In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and {{forwiiu}}, the Z, ZL and ZR buttons can all be [[Controls|customized]] on their own to do other functions, while in {{for3ds}}, ZL and ZR are coded to do the same functions as the [[R]] and [[L]] buttons, respectively. Prior to [[version]] 1.0.5 of the game, these buttons' functions were reversed, so ZL would trigger the same actions as L and ZR would trigger the same actions as R, though their functions outside of battle (such as in menus) were the same as in current versions. On the [[character selection screen]] in ''Smash 3DS'', the ZR button is also used to scan [[amiibo]] to the lower screen and register them for battles. | In ''[[Super Smash Bros.
