Allows you to enable a blue-light filter with settings at certain degrees Kelvin, the default setting being 6500K and the range being from 1200K-10000K - if edited through <code>Advanced configuration...</code> instead, the range is 1000K-25100K. The <code>Enhance (top/bottom) screen colors</code> option edits the screens color curve for IPS displays to be more in-line with normal sRGB displays. The <code>Advanced configuration...</code> option also allows you to edit other values; gamma range 0.00-8.00, contrast range 0.00-255.00, brightness range -1.00-1.00, or invert colors. This setting's chosen option will not be saved and applied on boot unless you select the <code>Save settings</code> option or edit it via the <code>config.ini</code>.

			A menu with New 3DS specific hardware and software options. Allows you to manually change how much CPU and L2 cache is given to the active title - this can also be changed in Luma3DS Configuration for all games. Enabling both extra clock speed and L2 cache may reveal hidden bugs in games, to unknown effect. Allows you to temporarily disable Super-Stable 3D; permanent disabling can still be done in System Settings. You can also test parallax barrier positions, or calibrate Super-Stable 3D's center position.

After a confirmation button press, powers off ({{B\|A}}) or reboot ({{B\|Y}}) your console. Note that powering off this way takes longer to fully shut down compared to doing it from the POWER button menu, however the reboot option takes far less time than both the <code>Power off</code> Rosalina option and manually rebooting via the POWER button.
