This was the kinda intro you watched every single time you booted the game. I'll never forget sitting there with my brother watching this for the first time.

I'm a sucker for old arcade intros, specially for old SNK games

Third Strike and Capcom Vs. SNK 2 were the apex of late-90s-early-2000s cool are among my favorites arcade intro

For consoles, the intro for Atelier Iris rewired my brain when I was younger. I watched it on a loop

Heck yeah, arcade games , and especially fighting games, had the best intros to get you pumped up (and drop these precious coins) !
I could stare at Super Street Fighter 2 and Darkstalkers intros run in a loop at the arcades back then with no money in pocket

reminds me to age of racing games, now racing games are being rare because license or graphic are too costly for anyone to create.
but the recent arcade game tokyo extreme racer is still good for those who understand racing is not only about AAA graphic.

Just like it's title,post any game opening/intro that you think really hypes you to play the game.

Here's some:
Samurai Warriors 2

Kaido Battle A.K.A Tokyo Xtreme Racer Drift 2

Sengoku Basara Battle Heroes(game's kinda sucks tho)
