It's something I miss about retro games is when they show instructions and gameplay (without music) which is a legacy from the arcade.

Metal Slug instructions allways takes me back to better days when i still had hair.

D&D SOM. You get cuts of each character archetype showing off what they can do, punctuated by screens of their artwork, stat spreads, and descriptions. The presentation is also pretty stylish!

I always liked attract screen's that showed secrets to someone paying attention or had little Easter Eggs. Blood's attract screen showing off 2 hidden item caches in the first room, or the infamous UMK3 attract screen that showed off both hidden unlockable characters and the Red Herring Easter Egg Rain.

I always liked how SNK put a tutorial for people to see and learn to play their games

Is fast, simple and doesn't interrupt the game. And those sound effects Always attract someone ?

The reason should be obvious.

X-Men Vs Street Fighter has the best attract mode based on the handshake alone.

I'm cheating with this since it has music, but I really love the ddr supernova attract mode (especially since it means the cab is free and I get to use it uninterrupted).

And Super Metroid showing secret techniques once you've beaten the game.

9-year-old me would get SO hyped when I heard this playing from the corner of a restaurant or pizza place!

I like the "Kata" sequences that play in Namco fighting games after you're idle on the Title Screen.

Tekken 4

Soul Calibur
