N64/Gamecube era: I'm going to hype you up with a cinamatic intro and also I'm going to render a whole interactive 3D space with a catchy theme song for my title screen and save select screens.

Modern era games: Lol heres a .png of our promotional art and a piano tinkling. No intro.

I'm getting old.

    I think part of this is because you use menus way less now that consoles have sleep modes/ quick resume. Like I played TotK for 100+ hours but I maybe used the main menu like 2 times bc I could just wake my switch and resume right where I left off. For old games you had to use them every time you played the game
