I just recently got into Launchbox and instantly fell in love with it, so I purchased lifetime premium licenses for both Launchbox and EmuMovies. See below for a video I made of my setup which I customized with Documentary videos of each of the consoles (link to all files below) I currently have in my Launchbox. I'll try to include more in the future, but I apologize ahead of time if my next updates takes a while as I'm just getting into this and still working out a few kinks (most notably, Arcade ROMs)
I also customized the platform videos (and some games) to show some of my favorite documentaries. The documentaries are taken from various sources, most notably Classic Gaming Quarterly (you should check his channel out). I edited them a bit to get to the relevant bits, but they're all fairly long videos (except maybe the NES one), but I made sure to edit them in a way that looks professional (or as much as I could get it) and assuming you will watch the entire video

PlayStation 2 Startup (This is the video I actually have my box set to. I cut the time between the sound and the PlayStation 2 text by a few seconds, but I also included the stock version in the file download) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXYVHOxhuYc
3:17 Arcade (I don't have that many games since these are the only ones I've been able to get working in MAME)

Hi Everyone!
I just recently got into Launchbox and instantly fell in love with it, so I purchased lifetime premium licenses for both Launchbox and EmuMovies. See below for a video I made of my setup which I customized with Documentary videos of each of the consoles (link to all files below) I currently have in my Launchbox. I'll try to include more in the future, but I apologize ahead of time if my next updates takes a while as I'm just getting into this and still working out a few kinks (most notably, Arcade ROMs)
I also customized the platform videos (and some games) to show some of my favorite documentaries. The documentaries are taken from various sources, most notably Classic Gaming Quarterly (you should check his channel out). I edited them a bit to get to the relevant bits, but they're all fairly long videos (except maybe the NES one), but I made sure to edit them in a way that looks professional (or as much as I could get it) and assuming you will watch the entire video
Will look to include more in the future, but you can download all the videos here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1KDxAMF55WJX7kJ7m9wdfPXLWrUoPjwLp
Also included in the zipfile are videos I used to replace some of the games' videos with some of my favorite YouTubers like videogamedunkey and AVGN
