Let me see if I can make a version with a MAME logo instead of the BigBox logo today. Shouldn't take too long...

I'm afraid I may have an unfair advantage — I'm a professional graphic designer using Adobe After Effects. I typically get my gameplay videos from emumovies, but I made my own for these DOS games. Then I simply make a "slideshow" of the gameplay videos, and make a separate logo animation. Finally, I combine the slideshow and logo animation and render out the final video. The secret, however, is that I have a source for "template" After Effect projects. I'll open up a slideshow template of my choice, drop in my assets (gameplay videos, logo files), tweak the project to my liking, add in some extras of my own, and add an audio track of my choice; I'll do the same for the logo animations. This workflow allows me to make these kinds of videos in about thirty minutes (not including render time, which can take up to an hour or more, depending on the complexity of the animation).

Awesome, I love it! Obviously, I use a specific music track that I feel fits with the vibe and flow of each video, but I fully encourage everyone to substitute their own preferred music for their own purposes. I don't mind at all putting it here - I can't upload your version of the video without it becoming the "primary" version, so it's as good a solution as any.

Aw, thanks! Glad you like my vibe.

Best theme I've seen so far. The level of polish in here is incredible.

If you have ideas for other taglines, please share! I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks! I went back and forth on the tagline. My intent was to make a tagline not for BigBox per se, but for the overall experience; this is because the user never actually directly interacts with each emulator.
