  I really do love the Wii U menus because when you turn up the gamepad volume, you start noticing that the music coming from it ant the TV is different, and that having both at the same time gives a weird 3D audio effect, which I like very much. Subtle Nintendo details here.

  I love how the OG Xbox has this otherworldly feeling that I absolutely adore, like it's an alien computer that crash-landed, Microsoft found and proceeded to mass-produce

  Something I can’t stand about the newer menus is that everything is an app, and they organize your Home Screen by most recent apps instead of most recent games, so my Home Screen is mostly comprised a single game followed by a bunch of apps like settings, users, store, etc.

  FYI the gray instead of black is an absolute must in ui design, as it's relaxing for the eyes but doesn't burn your retinas if the screen transitions to bright like it does if your eyes get used to a deep black background

  I remember the PS2 menu feeling strangely unsettling. There wasn't anything that looked like something in the real world, it was the void.

  Fun fact about the GameCube and PS2 menu's. GameCubes background music was an extremely slowed down mix of the FDS insert disk song, like to a ridiculous degree. As for the PS2's those towers you'd see when loading the systems UI were based on how many games and blocks of data each game used. If you had a game with larger save blocks the bigger the tower.

  Blades on the 360 wasn&apos;t a looker but it was so fast, way faster to navigate than the updated ones.

  Honestly, I think the Wii Pointer works extremely well for the Wii Menu, it&apos;s like using a mouse.
