{The standard FBI warning text appears on a background with constantly shifting colors.}

TEXT: Federal law provides severe civil and criminal penalties for the unauthorized reproduction, distribution or exhibition of copyrighted motion pictures, video tapes or video discs. Criminal copyright infringement is investigated by the FBI and may constitute a felony with a maximum penalty of up to five years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine.

{The Videlectrix Mascot walks up, trips, then gives a thumbs up.}

Menus

Main Menu

The 1980s video game theme runs throughout the entire DVD's menus.

{The main menu has "Everything Else, vol. 3" flashing, the year 1982 and poorly-rendered versions of Homestar and Strong Bad's heads. After a while, if you fail to make a decision on what to see, a Puppet Stuff scene activates, in which the cartridge malfunctions and Puppet Homestar blows into it to repair it for Puppet Strong Bad.}

Section Menus

Each of the individual sections' menus, like the main menu, are themed after early 1980s video games.

  • Toons: A loop of Homestar running in The Field and jumping over The Stick, Marshie and other assorted stuff.
  • Shorts: The King of Town atop his castle dropping turkey legs off.
  • Holidays: The Cheat running around a maze collecting various power-ups.
  • Other Features: The heads of Strong Bad and Homestar shoot squares at each other and hide behind floating shields.
  • Bonus: The Limozeen spaceship shooting guitars and picking up ladies with a tractor beam.

Remarks

  • The screenshots inside the case are rendered in Atari 2600 rather than the usual Flash.

Real-World References

  • The case is modeled after the cases of video games produced by Activision in the early 1980s.
  • The Holidays menu is modeled after Dig Dug.
  • The Other Features menu appears to be an odd cross between Pong and Warlords.
  • The Bonus menu depicts a very Defender-looking scenario.
