Unused Graphics#

Some menu graphics went unused, simply because Xbox Live Arcade didn't get a lot of games.

Highlighted arrows for the main menu. There's only 8 options.

Leftovers for what seems to be an early version of the main menu. The arrows are blue, and the A button prompt is longer. There's also a gray version of this prompt.
