The iconic attract mode for Nihon Bussan's (Nichibutsu) 1985 arcade shoot 'em up Mag Max!

Before dropping in a coin to take on the mechanical dragon Babylon, arcade visitors were drawn in by this futuristic demo. It showcased the game's unique dual-perspective battlefield (switching between surface and underground terrain) and demonstrated how players could collect robot limbs and torso parts to transform their small ship into a giant mecha.

Game: Mag Max (マグマックス)
Publisher / Developer: Nichibutsu (Nihon Bussan) (1985)
