* ''VideoGame/KasumiNinja'' on the UsefulNotes/AtariJaguar has a variation of this for its single-player mode, where you walk around a round dungeon-like room and go up to statues of the game's characters to select them. First the one you want to play as -- you only have [[{{Ninja}} Habaki]] and [[PaletteSwap Senzo]] to start with, but you unlock more as you beat them -- and then the one you want to fight.

* In the [[UsefulNotes/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem SNES]] version of ''[[VideoGame/RocketKnightAdventures Sparkster]]'', the [[PasswordSave password menu]] has you play as Sparkster and input the password by hitting the boxes with his sword.

* The first five UsefulNotes/PlayStation installments of the ''VideoGame/NamcoMuseum'' series have their menu screens take the form of a [[MuseumGame literal museum]], played in a first-person 3D perspective, where each game has its own exhibition room. The exhibits include development information and game-related merchandise, as a real museum would, while the games themselves are played by interacting with replicas of their real-life cabinets. Game options are accessed by interacting with a receptionist at the front entrance, and additional rooms house miscellaneous content: a library includes magazine scans and concept art while the SoundTest is accessed via a jukebox. The games can also be accessed through a more traditional list-based menu, which subsequent ''Namco Museum'' installments also use.

* Happens in ''Concerned Joe'' from Website/ArmorGames, starting with the logos, going through the main menu, and finishing with the ending. There's not much of a NoFourthWall.

* A bland ''VideoGame/StreetFighter'' [[ShoddyKnockoffProduct knockoff]] on the NES made by ASDER, called ''Fighting Hero'', also has a [[HubLevel similar feature]] for the country selection. [[HitboxDissonance Only this time, it didn't work]].
