* Tournament {{fighting game}}s with taunt buttons are so common that it's almost a [[IncrediblyLamePun tauntology]] and not worth listing every example of.

* In ''VideoGame/JediKnightII'', Kyle had an IdleAnimation whereby he would twirl his lightsaber with the Force in his hand while waiting around. This could be activated with the "Taunt" command which could be set to a particular key if you wanted. When activated yourself you could do it with the lightsaber still on so you'd twirl it and the blade would harmlessly pass through your body.

* ''VideoGame/YourOnlyMoveIsHustle'' has rather long taunts--you can be vulnerable for upwards of ''fifty'' frames on some characters, a lifetime in fighting game terms. In return though you can style on people and earn some meter for doing so.

** ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' has generally refrained from featuring taunts in its games, but they made [[ParodiedTrope an amusing reference to this]] in ''VideoGame/MortalKombat1'', which lists "Taunt" as an action in the move list, which is pulled off by crouching repeatedly (i.e. "teabagging"). However, performing this action locks your character into their idle animation, leaving them open to getting attacked if your opponent is still up, meaning it's more of [[VideoGameCrueltyPunishment a taunt]] ''[[VideoGameCrueltyPunishment deterrent]]''.

* ''VideoGame/TrialsOfMana''--in both the original SNES game and the UpdatedRerelease, Vuscav the turtle has a horn that can be honked while riding him, but it otherwise does nothing except make an amusing sound.
