I know, another attract sound thread. I was looking to turn on my Joust's sound, and I found a scan of the manual. In the book,it shows there being the option of "fancy attract mode" on the "settings" page, but on my machine, there is no option for it at all! Do some jousts just not have the option to have a "fancy" mode? Thanks!
 
I have no idea what the fancy mode is but it sounds interesting. On mine (probably all of them) you can program your own custom text for the into screen. Mine says Welcome to Mike's arcade...or something like that. Maybe this is what they mean.
 
On Robotron, Fancy Attract Mode makes the Williams logos circle around the border on the title screen. With it off, they don't do that. I don't know if I've ever heard of Joust having that option. Checking MAME, the 3 sets in there don't have that option.
