I like the second one, but would consider adding a whole host of smaller characters in the background.

I like the second one just as it is in terms of layout. You don't want anything too busy when you'll have all those buttons in the way. However, I think having such detailed elements alongside such basic elements looks a little off. I'd spruce up the background and lightning bolt and call it a day.

Looks fine, but what's with the white around the Capcom and SNK logos?
WTB: The Grid by Midway (2001), looking for 2 or more complete games, and large marquee

I was thinking much smaller than that, or at least knocked back to 50% transparency or something. The background characters really need to be more subdued.

i think that last one looks really good, maybe if you change the colour and design of the lightning bolt to blend in a bit more with the characters

the vacant blue area near the player 2 joystick looks out of place i think
