Nice (if you are into Nintendo). Good to not have characters underneath the buttons / sticks. I would add some surroundings / arrows around the buttons / sticks myself and increase the text size of the marquee to make the title more stand out.

Personally I would have the text a little more dominant in the marquee. You would probably need to do some test runs with backlighting before doing a final decision for the color scheme,
