Created attachment 333323 [details] [review] Improve the resume dialog "Main menu" is very unclear in this context: is that the main menu of the Games application or the main menu of the game? "Title screen" might be a more descriptive wording, but at the same time it is better to use verbs for buttons. In this case, we do have a great verb to use, "Reset", as a physical reset button is common on many video games consoles.

Created attachment 333325 [details] [review] Drop the cancel button when starting a game The player just asked us to start a game, why would they want to cancel? This seems like such a rare use-case that we don't need a button here, especially as there's a workaround: they could just resume, and click the back arrow to get back to the home page. This makes the resume dialog less heavy, as it felt very crowded with 3 buttons for just a short line of text.
