In-game screenshot
The most common type, should show all the gameplay variations, special sections like end-of-level bosses included.
Title screenshot
This will show the title art, and occasionally the game credits.

The package containing the game media. Useful to view copyrights and sometimes the release date, just like the title screen.

For intros, outros, and in-game animations.
