From [[AC 10th style|10th style]] to [[AC DistorteD|DistorteD]], once you have inserted your coins, you can press the VEFX button to bring up the Options menu. If you want to play Battle or Double in these styles, you need to select it at this time, ''before'' you press the Start button to begin the game.
