Probably nothing. There isn't anything to see until you add a system/emulator. Press the "Tab" key and configure one.

You don't have the emulator configured correctly in Attract-Mode.

What emulator are using? Can you run the emulator properly without Attract-Mode?

If you figure out how to launch a game from the command line you'll have the settings you need for Attract-Mode.
