      Here's a boot splash screen of Gradius III for Super Nintendo. Also included a video of the process for those interested.

              These are amazing! I love the Defender one you did, you said you did it in Adobe Illustrator? Do you still have the .ai file? If so, could I please get it from you? I would love to have this on as my marquee sign for the bartop arcade I just built.

                @GameOfSoup Looks like I only used Illustrator for the RetroPie outline. The rest was done in Photoshop. I remember creating a brush to do the stars. So, sadly, I do not have the original vector, it was just a quick method to get the shape to send to Photoshop.

                      @GameOfSoup If you're wanting to print it out large, I can remake it. I really should start saving all my art. But I have trouble finding things so I often just don't bother saving. Haha.

                          @Rookervik It seems that I can't download the Link to the Past Splash Screen. It's giving me a 404 :(

                            All the splashscreens are available here: https://github.com/HerbFargus/retropie-splashscreens-extra

                            And you can easily install them via RetroPie-Setup. ;-)

                                  Dropbox has changed the way that they allow access to users' shared content. I will have to read up on the changes and update links to the video splash screens. When I have some more days off I will work on this. Sorry for the inconvenience.

                                    Ok, I found that I already have a repository for the splash videos, I just had not uploaded them because of my slow connection. I took the time to upload them and they can be downloaded from: https://github.com/ehettervik/retropie-splash-videos

                                      @Rookervik the turtle one with the pirate jig is my favourite

                                          @Rookervik doesn't matter. It's still the best. And he seems to have moved on to greener pastures anyhow

                                          Also if it isn't on the repo... You need to add it

                                            @herb_fargus I consider Link to the Past the best one. It took me days to program all the events and create the art :D

                                            Anyway, I can't find the Turtle Pi video. I have the game, still. So maybe some day I will re-record it.

                                            For now: added the GBA Bios splash video I never released, and the Raspberry Pi Sonic/Mario mashup. Check the repo for the files.
