      @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

      If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

      Also if you want a solution to your problems read this first: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

        @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.

                You are awesome!
                How about a little splashvideo of something in the Bubble Bobble 'esque for the builds based on this game?

                  Outstanding! Loving your work, will definitely be using these in my builds :)

                    @AndersHP Splash videos are considerably more difficult to design as they require me to get in a game-creation program called Construct and actually create a game. Then as the game is playing, I record a video of it for Retropie.

                    I have time for splash screens, but I don't know if I have the spare time to spend in videos. They often take 3 or 4 days to set up, unfortunately.

                      Is there a way to have a different splash screen every time I boot up? These are all quite amazing and I would love the option to mix them up and display them at random.

                        @brettoblaster Retropie comes with a wallpaper rotator now. It's in the splash screen section of RetroPie setup. I can't remember exactly the settings. But I figured out how to do it, and I suck at setting things up.

                                Bored on Monday. Decided to do Contra for NES. Not sure if anyone else did it. Tried a forum search but didn't find anything. Anyway, here it is.

                                    Felt like doing a Game Boy Color splash screen. The one, and only, Zelda I've ever beat fairly. Legend of Zelda DX for GBC.

                                    Now with added clouds and widescreen. What?! Yes, I know. :D

                                      @Rookervik The Zelda and the Contra splashscreens above are 640x360. Is it intentional?

                                          @lilbud oh! maybe imgur does some adjustments to the dimensions when accessing from a mobile device.
                                          Thanks

                                            And a little more Game Boy Color love... Always wanted to do Shantae. And now I have. Scary part? Drawing her hair and arm were the easiest parts by far.
