@lilbud great work! They look realy good

Here's something I made as a proof of concept, let me know what you guys think :) I did this in Paint. The biggest flaw here is the color around the letters (blue and purple-ish), because the original lettering of the Neo Geo logo only has white and shades of grey. The font is bold Times New Roman, I used a size of 40pt.

@felleg did you see the Rookervik's video splashscreen with a very similar image?

felleg

@meleu No, in fact, I haven't! I downloaded the extra-splashcreens in bulk from the RetroPIe OS, and I couldn't see it in there. Can you please point me to it? For some reason, I'm having difficulty browsing this forum.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it! :) I added it to my folder. I think it's nice to have a video and a screen version. Just wondering, though, how does the selection process work for these screens? Why wasn't this video uploaded when I downloaded splashscreens from RetroPie?

@felleg You have to submit a Pull Request to the splashscreen repository

felleg

@lilbud Gotcha! I'm not a github expert, but I tried to create the file in the repository. We'll see what happens. If you're able to create a better version of the image, that would be fine by me as well! :)

I used to love that show. I was actually playing the NES game two nights ago. Not terribly fun when played with the computer, but I bet it would be a trip to work into a retro gaming night with friends.
