Because why not?
Here’s the first take on the boot screen...
... to which I then added a sprite and HDMA background.
But before I got code running, I tested the video modes by hardcoding certain test materials. This is 640x240 16 colors, automatically stretched down. You might recognize this image (edited as it was from a copy protection error screen)...
...as it was then edited into the first appearance of the system’s mascot Farrah.
Mind you, this is a mockup. If I cared enough right now I’d include a reproduced "INSERT CART" below the logo.
And because I felt bad about tracing from some semi-obscure MSX game’s copy protection screen, this was eventually replaced.
So then I felt bad about probably having messed up the proportions but I don’t feel like I can commission someone to do better and bluaaaagh.
So yeah, thanks to @foone for helping me out with what is for now the final version.
But speaking of Foone...
This one lasted for all of five minutes, as a joke.

Inspired by a post about that particular Microsoft logo, here's my laptop's custom boot screen. Just imagine the spinning dots are there too.
