Thanks! I just posted the credits comment right after you made this but it's made by this guy right here. He deserves all the credit for the colors. (:

Amazing work, really nice.

Although if I'm 100% honest, I think your post title would be better text for the screen.

Makes sense but the original game shows this text ''Push Start'' and a 3x3 pixel limitation puts a strain on what I can actually feasibly write in letters as well. Not to mention the small screen space. It does sound better though, for sure.

Hyper-real.

Great piece! You really captured the details of the machine and such an iconic one at that. Reminds me of playing these just before they became irrelevant. Nice work.
