Video style itself is like a more calm Ashens, which is probably what you went for, and that's all right with me. Subbed, mate.

The reason the titles are removed is to not infringe trademark law, which is enforced differently to copyright law. So, if a bootlegger were located somewhere where the copyright for the games aren’t enforced, but the trademarks are, removing the title logos from the games could allow them to continue making bootlegs unimpeded by Nintendo and law enforcement. That’s of course why the GameBoy showed the Nintendo logo on the boot screen. The Nintendo logo displayed on a GameBoy on boot is located on the game cartridge, and the GameBoy checks if the boot image on the game cartridge matches Nintendo’s logo. If the is a mismatch, the game won’t launch, if there is a match, Nintendo could potentially take action for trademark infringement.
