Finally got Castlevania III which I have always found to be the absolute best looking and most artful NES game. Here is the first screen on my tiny Sony PVM.
What makes this stand out is they do not so much use tiles to draw a map as use half-size tiles to paint a picture. The little tiles are allowed to join in ways that look good but they weren't all designed to join exactly on way or another.
Any other games/art apply this?
The music that goes with this opening is really something.

@PsySal sometimes when C64 games do character mode backgrounds with custom tiles mixing fg/bg colors to create variation they get kind of messy and expressionistic in a way that i like. this was the concrete example i could think of but there are plenty of others.

Pregevole lezione di educazione finanziaria immobiliare di Marco Liera. Con i rudimenti per valutare la convenienza a investire in abitazioni o a venderle.
In omaggio, punzecchiature ai poveri locatori brevi, indigenti immaginari.

Il 28 ottobre 1955 nasce Bill Gates, cofondatore di Microsoft con Paul Allen. Durante gli studi ad Harvard crea una versione del BASIC per l’Altair 8800, da cui nasce l’azienda. Microsoft domina il software con Windows e Word.
Gates lascia la guida nel 1999 per dedicarsi alla Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, impegnata in salute, istruzione e povertà. Rimane tra i più ricchi e influenti al mondo in ambito tecnologico e filantropico.
