@deathsmileyinc Both. Designing it is not all that much of an accomplishment. A small bootloader program inside the Gameboy first loads the logo graphics, then checks that everything is correct and if so start the program. If you would just replace the logo, the second check wouldn't pass, so what the cartridge does is show a piece of memory containing the logo first for a brief moment, and then switch back to the normal memory contents to pass the test and boot.
Cool!
