people seem into these, so here are a couple more:

a background planning sheet from Sega, circa late-'80s—the Mega Drive had the provisional title of "Mark V", following Mark III (JP Master System being Mark IV), hence why a lot of early MD stuff's marked "MD5"

this pre-pro sheet from HAL's Metal Slader Glory for Famicom is one of the more optimised examples out there: it's broken into both 8x8 (minimum sprite size) & 16x16 (minimum area for BG palettes), with the red margins indicating what will/won't be impacted by overscan
