The pal version of nes box art is like a lost piece of 90s Art. As someone who grew up in that era, I sometimes miss that variety of art works in the past days. I remember a much different version of my box art, but that’s just me.
Ah yes the version of mega man where he fights Mark Twain.
I look when I find out my cat vomited on the carpet. Cutest time of our lives.
What about the days when games came with instruction booklets?
And the really good booklets were full of artwork depicting characters, enemies and locations you’d see in the game? These days you don’t even get a disk in the box with most console games, but they do find the room to include an advertisement (usually)
I thought this was an upcoming Netflix series, even though I’m not a man of culture. Even then, press releases for that movie were like, “okay guys, we know that last Street Fighter movie was a mess. But we’re going to get this right, and we really respect the games.”
Love this! Imagine being commissioned to make something so beautiful that would stand the test of time.
Dr. Wily looks like like Lee van Cleef trying to play Albert Einstein.

Growing up in the late 80s and early 90s kinda sucked. It was like adults were willingly blind. Megaman? Oh yea that guy with the gun. Bowser? Oh yea that normal human guy with a weird mohawk who likes to wear business suits. Street Fighter? Oh yea that videogame about a paramilitary force where Guile is the main character. Also he’s Belgian.
The Street Fighter movie is a goddamn masterpiece, and I’ll sonic boom anyone who says otherwise. Bison must had laid you on Bison dollars to shill that opinion.
“You. got. paid?”
Yeah, i remember it being a lot more, uh. well this:

This looks like what would happen if you put “realistic Mega Man” into Dall-E a hundred times and cherry picked the worst result you got.
Even for back in the day, this is ugly. Even whatever 9 or 10 year old me decided to never play the game because the cover art looked so fucking dumb. Not that the artwork for MM2 was much better, but Nintendo Power told me the game cool, so…

Megaman looks like he wants you to get the fuck out of your car NOW and he’s not going to tell you TWICE.
