megaman, megaman 2, and megaman 3 america covers are what happen when u get ur friend to do art for ur coding project instead of a professional.
@root Those are classic covers, tho.
for how bad they are
@root All the game covers then were terrible.
@root I'm sorta worried about what's going to happen to Rockman in that Japanese cover. I've seen Hentai.
@root That aesthetic hasn't really changed in terms of gaming art.
You have a valid point, mind. I'm not disagreeing.
The box has always been there to sell the product, though- and even more so in the pre-internet era of 1987.
sure, but it makes a good game look soulless when you do that, at least try as with the rockman covers. that's what im getting at
@Surasanji
the point is the american artist clearly didnt understand anything outside the idea of a main character that was a full grown man in a spandex suit with a handgun. the rockman cover is true to the character design and shows more care for the aesthetic of the game rather than the advert aesthetic of "what sells to teenage boys in the 80s?"
