I always liked the cover for the original Megaman where he really looks like a 35 year-old man.  |

 When I first got this game, I thought it was called Ninja AME (I pronounced it Ah-May) Gaiden. Had a good laugh at my younger self years later when I found out it was the kanji for Gaiden. |

Super Mario Bros. on the NES. I never noticed before, but Mario dies on the cover...  Really, the Black Box NES series of covers as a whole are all fantastic, IMO. |

80's and 90's Western boxart was wild as f***, man. Mega Man 2's was almost as good as the first game.  |

I've always hated this one for the ugly ass way the logo is just slapped on there. |

Somewhere, there is a former employee of Jemco who knows the story of that Phalanx cover, and I hope that someday they speak out. |

The story is that they knew they had an average shoot-em-up game and wanted to make it stand out on the shelves amongst all the other shoot-em-up games so they put the hillbilly on the cover to get people's attention. That's it. And no, the hillbilly has nothing to do with the game. |
