/vr/ - Retro Games

I'd love to get some reprints of retro posters like this Altered Beast, Bubble bobble or rainbow islands

>>2431731
that's gorgeous artwork

>>2431786
As much as I disliked that game... that concept art is amazing.

>>2431691
Mario's old assets have aged pretty well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnU-2HRJNO4
He's gotten bubblier and more friendly, but his old stuff wasn't BAD or anything.

>>2431814
>oh sweet, I can play six-player koopa-shell volley-ball with Mario characters!

Magic Sword's main art with all the heroes.
There's two versions along with a pretty cool homage version by someone who is not akiman.
I'd post all three together but one has a female nipple and I'd worry mods would get mad.

I have this huge lenticular Sega Nights hanging display thing.

>>2431843

looks oddly familiar...

>>2431801
yes they have

A Link to the Past

>>2432239
timeless artwork

I wish there was a modern Double Dragon that accurately reproduces the look of the promo art of the early games. None of that satirical bullshit from Neon.

>>2431691
When did the colour flip happen?

>>2431731
just put a jpg on a thumbdrive and walk to a copyshop. give him ~10 coins and the guy makes the jpg into a poster.
you can put whatever you want on your walls in 2015

>>2432698
Would love to find a larger version of that

>>2433383
I wanna say either SMB3 or SMW

>>2433439

Me too.

>>2431817
This looks like the style of that Ben Itoh or whatever guy who drew the metroid, starfox, and secret of mana comics in nintendo power

>>2431731
>Those scanlines on the title font

>>2433449

Those are by Katsuya Terada

>>2433461
Wow. I absolutely love this

why is Mario on cover twice lol

>>2433448
Super Mario World... Christmas?

>>2433504
Three times*

Wish Kazumi Kakizaki had an actual online presence instead of just doing historical-themed manga for educational books.

>>2433504
Mario looks really angry here

>>2433508
there are a lot of these puzzles with nice SMW images, sadly I couldn't ever find bigger resolution versions.

>>2433570

Well, the SML locations were different than his usual strolls, he had to go through some /x/ shit in that game.

>>2433504
It was comforting finding out years later that those guys you kill by the dozen in the fourth level are just chinese folklore vampire ghosts or whatever, and not just chinese people.

>>2433458
It's glorious. They actually took a photo of the title screen IN an actual screen and collaged that shit up. And it works, God forgive me it works

>>2433608
it does look pretty cool

>>2433659
>perfect high resolution scans never

>>2433671
>when deviart meets nintendo power

>>2433675
>clip-art dragon

>>2433461

>>2433704
Thanks for the higher res. I'll do some color-work on this to fix it up a bit

>>2433710

Nice work! Did you change any color or just worked with levels?

>>2432002

not as gay though

My favorite /vr/ poster is anonymous, followed by Don Rumata

>>2433951
Just worked with the levels and contrast.

Thanks for the compliment :)

More MGS

>>2434450
some of those dudes look ridiculous

>>2434249
>There will never be a Double Dragon manga by Kazumi Kakizaki.

>>2432580
What the fuck this looks like some hokuto no ken shit, that's badass

>>2436013
It's promotional art for the Famicom version of Double Dragon.

This is my favorite poster, and also you may be interested on this thread I just made about it...

>>2436806

>>2436809
That's beautiful

The art for the Metal Gear 2 cartridge

>>2437660
moar

Posters are for kids and people with no sense of style.

I used to get the german club nintendo magazine and at one point they had those really neat N64 spaceship posters. Like you see the controller and the console in space with a lot of little windows and spaceship elements added to it. It looked great. I wish I could post it but it's completely gone. didn't find it on the net either.

>>2433675
>np ed: I got it, let's shit over this awesome poster with this stupid fucking dragon. That'll be totally sweet!

>>2437675
it really doesn't fit the scene.

>implying a red dragon lives nearby this fucking tree.

>>2431820
looks really cool.

>>2434450
It's like they got done with sparkman and then just said fuck it. I love old badly drawn megaman art.

>>2437697
this scares me.

>>2437665

>>2437675
they also fucked with the color balance to make it appear that there's a fog or haze around the bottom of the tree

>>2437697
I wonder if that was a multiple artist endeavor. Spark Man and Needle Man are mostly on-model, but the rest were given those weird soft expression human faces.

>>2437665
says the unemployed 'independent artist' living off their parent's savings and/or public assistance

But-ten Ohara’s Suit-cha Luck-a Dog-Fight aka Acrobatic Dog-Fight

alternate version

>>2431691
Wow OP, thanks so much for posting that picture. I saw it on a childhood album and I always loved the fuck out of it

>>2439156
whoa whoa what is that game?

>>2439186
treasure of the rudras

>>2433441
I do belive that SMB3 Mario had black overalls and a red shirt. In SMW he definitely had blue overalls and a red shirt.

>>2433504
We'll never get a Mario game as unique and different as this ever again.

>>2433383
>>2433441
>>2440771
Super Mario Bros. 3 definitely. The US version of Super Mario Bros. 2 and also had wearing the blue overalls in-game.

>>2440792
>The US version of Super Mario Bros. 2
Which came out a month later after Super Mario 3 I forgot to add.

>>2439886
Reminder that it should have been called just Super Casltevania, or Demonic Castle Dracula.

>>2439164
Is there a version of this without the bottom text? IF not I might try to make one

>>2439192
Is it good? artwork looks pretty sweet

>>2440847
Not that guy, but it's alright. The magic system is completely unlike anything else though. You cast spells by typing in letter combinations. You don't even need to learn them first and can just make shit up by typing in random words and seeing what effect they have.

It apparently BOMBED in Japan though and the head developer was fired for it.

>>2440858
>typing

Er, you know what I mean.

>>2440829
What's this from?

>>2441164
darkstalkers

>>2440858
Huh. Sounds like it's worth a try if there's an English version available

>>2431691
This artwork is hilarious if you think about it.

1. Mario is jumping AWAY from the princess while she's still in captivity

2. What the fuck is Bowser looking at?

3. Why the hell are the toads so happy? THEY'RE SHACKLED TO A BALL AND CHAIN

>>2431691

>>2441643
does anyone have a higher res of this

>>2432032
I'll take those colors and that Peach over the modern equivalents any day.

>>2432239
Ah, when posters weren't always just gigantic cast shots.

>>2440797
You don't need to remind people about things that are common knowledge.

>>2440797
>Casltevania

>>2439176
you're very welcome. I found that from a high-res pic of the cartridge. It had some stains on it (you can notice them in the sun most easily) that I'll try to fix on photoshop

>>2441275
that terrified koopa on the pipe is cracking me up

>>2431691
I had this as a jigsaw puzzle as a child and loved it so much. The colors were so vibrant, and I think it was the first time I saw Mario with brown hair.

Aside from what's already been posted, this is one of my favorites.

>>2441643
Zelda 2 Artwork

>>2442559
more

>>2433415
Yeah, but that quality. It's gotta be max quality source and good paper.

>>2442578
Yeah but there are quite a few very high-res images in this thread

>>2442697
love the "Sega" on the car

>>2442697
I still remember playing this game as a kid in the 80's. It started my obsession with Ferraris, and the Testarossa in particular.

>>2439161
>Impregnated average contents 16 room's wars

I would genuinely like to know the message that they were trying to convey here.

I like European Mega Man art.

Have a Gradius

Anyone have a posterable version of the art on the first Castlevania cartridge? Would totally print that.

>>2434325
you'd be pissed if you kept getting dumped down pits for a higher jump

>>2443034
still pretty fucking weird but it looks way better than the American alternatives

>>2443090
Beautiful. Exactly the kind of thing that would look great on a wall

>>2434450
How the fuck does Magnet Man even see

>>2433675
i still have this poster.

>>2443410
With his optic sensors

>>2443970
I love this. Which Zelda is this again?

>>2443090
I'm trying to find a big sized version of the art in pic related that isn't cropped like another I found, any help?

>>2444032
This is the other one I found

>>2444032
I just googled for large "Gradius II" images on google

>>2444038
Fuck

thank you anyways anon

>>2444023
A Link to the Past. I miss the days of watercolors in official art

>>2444284
His eyes look creepy as fuck in this

>>2444038
I think this would look better if it were blue rather than green

>>2433675
What possessed the, to do that? Honest question

>>2445513
Well I fucked that up.

What possessed them to do that?*

It was actually Super Mario Land.

>>2433504

>>2448238
lol'd

>>2445513
dunno, you'd have to track down the retard that thought that'd be a good idea

>>2433675
>>2433671
I'm a pretty big amateur but as a proof of concept couldn't someone do something like this?

>>2443215

Am i the only one yes I'm aware the answer to any question starting with this is always no who never did this once in SMW

>>2441698
not perfect but not terrible

>>2452163
I wanna play that game ;)

>>2433597
>those guys you kill by the dozen in the fourth level are just chinese folklore vampire ghosts or whatever, and not just Chinese people.

But they are chinese people.

Just undead.
