I suppose we all have one rare poster of retro vidya that we absolutely must frame. I've been meaning to find a place I can get a decent custom frame job done for a reasonable price, but no luck yet.

Post your prized posters.

This is mine:
1997 Japanese poster for DRAGON BALL FINAL BOUT. Only one I've ever seen. Prized because the cover of the game is the only place you really see Goku with an evil look on his face.

>tfw Final Bout had a second printing in the USA after Funimation put GT on TV, collapsing the value of anyone's Final Bout copies acquired before

That game was around $500 at one point

It's still pretty high for an original given that the second one is a different publisher, different cover art, etc.

you could just figure out the dimensions and do it yourself for cheap.

some sizes are hard to do though, still don't have one for that afterburner poster as if i recall it's a uncommon size

We're talking about a company that kept creating high budget productions for a section of the IP we hated, no matter how many times we said no.

These people could reprint a FFVII for PSX and put it on Walmart shelves, and still make more than XIII.

I wish I had a poster of this...

The only thing I have is the poster that came with diakatana... and that probably isnt worth anything.

I love my Space Channel 5 poster. The Rockman Dash ones are pretty neat too, though, they are recent additions. I just framed them all myself using cheap poster frames I bought from Micheal's. I didn't do the best job, but it looks okay. Those frames are a bitch to work with.

Why don't games come with posters anymore. I can remember when just about every SNES game came with a poster for that particular game.

Holy shit, really?

Oh man, I remember having this game and played it with my brothers, always had a laughing fit with the yellow gorilla because only his ass fit in the screen compared to how tiny any other character was. No matter how shitty it was, we still had fun.

Man, good times.
