A little more than 2 months ago we had a great article about Mega Drive (Sega Genesis) game cover arts. Many people enjoyed it very much, and many asked for a next post: Snes cover arts. And here they are.

Unfortunatelly, Snes cover arts are a little bit harder to find than the Mega's ones, but I've managed to find some cool ones. I really hope you guys enjoy these as much as I do. Cheers! ;)

Video-games keep inspiring a lot of children to start dealing with Computer Graphics.

Those games bring back some memories... I remember when street fighter first came out... I pleaded with my father to buy it.... He did eventually... I thinkhe saw it as a good trade off.. a few quid for a game = hours of quiet from us...

Thanks for sharing..

Street Fighter II was one of the most played games by me and my brother... and then I had Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country 2 between these ones.
SNES was the shit!

when street fighter 2 came out for the snes...
my thumbs bled for at least a year.

the best fighting game ever.

No Chrono Trigger? One of, if not the best, RPGs for the SNES and a quality cover. I'm sure the Atari and Commodore covers will be out soon enough.

Super Metroid!! LOVED that game. I recall spending hours and hours and hours in front of the TV with that one.

Not sure if the package design for these serves up much inspiration for me, but sure brings back memories.

For those things I like Abduzeedo =D

What? No Phalanx? How the hell can you make a post about SNES cover art and leave this game out? http://media.gamespy.com/columns/image/january03_covers_10s.jpg
