    Default Where to find posters for classic games?

    Is there any site out there that has posters for classic games, barring eBay? I'm more interested in posters for RPGs (especially the Lunar series), but any recognizable game will do.

    (Sorry if this is the wrong place for this topic.)

    Are you referring to Posters from Nintendo Power?

    I know you said no ebay, but there are Lunar posters that will show up on there every so often. I got a Silver Star Story poster from there for....$20? Something like that. I want to say it's about 2 x 3 feet. It's a good size. If your looking to not use ebay, I haven't seen much. There might be some sites out there, but other people might know them. Otherwise, you can always use the marketplace thread. Probably easiest if your not looking to use ebay.

    Yeah, I've seen the SSSC posters crop up on eBay, too. I'm still tempted to get one. There's an Eternal Blue poster up, as well (not EBC), but it's $75 and not in the greatest condition.

    Gamingking: Not referring necessarily to Nintendo Power posters. Just any old poster from a classic game (though many of the ones that I'd consider probably were featured in NP).

    I'd like to see someone with one of those poster-size laser printers out there make some based on classic game art. Blow up some cover art, clean up the image digitally, and run 'em off. That would be nice, to get some custom video game posters.

    Agreed. Alternatively, they could get a large-format scanner, scan in a bunch of real posters, and sell them, infringing on many copyrights at the same time. I may sound sarcastic, but I'm not. Maybe if enough people started doing this, game companies might take notice and sell promotional posters. That, or sue people into oblivion...
