Fictional Retro Games
Illustrations of fictional 1970-80s video game boxes that are computer game adaptions of films/TV shows. There’s a rather long history of lackluster video game tie-ins (1982’s E.T for example) that were clearly rushed, sharing very little of the storyline, look and behaviour of their respective films. This inspired a series of late ‘70s and ‘80s computer game boxes with modern themes, keeping only the bare minimum information. See the rest here
