I know these pictures are part of the most recent I am 8-bit art show in LA. They've also long been sold. Boo. Take a look past the jump for the rest! Anyone want to name them all? Seems pretty easy to me but I imagine one or two giving some of the younger folk some trouble :)

Oh damn, those are awesome.

I really wish that bald, mustachioed bald man was Karnov, though.

pretty awesome. though the punchout image is a little wrong. Mac had a black shirt in the NES game. He was only a wireframe in the SNES game.

swiftwulf - he was green wire frame in the arcade version. I recognize the one with the moon lander and the rock, but forget the name of it.

I assumed the rock and moon lander game was Moon Patrol--does anybody know if that's right or not?

Moon Patrol it is. Great damn game.

Burgertime is one of my all time favorites. In fact it's the one arcade machine I want in my house. I'd love to have a cocktail version but I'm not made of money.

Burgertime on Intellivision was the shit!!! FINALLY, Intellivision got an exclusive arcade port...just in time for the whole damn industry to crash.

"Lock 'N Chase" on Intellivision was another strong title.

What's the one above Moon Patrol? I feel that it could be any of the beat-'em-ups like Final Fight, but I can't put a finger on the characters in the image.

Thanks. It's really great to see I am 8-bit giving publicity and recognition for videogame-centric artistic talent.
