You can, however either pity or laugh at the Pac-Man one... it is just awful. XD

I, too, dig Bowser, but Kirby will give me nightmares for all eternity.

That's kind of false advertising, too. I don't think Mario/Jumpman even has a hammer in the game.

And for Pac Man, they should've gone with something like that Pac Man t-shirt that hipsters always wear.

I'm pretty sure you could grab a hammer to destroy incoming barrels for a short amount of time.

What is it with game boxart trying to make a game look far more epic than it actually is?

Because a lot of these games needed the epic. Let's face it; some of them had crappy settings.

Yeah, but the epic box art is just setting you up to be disappointed by the non-epic actual game.

Not the worst box art I've seen, but still pretty bad. Honestly, how hard is it to draw Mega Man?

Why is Dr. Light the one sending Drill Man to fight Megaman?
