Not the best port, but by far the best cover art:

Re: Video Game Artwork
R-Type Special has some pretty nice creepy/trippy art in its booklet, and some cool ship sketches. Which is good, because the album itself is kind of lame - the poppy sound just doesn't gel with the first two games' grimy, metallic soundtracks or their atmosphere.
It's difficult to see without the huge full resolution, but there's a tiny "Bye² Bydo" inscription on the upper control rod in the second pic, ha.

Wow, from that first picture, I just realized that the blue test tube cockpit of the R-9A is almost exactly the same shape as the phallic Dobkeratops/H.R Giger Alien Head. Coincidence? I think not.

In other news, one of these threads (not sure if this one) made clear to me that the thing before R-Type ship looks like hands grasping a sphere.

Ain't seen nothin' yet ;] Back cover of MD Senjou no Okami II aka MERCS:
Holy shit. That is the exact mental image I get after unleashing a perfectly-timed BOMBA on a screenload of enemies and tanks.

Actually I don't like the more detailed character designs in Flashback (artwork and cutscenes), but the above picture displays the artist's insight into anatomy of human beings (too many video game artists are allowed to get away with none of it).

I wish Super Pitfall was intense as the cover. Or like 1/4 of how cool that looks.

I remember as a kid seeing all those pinball machines, and seeing girls with huge boobs with no bras. Good ole' days.
