For their time, video game cover art could hardly be considered “art”. Fast forward nearly 30 years, and the classic art of vintage video games has a rich nostalgia that inspires today’s creative mind. To celebrate our game art history, a new blog entitled Art of the Arcade collects and displays the artwork that built an industry, even a generation. To enjoy it, you have to see it for yourself. Start in the gallery below, then hit up ArtOfTheArcade.
