JamesRobot | 6,268 Events Team · Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Alright which one of you guys sold this off? (And which one of you bought it?) Apparently was originally sold on NintendoAge back in tha day. Great nab at a great price in my opinion. Wish I would pay more attention to this kind of stuff. https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/12/random-an-unused-alternate-version-of-mega-man-3s-box-art-has-sold-on-ebay 1 2 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/9749-mega-man-3-alternate-artwork-sells-for-556/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaMan52 | 2,730 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Pretty cool. Nice to be able to see the entire picture after all these years, and it's also interesting that it differs somewhat from the final box art.

Bearcat-Doug | 5,133 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 If it sold as a NFT, it probably would have went for $556k! 1 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/9749-mega-man-3-alternate-artwork-sells-for-556/#findComment-256859 Share on other sites More sharing options...
phart010 | 1,809 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 It’s not the original. It’s just a cel.

CBsRetroTs | 15 Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Just stumbled across this post. I bought it I made hi-rez scans on the 3 cels that I bought. I'll make an album and link it here sooner than later. I also happened to get a MM3 proto around the same time. I plan to make a nice display case for the set! 3 1 2 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/9749-mega-man-3-alternate-artwork-sells-for-556/#findComment-349441 Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say "shoots people's penises". Does he shoot people in the penis? Or..... does his arm shoot out randomly generated people's pensises? Clarification is in order. 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/9749-mega-man-3-alternate-artwork-sells-for-556/#findComment-349546 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyree_Cooper | 962 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) true this is basically the same as the artwork that was used, but his face is considerably uglier here. i think the us of a really had the worst mega man artworks, but luckily the series was still a huge success there i mean look at what ico's american boxart did to the game Edited April 29, 2023 by Tyree_Cooper Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/9749-mega-man-3-alternate-artwork-sells-for-556/#findComment-349649 Share on other sites More sharing options...
