+sixersfan105 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Noticed this on an Activision ad insert from another 7800 Activision game. Think this was supposed to be the original artwork or what?? Pretty strange... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Tyler Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 It actually looks like they used the artwork from the NES version of Double Dragon II: The Revenge. It's not uncommon for ads to use different artwork from time to time, or at least it wasn't during the early days of video games. Possibly they didn't have the final artwork yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayhem Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Yes, it's the artwork from Double Dragon 2 (it was also used for the C64, Spectrum, Amstrad etc conversions). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
