Image promoting Ninja Turtles for NES

I found this image that promoted Ninja Turtles 1 for the NES. It shows Raphael emerging from the Living Room floor with the NES nearby.

There's more to the pic, but I was able to tone it down.

Also, I don't think this was posted before; however, if it was; sorry.

It's a great ad! And probably one of the most famous video game promotional images ever!

The fact that this image was EVERYWHERE back in the day helped insure that the first TMNT game sold like hot cakes and gave birth to a generation of angry video game nerds.

LOL, for a minute I thought this thread was about Image Comics promoting TMNT games. hehe

I'm pretty sure that image was part of an ad that I've seen on the back of some TMNTA issues.

Me three lol. This ad was everywhere. It's a good ad though. What I always found funny about this game is that as I got older, I found out where the cover art came from, and I wondered.... why the heck is there a Transmat on the cover? lol

Add me to that list too. I definitely though it was a promotion from Image Comics for an old NES game, then I realized what it actually was when I was done reading the post.
