Worst art on a Vid? Regardless of gameplay.

Not the worst, but if we're going with cheese, Special Project Y at least beats Pit Fighter

In my collection I'd say "Frenzy".

Frenzy is one of my all time favorite games, but I agree the side art was terrible.

I would love to know who came up with the angry meatball that looks like he's having a bowel movement and is pooping out smaller angry meatballs.
 
You guys just posted three examples of some of the best artwork ever. WTF?
Best ever is out of the question, but they're not the worst either. The generic Vs. art is pretty bad, but the PlayChoice art is even worse. No thought put into the presentation at all, just slapped the Nintendo logo on there and picked a crappy font for "PlayChoice." Sad.

As much I love them because they are Taito games, I can see the generic colored Taito cabs as certainly not measuring up to the awesome enjoyment the games themselves provide.

I completely Disagree. That's how you make a nice artwork package, look at how clean that cabinet looks. All of Nintendo's stuff looked awesome. R Type had that same cabinet and it's a work of art, all three DK's looked incredible.
 
The Frenzy side art looks like how I'd draw Rosie O'Donnell as a cartoon character.

Ditto the Nintendo VS artwork, seems cheap and unimaginative, and pretty much any artwork that uses pictures of real people always seem cheesy. That Contra artwork for example looks like it was shot on the set of the original Land of the Lost series.

The Glob/Beastie Feastie. Great game--awful art.

Pit-Fighter is the worst game ever made. The art is appropriate for it!
