Video Games have always had Flyers. Some people collect stamps, some people comics, even cigarette stickers. As a kid I collected Super Trump playing cards and Star Wars pictures in bubble gum packs. Trading and collecting of this type of item has always been popular.

Video Games have some of the best flyers of any industry. Primarily flyers were used to advertise a new game when it was released. Back in the 1980's before satellite, cable TV and the advent of MTV etc video games were advertised in print. As a result there are literally hundreds of flyers. Some of them incorporated top rate artwork and designs, some were just naff.

Today a lot of the games from the 80's still stand up well against modern games for their game play and longevity, but the flyers show their true age. Nothing dates as quickly as advertising. The typeface, the clothes worn, the colours used in some of these flyers will make you laugh and also maybe a little embarrassed because you were probably wearing the same clothes or thought that the advert made the game look really cool man! But hey this was the 80's and the flyers are the time capsules so indulge yourself, have a look go on I dare you!
