Rationale for fair use in Capcom vs. SNK 2[edit]

1. No free or public domain images have been located.
2. The image is of lower resolution than the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality.
3. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the product in any way.
4. This is the artwork, intended by Capcom and SNK for wide distribution. As such, it has future historical significance, and is a more appropriate choice than any other image available.
5. This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
6. The image is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original product in any way.

Licensing[edit]

This image is of a poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of posters to provide critical commentary on the film, event, etc. in question or of the poster itself, not solely for illustration on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
