Summary

[edit]
Non-free media information and use rationale true for Hong Kong 97 (video game)
Description

This is the cover art for Hong Kong 97, an unlicensed Super Famicom game created by Yoshihiza "Kowloon" Kurosawa and a programmer from Enix. The game was intended as a mockery of the video game industry. The cover art is a combination (derivative work) of copyrighted elements from four different images: a photograph of Bruce Lee, a photograph of Deng Xiaoping, a photograph of Chinese soldiers, and a photograph of blue sky. A faux copyright notice at the bottom attributes the cover to HappySoft, a company which never existed.
A high quality scan of the cover art was uploaded to the Internet Archive by the Ultra Healthy Video Game Nerd, a YouTuber who owns a rare copy of the game and made a comprehensive video about its history. The scan has been reduced in size. Also, because the scan was pretty dark, the uploader increased the brightness with 12 and the exposure with 40 using Pixlr X (https://pixlr.com/x/).
