The American Mega/RockMan NES box art is what always comes to mind for me. All 6(!) of the games got pretty bad box arts, but the 1st is an iconic rush-job attempt to make him more mature and badass: https://gaming.stackexchange.com/q/238841

That was the first video game I bought myself.
This cover art is beautiful in comparison, looks like a proper B movie poster.
