Stephen King's IT — Arcade Game

Available · one owner only

Archive note

Japanese arcade flyer advertising a 1984 game center release of Stephen King's IT as an arcade game, featuring Pennywise the Dancing Clown looming over pixelated child victims. The poster promises the horror of King's novel translated into coin-op form, with character roster art suggesting a multi-player survival mechanic. Recovered from a Famicom-era game magazine; the game itself appears never to have materialized in any region. Appeals to collectors of lost horror IP adaptations and alternate 8-bit gaming history.
