8-Bit Nintendo Box Art for Alfred Hitchcock Classics

Here's a great series of 8-bit style Nintendo box art featuring three of Alfred Hitchcock's classic movies, Psycho, The Birds, and North By Northwest. These are incredibly fun designs, and I wish these movie games actually existed! I bet they'd be awesome. The illustrations were created by Joe Spiotto for for an upcoming show at Gallery 1988, Suspense & Gallows Humor: A Tribute to the All-Time Greatest. Here's a note from the artist:
