[edit] Fair use rationale for Lego Soccer Mania

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Lego Soccer Mania
Description	Game cover for Lego Soccer Mania
Source	http://www.cdaccess.com/jpg/shared/front/large/legosocc.jpg. Promotional material released by the game publisher, or derived from a digital capture (scan/photo) of the game cover. The creator of this digital version is irrelevant, as the copyright will still be held by the game publisher.
Article	Lego Soccer Mania
Portion used	Entire front of cover used.
Low resolution?	Yes.
Purpose of use	The primary means of visual identification for the subject of the Lego Soccer Mania article.
Replaceable?	Copyrighted game cover, so no free alternative can exist.
Other information	It is inconceivable that the use of a low resolution image of the box art in any way limits the game publishers ability to sell the game. It is also not of sufficient resolution to be usable for box art on bootlegged games. The use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible, as game publishers often release the box art online in advance, for promotional purposes.
