[edit] Fair-use in List of light gun games

Although this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the United States of America (U.S.) fair use laws because:

• It is a low-quality photograph of game covers that does not compete with the manufacturer's ability to market or profit from the games themselves.
• The image resolution is lower than the original cover art.
• The image is used for identification and critical commentary of the games pictured therein. The games are part of the series that is the main topic of the article.
• Since the image is cover art for a game, it is irreplaceable. No free alternative exists.
• The photograph was taken by a Wikipedian of games that he owns.
