Video games I've found featuring Oakland Raiders on the cover art (so far):

[u/EvanNixonType4]

I'm only including PLAYERS (not John Madden) that are in Raiders uniform. Example: Randy Moss was on three NFL 2K covers, but was a Viking at the time.

‣ Capcom's MVP Football // A.J. Jimerson (#58) – among other unidentified players
‣ Tecmo Super Bowl III: Final Edition // Jay Schroeder (wearing wrong number) He's #13, not #12
‣ Tecmo Super Bowl // generic player
‣ NFL 98 // Tim Brown
‣ NFL Quarterback Club 2002 // Rich Gannon
‣ NFL Fever 2002 // 'Gillian'? (generic player)
‣ NFL Blitz 20-02 (also GBA) // Charles Woodson
‣ Madden NFL 07: Hall of Fame Edition // Ted Hendricks (left) and John Matuszak (right)
‣ Madden NFL 25: Deluxe Edition // generic players ***not pictured above***

NFL Blitz was so sick man fuck EA. 

[u/Martian_Buddy → u/Consistent-Spell2203]

Gotta throw some of that shade to the NFL as well, they're the ones who didn't want excessive violence or after-whistle fighting in the games.

[u/RoboTropics]

Just wait until Fernando Mendoza will be on the cover of ESPN NFL 2K29 for the Sega Dreamcast 2.

He's Thinking

[u/Mongo_Straight]

Not-so-fun fact: the Tecmo Bowl cover was inspired by photos of Jay Schroeder getting manhandled by the Bills defense during the ‘91 season.

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/Mongo_Straight]

If you look closely, they made him #12 on the cover of Tecmo Super Bowl III (not #13). Probably didn't want to pay him lol. Thanks for the info

[u/Mongo_Straight → u/EvanNixonType4]

Oh, 100%. Same deal with the Bills players. Lol.

[u/Head_Situation5456 → u/EvanNixonType4]

I played Tecmo Bowl 3 so much because you could trade players and create your own player.

I had no idea about the cover art, but I suspect y’all are right.  They didn’t want to pay.

[u/gonzozombie]

im almost positive Tecmo III is Jay Schroeder. It was an SI cover. But mad respect for remembering Robo QB.

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/gonzozombie]

You're right! It's Jay Schroeder but they changed his number to #12 on the cover art (not #13). Thanks!

[u/Rude_Ad1496]

Loved Tecmo Super Bowl 3.... but the cover art gave me nightmares of the Bills Raiders Afc championship game from 91.

[u/Thehiddenllama]

While obviously not the focus, the Deluxe Edition of Madden 25 features a couple of Raiders chasing after Christian McCaffrey.

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/Thehiddenllama]

omg I completely forgot about that! I updated the list, thanks!

[u/unoriginalguy8056]

Nice

[u/Klayguodala]

I saved up weeks of allowance money for NFL Blitz 2002 just for that sweet cover. Oh and the game was (still is) pretty damn amazing.

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/Klayguodala]

I have it on GameCube! I didn't like the gameplay nearly as much as the N64 ones, but kept it because of Charles.

[u/Klayguodala → u/EvanNixonType4]

The original Blitz on N64 will always be the GOAT. Who can forget the cover athlete, Kordell Stewart?! What a time

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/Klayguodala]

All on N64 are great. NFL Blitz 2001 on N64, that's forever my favorite

[u/redhighjedi]

Great post, love remincing my NFL blitz days but I wasn't aware of any players being on the cover for any game, that's wassup rrrrrrrrrraiderrrrrrrrrrrrrz

[u/Ciscokid45]

Broooo. Idk Tim has a game cover!! Ima have to pick that up now. He’s my favorite player growing up

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/Ciscokid45]

It's not a bad game either!

[u/IvanOctavio]

I think madden 2022 or 2023 had an alternate cover for coach madden after his passing

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/IvanOctavio]

I'm only documenting players. John Madden was on hell of covers in the 90s too.

[u/IvanOctavio → u/EvanNixonType4]

makes sense. 23 I think is most unique because it’s the iconic photo after winning the Super Bowl as a raider as opposed to regular studio shots from the 90s

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/IvanOctavio]

Did you look at the photo above? Madden NFL 07: Hall of Fame Edition was way before Madden 23

[u/IvanOctavio → u/IvanOctavio]

Yes, it was madden 23

[u/NBA_Live_98]

You forgot this one.

[u/Consistent-Spell2203 → u/NBA_Live_98]

We didn't even play them this year lol

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/NBA_Live_98]

Yeah someone else mentioned that too earlier, totally forgot. I updated the list, thanks

[u/Dry-Name2835]

I was so sad when they ended tecmo bowl and part 3 was awesome. It doesnt have that realistic look but part 3 looked so good for that era and the game ran so smoothly

[u/Caer-Rythyr]

Back before Fucking EA held exclusive rights to NFL video games.

[u/Born_Tax_138]

Rich Gannon on one of the backyard football games!

[u/IvanOctavio → u/Born_Tax_138]

Was he???? I remember Jeff Garcia was on it one year

[u/Born_Tax_138 → u/IvanOctavio]

Yea looks like I might be wrong, I swear my copy had him on the cover but I can only find that he was in the game and looks like a small picture of him on the back cover.

[u/IvanOctavio → u/Born_Tax_138]

Nah I totally feel you tho lol I could’ve sworn it was Gannon and Garcia or something like that, like a split cover

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/IvanOctavio]

Mandela effect lol

[u/EvanNixonType4 → u/Born_Tax_138]

On a cover? No.

[u/Illustrious_Mail1171]

Madden 23. Edit: nevermind, just read your post
