Summary
Screenshot of Fatal Labyrinth, taken by me (Nifboy) using Gens (Emulator), presumably copyrighted to Sega.
Fair use because:
- Sega has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information.
- It is a low resolution screenshot of a video game.
- It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the video game in any way.
- The image is being used solely for informative purposes, as it serves to illustrate the form in which the game takes place.
