Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Donkey Kong Country |
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | This image serves to illustrate many of the core elements of Donkey Kong Country: the 2D, side-scrolling perspective, the platforming gameplay, and the pre-rendered visuals. |
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
The software or website from which the screenshot is taken is copyrighted and not released under a free license, so creation of a free image is not possible. |
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1) |
The gameplay cannot be adequately described via text alone; elements such as the pre-rendered graphics and partner mechanic are difficult to convey without a concrete visual aid for readers. In addition, the gameplay and visuals, which are subject to significant critical commentary later in the article, are clearly illustrated by the image. |
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | No need for this file elsewhere. |
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
The use of a low resolution screenshot from software or a website will not impact the commercial viability of the software or site. |
