I own two very cool wallscrolls, one is Final Fantasy X, the other is Zelda: Majora's Mask. Majora is hanging up behind me, FFX is on the wall above my bed. :)
Not exactly HD quality pictures, but good enough I suppose. Those are my two.
" Its just as it sounds, its literally a rolled out scroll for hanging on walls, generally made of fabric instead of just poster paper. I have a few. Some I got last time I was in China of traditional water color sceneries, and also some anime ones. No video game ones though. "
Yeah I think anime ones are probably the most popular, I know a few friends who aren't even anime nerds who have some (One has Ninja Scroll, another has Trigun). But they make some extremely kick ass videogame ones as well. I'd like to get more.
" Yeah i have one of FF7 Before Crisis and one of the anime hellsing. "
Do you really want to admit you own something anime-related?
EDIT: Oh God those things in the first post are ugly. If you're going to get an ugly expensive archaic culturally inappropriate display, then at least get one of a game that doesn't suck.
i have a Philadelphia Flyers wallscroll. annnnnd thats it. so since this thread is kinda goin nowhere ill post it anyways :) lets pretend its an NHL 11 wallscroll

Sure why not or are we still in the hating on anime because its the cool thing to do phase still.
Got 2 FF7 Advent children wall scrolls... One's Cloud the other is Sephiroth. Got 1 FF8 wall scroll, the rinoa/squall cuddling with the feathers around. and 1 SF4 wall scroll.
no, i don't have any of those. i use to have a calender of one. it said things like fortune things like what animal you are by months and dates. i through it out because it was getting old yeah.
I have a nice Utawareru Mono tapestry. Don't know if that counts as a "wall scroll". It's based on the anime, of course, but that in turn was based on a game originally, so...
" Where would one procure a video game wallscroll? I would get one, but I have never heard of or seen one. "
I am shocked by this. Honestly and truly. Not that I thought they were necessarily in abundance, but all you gotta do is walk around a mall and you'll find them at various places. At least I've never sought them out and always just came across the two that I own. I've seen them before at Atomic Comics, in movie stores, in any anime-related or comics shop, I got my Majora's Mask one at an entertainment exchange store called Bookmans, whereas I got my Final Fantasy X one in a movie hobby-style shop where they had movie posters and art drawings of famous movie-stars and that type of crap. I think you're best bet would be any sort of hobby style shop where you'd find collectables. I bet somewhere on the Internet you could find them. Can't give you anything specific though since I've never thought to look.

Ever heard of videogame magazines? One hundred was an exaggeration of course, but I got lots. @Weltal said:
" I had one for Bayonetta that K-Mart gave me for some reason. I threw it in the garbage. "
Well that was dumb. Should've sold or traded it. Apparently wallscrolls are pretty rare judging by responses here. My friend Lillian would probably kill to have it, she loves Bayonetta and has several wallscrolls.

NICE! I'd love to get more Final Fantasy ones. That FFVIII one sounds awesome.

dude that's freakin' awesome! And holy crap your camera quality is worse than mine! :P
@astrotriforce: The mall near where I live doesn't have any of those kind of stores. Yeah I know. It's pretty depressing. In fact, the only place you can buy games or movies is a Gamestop, Target, or Borders. I would totally buy one if there was anywhere nearby I could browse for them.

Ah man that sucks dude. :( Our local mall at one point had FOUR videogame stores. 2 GameStops, 1 Babbagges and a Sam's Club, all in the same building. ;) I live in Phoenix, AZ. lol. I actually didn't mean for the tone of my reply to you to sound so harsh, I was mostly just annoyed at everyone else's stupid comments and the fact that no one had apparently heard of wallscrolls before. lol. I honestly didn't think that would happen. I assumed everyone knew what one was.

Nothing wrong with anime, its the the people who get super obsessive and up "in your grill" about it that are uncool. Hellsing is a good anime though, although the Manga is much better (Nazi Zombies). The OVA's are good too, since they follow the manga. In any case, I would be far more emabrrassed about having Final Fantasy paraphernalia. At least post FF6 stuff, the ones before that were good though.
I put "up in your grill" in quotes to emphasize the fact that I was using modern terminology. This is because I am a "cool dude."
