    You would have to enlarge the original image by almost 400%. The quality will be poor at that scale of duplication.

    A poster-sized collage made out of many flyers might be the way to go.

    Quoted from PinballFever:

    This is the one I was thinking of. http://ipdb.org/showpic.pl?id=1068&picno=4224&zoom=1
    Wouldn't the quality be better if I changed it to vector image then enlarged it?

    If you can get a high-resolution scan of the original flyer, some of the art (the text, bull, and other shapes) could be vectorized reasonably well and—with enough manicuring—produce quality results. The photo of the game, on the other hand, will not scan and scale well. Its halftone patterns will produce moire effects, which will have to be blurred out, reducing detail and resulting in a fuzzy image. Since you own the game, you could try to reproduce the studio photography and transplant it onto your poster design.
