Hello everyone; welcome to another edition of ‘Box Art Brawl’!
We hope you all had a fun and productive week since the last battle. Last time we saw a GameCube classic with Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life to celebrate the remake’s recent announcement. Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life.
For North America and Europe, it was another crushing victory, with the duo receiving 62% of the vote. We strongly agree with this result.It goes without saying that the Japanese style design is excellent. Amazing Cute – but we think the more gentle composition of Western design works better to convey the overall tone of the game.
This week we take a look at GameCube exclusives that surprisingly haven’t been re-released yet (although maybe not) Overall Surprising given its sketchy reputation among gamers): Star Fox Adventures.
start as dinosaur planet N46’s Star Fox Adventures is very different from previous Star Fox games. zelda Also Banjo Kazooie franchise. Nonetheless, it has since gained a devoted fan base and is probably still doing pretty well today.
North America and Europe are teaming up again as there are no discernible differences in their respective box art. On the other hand, what about Japan?yeah it’s Wrong!
Let’s crack!
Vote in the poll below. First, let’s check out the box art design itself.
North America/Europe
Like much of the box art from the GameCube and GBA era, Star Fox Adventures’ western design has a more realistic composition when compared to the more abstract Japanese designs. Featuring Star Fox himself alongside Krystal, Prince Tricky, Peppy Hare and Slippy Toad. You could argue the design is perhaps a little misleading, as the latter two of his characters provide remote support for him from afar rather than joining his Fox in the field, but unfortunately While.
It’s a cool design overall, and I especially like the striking nature of the Sharpclaw Pirates surrounding the hero!
Japan
The Japanese design ditched the traditional background and focused on the characters themselves, with the heroes facing up above the game’s logo and Sharpclaw’s armies facing down. Nice design, but perhaps the gray background itself leaves a lot to be desired.The logo does a lot of the heavy lifting here, but is it enough to win..?
Thank you for voting! See you at the next Box Art Brawl.
