Yes, I know what you're about to say "B-B-But Neon "Titty Meister" Octopus, that's supposed to be a homage to the original Japanese Boxart!" Yeah and the original Japanese Boxart sucked too >_> America did a way better job jazzing up the boxart over here. I always thought it looked way cooler as a kid.

I prefer the JP boxart, but most of the time we in EU got the JP covers or at something similar/artsy. Not for this game though, we didnt get this game at all. Why? Because they were afraid of us. Afraid of us not getting the weird Americans localization. It was RUDE.

The original us box art is worse. This and the JP one are a bit bland. The US one is super ugly.

The truth some weeby deebies do not want to hear is that while there is plenty of hilarious examples of north american or europe box arts failing at life compared to the japanese original, there is also plenty of examples of the japanese original box art being awful compared to what north america or europe gets.

I agree that in this case the japanese super mario rpg box art is ass, lol.

They both suck but the US one is super busy and kitsch. Best thing would just be some simple stars or something.

The US Ico cover could legit be AI generated if released today.

How is it busy? It's just the crew standing in front of a cool background >_> Better than the crew standing in front of a literal blank void lol

Cool is an American thing, Europeans think everything that isnt one single color is terrible. We evolved that way, kinda like vampires fearing the shape of crosses.

The cover should have just been an extreme closeup on Genos face.

And in the game it self, its all about Geno.

When Geno isnt on screen, all the others characters just say "Where's Geno?"
