This is the most pleb thing I've ever heard. That's what the back of the box is for. The cover should be bold and unique. If you need to see the characters and shit from the game, they put fucking screenshots on the back of the box for a reason.

There were black and white doom covers for shareware copies sold at my local drug store. It looked like a shipping label with the doom guy printed on it.

Shareware resellers were everywhere at the time. 7-11, grocery stores, drug stores, etc. Home internet was still rare in 1994 so people actually bought shareware copies.

It's successful branding is what it is. I'm pretty sure putting Link on every Zelda cartridge for NES through the N64 era would have made the games look more generic if anything. Sure their art is slightly unrelated but it still stands out.

Like, I'm not even asking for all the content, just a back view of link over the landscape of hyrule. No swarms of enemies flying at the screen, no giant ganon sillohette looming over the sky with Zelda in his hand, no triforce in the distance with a ray of light shining down on top of it, just an idea of what's in the game instead of just a logo and a picture of a shield that isn't even in the game.

> any other art that doesn't represent a game well.
I nominate picrelated. But before you get buttblasted and accuse me of toxic Shinkirophobia, hear me out.

I used to know only the general info about fighting games. I have seen this cover in magazines a million of times. But I didn't have a single idea of what it was supposed to be. It was pretty mysterious, I couldn't ever deduct what was supposed to go on in it.

Why? Because Capcom decided they absolutely needed to put a virtually unknown character on the front, with some other less-known secondary characters barely visible in the back.

I get it, these characters were newcomers. But do they seriously expect me to deduct what the game is about from that cover? Was it THAT hard to put Ryu, Ken, Akuma, Chun Li, Kyo, Iori or Terry there? Just, you know, to give at least some context for what this game is about.

I have nothing to say about the game. But fuck, it's like Capcom deliberately wanted to keep that game as shut out from outsiders as possible.

i can kinda see your point with the first two zeldas but theyre still really charming and the sword on 2's cover is pretty af

it doesnt really represent the game but it looks ok. i think you guys are just upset that there isn't borderline porn on the back

If you have seen Kinaman's video on Super Mario 1–16, you know that Chinese pirates loved doing sprite hacks of games and selling them as different games.

For some reason, they simply loved Chin 'N' Dale Rescue Rangers. They even made a full ripoff game of them for MD (picrelated). Well, Russia got Disney cartoons on TV for the first time in the '90s, and C'N'D was one of them, but still their love for it defied reason. They also put the main hero of American Tail on every cover.

And so they started shoving Chip and Dale into other games, and it wasn't really bound by logic in any way. The rest is history.

Imagine if it was South Korea who became the electronics giant in the 70s, not Japan. We'd all be playing Samsung and Daewoo consoles, praising designers with names like Hoo Jyeong Huk, etc.

And that Ugly Hangul shit would be our moon runes, with weebs desperately learning it.
