can we talk about disks in this thread



because mario super sluggers has the Best Disk

Some good ones.







Shame on Capcom for not doing something similar to the Duke 3D one there, but with the Biohazard symbol and orange.

This is my favorite box art, by Steve Purcell. I still have the box for mine though it's somewhat dilapidated(mine is IBM PC). I've read somewhere he said he made it in oils (maybe over acrylic) over a month or so.

four in japanese is shi, which is also the world used for death or at least close enough that its too spooky to handle

also they dont like the four finger thing cuz the yakuza like to to chop off their own pinkies so having four fingers = being a gangster

On the upside, I really like Xenoblade's box art. Just the Monado in an open field, with the Mechonis looming in the background. Gets across several things: that the Monado is kinda important to the overall game (seriously, taking a shot every time it's mentioned would kill you of alcohol poisoning if it wasn't spread out over the 100 hour playtime), that you will get to explore wide-open areas, and that there's a gigantic robot constantly staring you down no matter where you go.

Plus it's just generally aesthetically pleasing. So nice and colorful.



On the downside, the European box art for Sonic 3D Blast is horrendous garbage. Every version of the game had this ugly render slapped on top of it. The British Sonic the Comic by Fleetway tucked it on the corner of every issue released from then on, and at least one of their artists made drat sure Sonic's head was shaped like this when viewed from the front. I don't get why Sega was so proud of this render; Sonic doesn't even look like this when looked at from this angle in the game it's the box art for. Abhorrent.

Can we get a "56K No" warning in the title? It's not for me, but for others.
