Re: Worst Box Art
My assumption has always been that the picture was originally supposed to be of a guy with a headlock on the other guys. Somewhere along the line, I have to assume someone saw that and 1) didn't know what pro wrestling was or 2) why the heck Sega was putting two naked guys hugging on a box so someone, somewhere edited to look like a dude holding his own head. Because that's what's in video games? And then no one else ever thought to say, wha? because no one gave a shit about the SMS in the US? Who knows, I'm just speculating. Someone needs to track down whomever at Sega handled these things are get the real truth.WrathOskvro wrote:That is pretty crap indeed. I don't think I have to say that the Mega Man 1 box art is horrendous. So first up..
I know all SMS box arts are pretty boring, but wtf is this?
Most wrestling fans are familiar with John Cena's NES Pro Wrestling inspired t-shirt, right? Cena would be my instant favorite wrestler ever if they made a Master System Pro Wrestling shirt, white grid, terrible headless clip art guy HUSTLE LOYALTY RESPECT. Would make a million dollars, easy.

The God of War collection. Seems like they were just lazy. I bet every PS3 HD collection will look like this too...


Re: Worst Box Art
Can I include some of the fantastic boxart produced by the good people at thecoverproject.net?
