Random Gamecube Question

Post by Tvols1480 »

On the back of the game cases for GCN games, there is a section indicating how many possible players the games supports. In said section, there is also a picture of at least 1 controller depending on how many possible players there are. On all of my Gamecube games (~15), every button on the controller is represented but the start button. The confusion arises when I look at my copy of Luigi's Mansion. The controller picture on this game case has every button represented except for start AND the left joystick. Was this the case on all early Gamecube titles?

I don't see that on any of my games, nor my copy of Luigi's Mansion, but then again mine is also the Player's Choice version.

What is your question? Do all of the launch titles have a missing left joystick on the icon? The answer is no. It appears to be a unique Luigi's Mansion error.

FWIW, PN03 is missing the C stick. It is probably a just a mistake where the layer for that little piece of the artwork was accidentally on a layer underneath the background art.

That is strange.
