You made a claim that NES cover art was better than contemporary cover art because it lacked logos and "boarders" to get in the way of the artwork itself (which was the basis for why you preferred it). Oddly, you posted a picture of games that had a lot of logos and some borders on them to prove your point. I am simply trying to refute that claim by showing you that there are plenty of NES covers that are cluttered and logo-centric (often blocking the art or forcing it into a small area) and that there are plenty of contemporary games with less clutter/logos.

I am not trying to suggest that you shouldn't like NES cover art or that there aren't examples where logofication is minimal, but I am suggesting that you shouldn't rely on a false blanket claim about box art as justification for a preference.


Dsh, the crusader of misinformation everywhere. :roll: Give me a break, everyone else on this thread knew exactly what I meant, and it was even clarified to you later in the thread that it was up to the publisher to put the borders or not. And you're still arguing this point that I'm not.

You are always going around here pissing all over everyone else's posts. This is nothing new. I picture you as a jaded, bitter old man who loves nothing more than to gripe and grumble at everyone else's good time.

And knowing this, you still fell for it.

You guys take things too seriously sometimes. Forums need a little disagreement to fuel discussions; a retrogaming circlejerk would be boring.


It's all my fault for posting something about liking NES boxes, and not letting Dsh get away with being a pompous ass again. I guess should laugh it off and be like "Oh it's just Dsh" like everyone else; for like the umpteenth time.

The only circle jerk going on here are the regulars here that continue to allow Dsh to act the way he does on a regular basis. I mean damn, you have to be blind to not see the bad attitude he exudes around here all the time.

The fact that we like to masturbate as a group has nothing to do with how we treat our members.

These are forums, and you should expect discussion on anything that you post. Discussion includes disagreement, and you should not expect every other member to agree completely with anything you post here. The correct response to disagreement is: (1) a well-articulated response; (2) concession; or (3) no response at all. Whining or responding with ad hominem attacks, however, does nothing to convince others of your position. Moreover, those responses do not reflect on the character of any other member and certainly do not prevent someone from "get[ting] away with being a pompous ass."
