Box Art Brawl Showdown: Breath of Fire II – Cast Your Vote Now!
In today’s edition of Box Art Brawl, we’re taking a trip down memory lane to the SNES era with the classic game Breath of Fire II. Originally released by Capcom in 1994, this game has since made its way onto various platforms, including the GBA, Virtual Console on Wii, Wii U, 3DS, and Nintendo Switch Online.
The Battle Begins: North America/Europe vs. Japan
This week, we have a showdown between the box art designs from North America/Europe and Japan. The Western design showcases a vibrant use of color and shadow, highlighting the cast of characters in a cool and stylish way. However, some may argue that it loses a bit of the original Japanese design’s personality in the process.
On the other hand, the Japanese variant features cooler tones with a mix of deep reds, yellows, and greens, creating a visually appealing composition. While it may seem crowded with characters, it still manages to capture the essence of the game effectively.
