:lol :lol This is too funny. The guy who designed this should be given a raise for his genius.

Personally, things like this dont bother me, but hey, whatever floats your boat.

 

[DMczaf]

Konami also has DLC for DDR on Xbox 360. 10 Songs that have a total file size of around 100kb. Hmm.....

 

[Jive Turkey]

:lol Oh man this thread is hilarious for so many reasons!

And that's the biggest WTF cover ever...And that's saying something after seeing some of the Sega covers back in the day.

 

[marvelharvey]

O?O

Don't worry, I'll never tell what misfortune my SNES boxes succumbed to last month

Eeehh, SNES is not so bad. Those boxes are cardboard, and ruin really easily.

 

[Sho Nuff]

What the blue hell

 

[KTallguy]

This thread is :lol

 

[Ike]

LMAO that's just awesomely hilarious.

 

[The Faceless Master]

man, after the first post, i was ready to come in guns a blazing saying "well, you should have pre-ordered and bought it at launch", but damn, those ****ing photoshops have me laughing so hard i woke up my roommate down the hallway!

"whats so ****ing funny?"

'come check this out'

then he starts laughing crazily too!

 

[MrDaravon]

Wait, this is the US version, not a PAL-land cover or something? What the hell, when did this start happening? I thought there hadn't been any PC-type releases for the DS anywhere yet.

I know bunches of people onilne and at CAG who bought it when it came back up at amazon at the $19.99, oh man :lol

 

[Chris Michael]

The cover was shit before the "cover within a cover" scheme.

Because of bad art.

Bad, shitty art.

 

[G-Fex]

can someone photoshop the castlevania DS cover to look like a cover of a sega master system game. That console had the best cover art.

I'm so fed up with Animevania that I want to kill myself and my mother.

 

[Kevtones]

Imagine your life is so vapid and empty that this upsets you.

:lol post of the year

 

[xaosslug]

Imagine your life is so vapid and empty that this upsets you.

er... if I'm paying for a game, with the cover somewhat in mind, and I'm a collector--you're DAMN RIGHT I'd be upset. Shit, I'm not even that hardcore of a collector and I can, kind of, understand.

 

[jetjevons]

I guess I just missed the part where the cover ever had any bearing at all on my enjoyment of the game proper.

/not to say it's not important to others.

That's it, you're the winner. Gridlines FTW!

 

[Lonesome_Raod]

Instead of worrying over a bit of box art get on with playing the game.

 

[tiong_fi]

 

[acidviper]

Wow

 

[Grayman]

and I thought this thread would be a real complaint like shutting down MGO after a year and telling players to play an inferior version for an expensive handheld or releasing the real version of all their games one year after everyone paid full price for the first ****ing one. Of all the things to complain to konami about get in a ****ing line between every other person in the goddamn world.

guy the joke only works once

sorry but his got the right click and save

 

[shuri]

The original was FoxBox type animu art, there was no big loss here

 

[Vitet]

Ok I'm starting to get dizzy

I just spent awhile on this:

My hat's off to you, Shinobi.

Wow that is awesome to stare at.

 

[Naked Snake]

Oh shit, worst boxart ever confirmed.

 

[arcader]

its just the greatest hits version - if you were to slow to pick it up the first time it was released this is your punshiment and also shows the world you were late to the party.

console gamers also prefer the origonal boxart to the yello, red and green additions of greatest hits and players choice releases.

 

[dark_chris]

Imagine your life is so vapid and empty that this upsets you.

omg. It is way too hard to hold in my laughs in class. I am so red after reading this...
LMAO :lol :lol :lol

 

[BocoDragon]

what the.......? :lol :lol

Konami you suck. Glad I own that game already!

Exactly, you should have got this game when it first came out.

You got what you deserve

 

[Roi]

Just go to a store and steal the cover you want.

 

[Tornado Condor]

:lol :lol :lol

What does that little white box at the end of Best say?

 

[Alpha_eX]

What does that little white box at the end of Best say?

"PWNED"

 

[Reilly]

What does that little white box at the end of Best say?

PLAY IT!

 

[farnham]

wow.. that box art.. looks... :lol :lol :lol

no seriously i thought the DoS boxart looked bad enough with the crappy artstyle..

good game though.. enjoy it

 

[Mau ®]

I havent played any of the DS and GBA CV games but the DS CV box arts are just bad. Theres good anime and then bad anime, and that is bad anime.The GBA games art is really good though...

 

[STG!]

I have another one that I'm working on but it needs some fine tuning.

 

[haircut]

Uh, what's with all the hate for somebody who didn't buy a game on launch. People are acting like he deserves to be saddled with that box art, that this is his just punishment, and I don't understand this point of view?

I guess I should avoid ever buying this game though. That way nobody can look down on me for being late to the party.

 

[Femmeworth]

I found Castlevania: DS (the original print) at the airport the other day and promptly bought it. Due to having enough f***ing hand luggage already and the fact that I would probably never sell the game, I took the cartridge and instructions out, put them in my bag and threw the box in the garbage.

<a stunned silence falls over the 100s of collectors in this thread>

O_O Honestly, that makes me cringe.

 

[Femmeworth]

:lol You win sir.

 

[NinSoX]

Damn, what were they thinking? Might as well have this

 

[Baryn]

Sonofabitch.

That would actually be a great game cover.

 

[Sagitario]

Seems like a godsend in comparison.

Exactly what I was thinking...

 

[Chris Remo]

Anyone care to repost the original one?

[Fuzzy]

Anyone care to repost the original one?

I didn't see it but I assume it's like this but without the outside one.
