I have a fascination with Super Nintendo box art. A lot of it is really well-drawn, and it’s a joy to look at. Could I could write an article on it for this website?

Yes! That’s a great idea! I’ve never seen an article about video game boxart art for Super Nintendo or Super Famicom games. It would be interesting to see what you come up with.
Let me know if you need any help.

Hi John, welcome to the site. Top idea. I too really appreciate the box art for these systems although I am very biased (I’ll admit it) in favor of the SFC style.

Thanks for the support, GhostSweeper. I saw that forum topic about box art you made, and I didn’t want to step on your toes.

Not at all, go for it. If I can be of any help let me know. Ah yes you saw that thread, well feel free to use some of the suggestions on there, I will look at adding a few more of my Best & Worst of the Super Nintendo’s box art offerings to that thread at a later date.

It’d be interesting to see a comparison of early and late SNES box art. To me, the SNES represents somewhat of a turning point when it comes to box art. The early box art was often quite bad, but towards the end of the system, we were getting some solid efforts.
Compare Lufia 1 to Lufia 2 for example.
Chrono Trigger is another example of a game with fantastic (if slightly inaccurate) box art.
Now playing: SNES - Phalanx, R-Type III, Genesis - Bio Hazard Battle, PS3 - Dragon's Crown

I think that’s a great idea because I always have had a fascination with box art for some reason. I really have no idea why, but a lot of the Box Arts for games really draw me in. now if only the boxes weren’t so expensive lol.
