Be sure to cast your votes in the poll below; but first, let’s look at the box designs themselves.

North America

The North American design has what we’d say is the best picture of DK himself on the right, but what is this..? Are those… are those people? Like, real people? Um. I’m not sure about that. The text in the lower left corner is also a bit concerning. However, it could have been worse. Could be..?

Europe

Donkey Kong - EU

This one has potential, sure, but somehow we feel like there’s a lot of wasted space here. Why are the logo and main image so small? Let’s fill the cover a little! However, we are fans of the more stylized logo and the overall color of the composition.

Japan

The Japanese design is pretty wild, but we like it. It really leans on that Hawaiian feel a lot more than its competition, and the mix of reds, greens and oranges makes for a pleasing composition. Should we have put the words ‘Donkey of the Congo’ more than once across the cover…? Probably not. But hey, it looks nice.


Thanks for voting! See you next time for another round of Box Art Brawl.
