I miss the time when video game covers They were trying to be as creative as possible to get our attention. If a few days ago we told you about one of the strangest covers in the history of the medium, today I wanted to dedicate this Sunday morning to paying homage to my favorite of all time.
In a matter of taste there is nothing written, you know how this goes, but since I found the cover of the Japanese version of the Smash Court of Namcoa game best known in these parts for its second edition, the one sponsored by Anna Kournikova (hilarious, by the way).
Despite the fact that here we receive a much more bland version with a tennis ball for a cover, in Japan they threw fantasy with one of those compositions that arouses astonishment and peace in equal parts. A beautiful cover that I wouldn’t mind having in framed poster format next to my work table.
My research on the author of the same or other works has never been very successful, and as the years go by it seems even more difficult that I end up finding more information about this beautiful rarity.
With the packaging of the game, not only did they come up with an incredibly beautiful cover, the album and the image it left behind was also pure fantasy, simulating to open a can of tennis balls in a masterful way that you can admire in the tweet that you will find below. continuation.
Also the disc and inside of the case are made to look like you’re opening a new can of tennis balls. pic.twitter.com/VLuUNr3R0A
