Box Art Brawl – Kirby Super Star

North America

Kirby Super Star - NA

It’s crisp. It’s clear. It tells you exactly what you need to know. It’s fair to say that the North American box design for Kirby Super Star isn’t the most eye-catching of the bunch. The gold logo and surrounding stars sit on a plain black background, with the attention being firmly on the central pink puffball and the “8 Games in One!” boast. It tells you all that you need to know, but it would be nice to see a little more colour, don’t you think?

Europe

Woah! Now that’s some more colour. Apart from the obvious title change, Europe’s edition of Super Star is very similar to the North American variant. That is, excusing the bright pink background which makes the whole thing that bit more eye-catching.

Japan

Now this is taking things in a different direction. Rather than dazzle customers with stars or boasts of how many games are included in the collection, the Japanese design knows what we want: Kirby. Looking as if it’s burnt into a wooden base, this cover is all about the titular hero. There’s no mucking around here. Kirb looks directly into your soul as if to say “go on, don’t buy this. I dare you.”
