This is what Kirby's Avalanche's box looks like-



or sometimes this-




But most definitely NOT this travesty-




What the hell is that black K-A logo? I don't recall a game ever using that. Photoshop fail.

Then feel free to fix it.

Simple copy paste fix.

Go to Google and and find correct logo and paste it on in Paint.

Simple isn't it.

some harsh words for an image to print out to cover a video game.

Only somebody who can do it perfectly should do it. I am terrible at anything drawing-related. My motor skills are very poor. I'd rather leave it for someone who is good at these kinds of things.

And that's a much more polite response to the one I was going to write.

Don't worry guys, I fixed it:
Also, Kirby's AV came out in 95, the E rated one would have been  '98+ prints I would think, since K-A was 94-98.  So there should have been some black K-A prints I would think, they would be a more rare label variation.

LOL, I was actually expecting that joke.

Anyway, is there actually a single copy out there with a black K-A? It looks too fake with that ESRB logo instead of the "dust particle" one.

Not in response to someone whining to have a new cover made, but more for myself.

Been wanting to do this one for a while, but I knew it'd be a task to undertake. Bought a semi-cheap boxed copy on eBay, scanned it, cleaned it, and reset EVERYTHING that wasn't a raster image(The main front image and game logos) using Illustrator. (Hi-res PDF available if you ask)

Notes:

This box has a new Super Nintendo logo that I personally vectored and is extremely close to retail accurate.
The gray SNES logos have been vectored and are retail-accurate.
This has the correct "old" ESRB logo (also redrawn in Illustrator).
The top edge of the box is not cut off and is fully visible.
The back of the box reflects retail - no ESRB box and various type elements are different - note correct game code in upper left.



Hopefully this is acceptable to replace the existing cover on the site.
