Pelea de arte de caja: Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D
Happy Sunday, todo el mundo; bienvenidos a otra edición de ‘Box Art Brawl’!
We’ve got another great one for you this week, but first let’s take a look at the previous results. Ultima vez, we featured the GameCube classic from Rare Ltd, Aventuras de Star Fox. Criminally underrated at the time of its release, the action-adventure title has nevertheless gained significant respect from Nintendo fans in the years since.
For Box Art Brawl, it was another duel in which North America and Europe teamed up to take on Japan. It wasn’t a close one either; the western design clearly struck a chord with readers, taking in a hefty 79% del voto.
Esta semana, we’re moving forward in time to look at another underrated title on the Nintendo 3DS: Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D. Taking the Mercenaries mini-games from Resident Evil 4 y Resident Evil 5, The Mercenaries 3D was a solid action title, but failed to impress fans who were hoping for a adecuada Resident Evil game on the 3DS. That wouldn’t follow until a year later, when Resident Evil: Revelaciones lanzado en 2012.
This time, the western designs are similar, but different enough for us to have a proper three-way battle, so without further ado, empecemos!
Asegúrese de emitir sus votos en la siguiente encuesta; pero primero, echemos un vistazo a los propios diseños de box art.
América del norte
The North American design for The Mercenaries 3D features RE veteran Chris Redfield coming face-to-face against Resident Evil 5’s take on the chainsaw-wielding Dr. el Salvador: the Executioner. It’s a striking image, para estar seguro, with the background adding more impact with explosive textures and effects.
Europa
Europe’s design, por otra parte, features the same image, but against a pure white background. It actually works quite well as a more abstract take on North America’s design, arguably making Chris Redfield and the Executioner pop out even more.
Japan
Japan’s design is a little bit different, choosing instead to focus on some of the characters you’ll be playing as in The Mercenaries 3D. You’ve got Chris Redfield, his sister Claire, Gato “Witness the Power” Krauser, and HUNK. Honestamente, why Capcom chose to omit Albert Wesker here is a bit of a baffling choice, but we’ll let it slide. Overall though, it’s a pretty cool image!
