Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Star Fox Assault (GameCube)

Gotta root for my home team of NA here. It's quite nostalgic. In fact, I have the copy of Nintendo Power that had this game on the front cover. I had it with me when I had to be in the hospital for a week during middle school, and it helped me through that rough time. I also had fond memories of the game itself, playing the multiplayer mode with an old friend of mine whenever we had sleepovers.

In fact, Star Fox: Assault is my favorite game in the series. I felt it had the right blend of 64, as well as the on-foot portions from Adventures. I also loved the variety of weapons, and the different kinds of vehicles that you could pilot. And the Aparoids still give me chills to this day, since they remind me of the Borg from Star Trek (and on a semi-related note, Krystal reminds me of Deanna Troi from Star Trek as well; probably helps explain why she's my favorite character in the series and my favorite video game character of all time).

What I would give for a remake with more levels, such as infiltrating the ruins of Andross' base on Venom to acquire the schematics for the computer virus that they used to defeat the Aparoids, and also making campaign levels based on the multiplayer-only maps of Titania and Zoness; maybe even introduce Fox's homeworld of Papetoon for the first time in the games! Also allow for online gameplay.

StarFox Assault? I mean, I get that some people may find his appearance in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie may deviate from the Mario theming but there's no need to call him names

I have the game USA version so I voted the USA version cover.

Much as I own this and didn’t have to pay the horrific prices seen currently for this, it’s another gem that would be lovely to see on switch online

I like both but I prefer how the Japanese box art highlights the team.

It's a close one, but I prefer the NA design with more of the colors like orange popping out

My uncle at Nintendo tells me we will see this on Switch Online pretty soon.

Went for NA but ideally (for me) it would be the JP characters on an NA type background.

While I like the group shot, I don't like what ever the Japanese cover is using as their background.

I really like both, but I finally had to go for Japan. It drops the busy NA/EU action cover to show off more of the characters and still manages to show the ships. If they'd swap in the bottom section with more action, it would be close to a perfect cover IMO.

My vote goes to Japanese cover though European is also fine.

P.S. Star Fox Assault has a nice varied soundtrack and especially a very catchy Main Menu theme.

Probably the most trouble I've had choosing so far. Not because both are great or terrible, but because I look at both and think "ok, that's kinda cool". If the JPcover had been more vibrantly colored, I think it would have won.

Japan, I love the fact that the whole team is present on the cover art.

North America this time.

This game was great, I regret selling my copy years ago, have had a hankering to play it again.

I think this is my least preferred version of Fox McCloud from an animation stand point. I'm going for Japan, he looks a bit better in that one, and the Arwings look a bit cooler.

Imo it's a very clear advantage for the EU/US one.

I love Assault and I’m going with the Japan box. First time I’ve seen it. I like how the whole gang is there

I'm such a product of my culture, apparently. Because I almost always choose NA. Also, I ALMOST fired up Assault last night. I think I'll get to it this week.

Replaying "Assault" this weekend has been a blissful experience. I will go with the one I know, NA/EU it is.

Hmm it seems like you could have tried to find a more vibrant photo of the Japanese one. This looks technically wrong (desaturated).

This is the StarFox game that i missed playing, at the time I didnt realize it had come out. Years later I watched a youtube video about gamecube games and this was on it.

@XE77-Project Yeah, it's one of my favorite game soundtracks. It's frankly a shame it hasn't come to the Nintendo Music app yet. I want to hear the full, unadulterated track that plays in the cutscene where Peppy seemingly sacrifices himself near the end of the game.

I know some people have tried to take out the dialogue and cutscenes and post said track on YouTube, but it's not perfect. That's why I want Nintendo to upload this soundtrack already, so I can hear the full, unedited track, the way it was meant to be listened to.

Japan, I like the group shot.
