    Christ, I can’t believe I’m going to have to begin a comment with these words so early in my life…

    …but back in my day, the vast majority of the back of a game case was reserved to screenshots, and to describe the features and plot of a game. Not the intricacies of the T&Cs you need to agree to prior to playing!

      I’m young and even this has me gagging. Our Switch games definitely don’t look like that, although I do feel box art and blurbs on the back used to entice me more, but maybe that’s just because I’m not a kid anymore. But yeah this is fucking horrendous to look at 🤢

      Exactly. You’d have a blurb, a barcode, and some screenshots from a better looking platform than the one you had.
