- Writer favours Japan's cover; Europe's design draws criticism

## Summary

Nintendo Life's regular "Box Art Brawl" feature invites readers to vote on regional box art designs, this time turning to Mega Man Zero 2, the GBA action platformer developed by Inti Creates and released in 2003. The game was well received on launch for making modest improvements over its predecessor while retaining a familiar formula, and the feature compares its North American, European and Japanese cover art in a three-way poll.

The article describes North America's cover as an iconic design showing the character Zero glancing back at the viewer, calling it a strong, well-balanced piece. Europe's cover is criticised for its pose, logo and blocky colours, while Japan's design is praised as a moodier, more detailed landscape-oriented version of the North American artwork, which the writer suggests gives it a strong chance of winning reader votes.
