That's also on the original JP.
Also I don't know for sure but that Marina 3D model looks JP-made. Anyone knows if there's any credits for the cover box art? I know the JP one is different and has just 2D illustration, but the CGI Marina looks too good and in-model to be western

To this day I still think the old n64 boxes added to the appeal of buying the game in a way most game boxes didnt. it’s a small detail but the size, graphics on all sides, and box arts made the games seem like a bigger “event” and added to the anticipation of playing it.

Not just the boxart, but the whole games are exemplars of this style.

The controls are at times frustrating, but the games are still very comfy.

As much as I like that game, the box has probably one of the worst designs and layouts I've ever seen.

Its decent if you enjoy awkward tongue platforming and eating enemies.
