Big grin Box cover vs. title screen

I just stumbled upon this example...



vs.



I mean... what the heck happened there? The box cover artist and the title screen one certainly had a completely different idea about how to present the game Any other examples like this one that you can think of?

Good one I like the 70's look of the title version, bet it would have looked cool in a Core style platformer

@lilalurl
Are you implying that Bubble And Squeak was going to be the breakthrough game for the Amiga on the Japanese market? That they planned a massively uber-cute ^_^-style cover exclusively for that purpose that they sadly never released? Intruiging!

aka Thanks for the interesting link
