If you look on the side of a GameCube games packaging, you know the place where it says the name along the side, there is a Triangle on the bottom corner of the box.

Now I have 16 GameCube games and only two of them have red triangles. The rest have Green.

Why is this?

The two games which are red are Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee and Capcom VS SNK 2 EO. Both Fighting games really, but then again so is Super Smash Bros Melee and that's red.

Sorry for posting this but my games face me lined up with that side facing me as I sit here. Also Tony Hawks 4 is the devil, the Nintendo GameCube part on the rim is much more further up then on the other games.

Satan indeed.

Didn't get it from no different country. Special Reserve are English right?

My Mario Sunshine has a Purple box and the reason for this is because I let my mate go and buy me it whilst he was at Asda. Now it's not Asda's fault, nope, instead I've noticed that you cna buy Mario SUnshine in different colour boxes for some reason. Well I wanted it Black but meh.

How can my Capcom VS SNK 2 EO be red/pinky purple and yours green though? Hmmmmm

It's because you got it from another country. My brother got Pikmin from France and that had a red triangle.

I have a green triangle on my Legend of Zelda booklet for the NES, so they've been around for ages.


I thought it was something to do with them being European or something. And yes, the side format is different for US and UK boxes, it's the case with both AC and SMB 2.

:D
