Another 3DS boxart mistake
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Update: Our Facebook follower Cameron Thomas tells us that he received his copy and it contains the same error. The photo seems to be the real deal!
Apparently Capcom isn’t the only company experiencing boxart woes.
It appears that a fan got his hands on a European copy of One Piece: Unlimited Cruise and while I’m assuming the game is fine, the spine of the boxart spells “Unlimited” as “Unlimlited”.
Consider this a rumor for now until we receive a confirmation about this. One Piece: Unlimited Cruise will offically be out in Europe this Friday.
Thanks to Tim for the tip!

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– In a move that’s got tails wagging from Hollywood to Manhattan, Nintendo of America is teaming up with Uggie, the talented Jack Russell terrier known to moviegoers as the canine co-star of The Artist. Starting today, Uggie will sink his teeth into a memorable new role as Nintendo’s first-ever “spokesdog,” spreading the word about the interactive fun of nintendogs™ + cats for the Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system.
To help celebrate February as Responsible Pet Owners Month, Uggie will lend a paw by showing how the game includes valuable tips on how people can maintain happy, healthy relationships with their furry friends in real life. Though he previously announced plans to retire after this year’s awards season, the chance to team up with Nintendo was too doggone good for Uggie to resist.
