The Western design puts us right into the action, with Mario about to pitch the ball towards Bowser, who’s wielding a rather formidable spiky bat. Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Wario, and Luigi can be seen in the background, and it’s overall a pretty dynamic image. We like it.

Thank you for voting! We’ll see you next week for another edition of Box Art Brawl!
