Can the box art designers not SEE how that totally destroys the whole image they had going with it? Yes, advertise the demo, but stick that on the back of the box or something. Anyone who would be interested in it for the Metroid DEMO is a Nintendo fanboy already.
They NEARLY had totally great box art, then they threw up on it. <img src="http://www.penny-arcade.com/docs/ds_box.gif">

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
