If you’re a physical collector, we also hope you’ll spare a thought for the poor souls who have to put up with <em>this</em>.</p> <p>In some countries – namely those that have more than one official language – the case for the game displays more than one logo. In Switzerland, where German, French and Italian are all official languages, this results in <em>three</em> logos being plastered all over the lovely artwork.</p> <p>On the one hand, it’s great that all languages are catered for. On the other, <em>eww.</em></p> <aside class="object object-tweet"> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p><span lang="en" dir="ltr">Heya, Swiss guy here, and yeah, we actually got this box, since our official languages are french, italian and german.</p> <p>However, this is literally the first time I see Nintendo doing this. Usually I get the german box art, since I live in the german speaking part of switzerland. <a href="https://t.co/FUJf7zLh3P">pic.twitter.com/FUJf7zLh3P</a></p> <p></span>— Lugo (@Lug_Oli) <a href="https://twitter.com/Lug_Oli/status/1329747228571865091?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 20, 2020</a></p></blockquote> </aside> <p>As it happens, there’s actually been some thought put into that seemingly random logo placement. As <a class="external" href="https://twitter.com/kupocake/status/1329749867485343744?s=20">spotted by our very own Stephanie Woor</a>, each logo is in roughly the correct position from a geographical point of view, with the German text being to the north-east of the French, and Italian being south of the two.</p> <p>Have you ended up with a copy like this?
