Haven't played and people say it's the worst Alex Kidd (for whatever that's worth, imagine Sega never made a new mascot and this doofus went toe to toe with Mario) but I just gotta ask why the Ninja has their feet out? Like that had to have been harder to draw than drawing two black ovals for shoes and calling it a day. Why are there the same impact effects around Alex's fist on one of the feet? Did Sega ask the artist for this? Did they just not say anything about the finished artwork when they got it? What do barefoot ninjas have to do with a so-called 'High-Tech World' anyway? Now that I've written all this I kinda wanna play this for the sole (get it?) purpose of figuring out what the fuck is going on with this box art.
