I have a thing where I hate the "greatest hits" edition of games. In reality there shouldn't be any difference, but not seeing that black stripe on a Playstation game, or the horrible cover on a Japanese game... it just bugs me. I've been wanting to buy Mario Kart 8 for a while now, both for having a Mario Kart game (the last one I bought was for the GameCube) and for its famous Luigi death glare meme, but I've only been able to find this greatest hits version with a red case that doesn't match the usual Wii U blue cases. I've literally been looking everywhere: GameStop, amazon, J&L, Target, Book Off... Then I find out it actually was released with a red box. For a moment I got angry for lack of uniformity but then I'm like, "Well, I guess it's like those NES gold cartridges back in the day." I should try to see the better side of things. For example, at least it's not the Arkham City Game of the Year Edition cover.
