This will come as Nintendo Select Packaging from Adler Deals
My review is for Adler Deals and the misleading product image.I’m sure this game is fantastic, but for 40 dollars (20 dollars over the $19.99 Nintendo Select Retail Price) I expect to receive the correct packaging.Now I will have to go though a process to return this.Once again, I played the GameCube version of this game, and it was 5/5.... and amazon has been helpful..... Adler Deals has a misleading photo and is capitalizing on knowing that gamers will pay more for original packaging.
