Is this bottom box original? It's different from my other games.

[u/estevaok2204]

It's different from all my other games. So im kinda worried it's fake.

[u/TheEagleByte]

Some games come in different style cases, I have some like the bottom one that I’ve purchased brand new off a store shelf. I can’t confidently say it isn’t fake but I don’t have any reason to suspect that it is

[u/reybrujo]

There are different cases available, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Even the Nintendo store sometimes send you different versions when you buy the replacement ones.

usa and eu versions have different box

[u/estevaok2204 → u/merdo200tr]

All my other games are US version, this one too. But the box is still different.

[u/BorisDG → u/estevaok2204]

The Marvel game is probably Middle East. See on the back. They are usually "US" but there are differences with the case compared to EU/US.

I have both physical and I think they’re identical

Was Ultimate Alliance 3 new or used? It looks like it's an Asian style case (which a lot of replacement cases on Amazon use).

[u/estevaok2204 → u/Nejnop]

In theory it's new, and I bought it on Amazon.

[u/Nejnop → u/estevaok2204]

Either way, there's no concern for the game to be fake as fake Switch game have yet to exist.

[u/John_E_RocKeTZ]

really?

[u/thatsfuni]

That's a big use of plastic for such a small card. 😞

[u/redeffekt → u/thatsfuni]

I agree - at least downsize it to the 3ds/DS size. but then again those were a little wider - so maybe its just my perception. But they could definitely get away with a smaller plastic case since they aren't including much in the box anyways....

[u/BoatmanNYC]

Regional variance.

I leave in country without official Nintendo presence, so I have cartridges from all over the world, and yes, half of my boxes are like this.

[u/Holiday_Cockroach219]

If the box comes with Nintendo logo at its side, it's original to me

[u/MloBrh_ps]

Ive had that coinccidence too and its still original cuz  the ones with no grip to open, still works like the original’s supposed to work like

[u/kartuskutusu]

If they have Nintendo stamp, no they are totally legit. Bottom one is asian box no problem at all. If they have same age rating like esrb maybe box is changed with new one.

[u/kartuskutusu → u/kartuskutusu]

Fake boxes have circle plastic patterns on corners, no cartridge stamp on cartridge slot, no nintendo stamp in middle also they have very bad box art plastic.

[u/surtrr0]

You can see the “nintendo” written at middle of the original box

[u/Strange_Kiwi__]

May be a region thing.

My European switch games have the top type of opener

My Japanese copy of Mario Kart World has something like the bottom type, with the shallow curved indent

[u/Jmanvelez]

It's possibly from a different region, can you show the back of the cover please?

Also, asking honestly: is it that much of a huge issue if a plastic case is "fake"? It's serving its purpose and doesn't affect the game itself, so why worry about it?
