Nintendo Life has launched a special edition of its Box Art Brawl feature to celebrate the release of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Switch 2. Following a previous contest centered on Revenge of the Gator where Japan secured 58 percent of the vote against 42 percent for North America and Europe, the site is now throwing every box art version of Ocarina of Time into an ultimate showdown.

The feature focuses on the N64 original, the 2011 3DS remake, and the new Switch 2 release. Certain historical variations have been excluded from the showdown. This includes the bonus disc featured with Wind Waker pre-orders for the GameCube which contained the logo for Master Quest, as well as the GameCube Collector's Edition disc because it lacked direct reference to Ocarina of Time on its box art.
