I don't really care about the boxes, but I don't like the fact that the Greatest Hits usually include patches.

In my case, it's not that I hate the red boxes.  In some cases, I think it actually looks good.  Like the Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY edition.

 

My issue is that only a handful of games actually get a Greatest Hits release... but every game (with a few exceptions) gets a standard black label release.  So to have a nice uniform collection of similar looking game cases, I would need to avoid the red ones.  Because if I went red, I would need everything to be red, which is impossible. :)

 

Of course, I think it's inevitable that I'll wind up adding Greatest Hits releases to my collection someday... infact I'm going to begrudgingly get the Mass Effect Trilogy with it's big misshapen game case because it's the only way to get Mass Effect 1 in disc form (I don't do digital).  So it's not just Greatest Hits, it's really any sort of oddly shapen or colored game boxes that irks me. xD

Can't you keep Greatest Hits and originals segregated?

I bet libraries drive some of you nuts. All those books on the shelf, different sizes...different colors...hahahaha.

 

That said, if given the choice I'll take an original...but by no means do I care if a game has a red case or not. I grew up with books/variety...so I'm good with whatever :)

I could, but having 28 original black labels and 2 greatest hits on the end still doesn't do much for the senses.  Would rather those 2 just join their 28 friends in all their original black label glory... wherever possible.

Nintendo thought it'd be a good idea to do this with just one game out of their entire library for no real reason. It still looks sucky even though I don't have that many games.

At least with the greatest hits games you can switch out the case for a clear one and it'll fit in quite well. There's nothing that can fix this :(
