I've never even seen the boxart. I saw a very tiny shot but... well it was very tiny so there's no difference from not seeing it. I've seen some offical art where Alm has blue hair though.

Here's the boxart...  I would think that it's just a stupid error on the part of the artists with the boxart. I think on NES, they sometimes had to use the same color for people's hair and armor because they couldn't use as many colors for each picture, but I think they could've had him with green hair if they wanted to. The boxart is pretty odd as it is. What I'm wondering is who the other two people are in the boxart. Celica's on the left and Alm's in the middle... but is that Baro on the right? And who's the guy in the background? |

The guy in the background is the last boss and apparently one of the strongest FE bosses around...
And does anyone else think that the whole idea of Hector(blue), Eliwood (red) and Lyn (green) was actually intentionally molded after the FEG boxart?

Now that you mention it... that is kind of an odd coincidence  ;; Ahh... Seti... are you sure the guy in the background is the last boss? I thought the last boss was the dragon named Doma or something like that. Garnef was also there, but he don't look like that XD Are you referring to Hades? I forgot what his portrait looks like (if he even had one), but that's the only person I could see fitting there =( |

Well I'm probably wrong...
But I know Garnef isn't too major in this...he's more of a comic relief in some aspects...

Wow, I can't believe there's a Fire Emblem game with such crappy artwork especially for a box art since box art isn't limited like an NES. The NES can display 16 colors on screen at once so that could be the reason. I doubt it though since I've seen art on the offical site that has Alm with blue hair.

Did you ever see the boxart for the first FE?
Marth's kinda... echk. With the way he's dressed, he kinda reminds me of Pit from Kid Icarus with a cape ; )
I suppose the FE1 one has a bit more of the "FE style" into it than the FE Gaiden box... but I think it still looks funny =\
(I tried to get the boxart up here, but it wouldn't cooperate >.< )

It kinda strikes me as suspicious both Alm and Lyn have green hair and can use swords and bows...-.-

Yeah I was wondering why the hell can Alm use a bow when he gets the Falchion. That's very weird. BTW I have no idea what the last boss looks like. Oh I beat him, I just can't figure out what the hell that I was looking at. I saw the eye and that's about all I can make out.

The last boss (I found, due to my curiousity) is actually Dorma, one of the goddesses in the story. I'm not quite sure what Dorma was, but it looked like a three-way cross between a cyclops, a dragon, and Swamp Thing =P (and if I translated the class right, it's a "Goddess"... awfully ugly goddess, eh?)
Just a side note... isn't it cool how Alm defeats Dorma?
(POSSIBLE SPOILER)
*Alm tosses away his shield... jumps high into the air... and stabs Dorma right on the eye* =)
(END POSSIBLE SPOILER)

Yeah I know his name's Dorma but I just can't tell what it is when you fight it. It says Dark God in the translation but I see a large tree with eyes. And yes it's very cool the way he kills him. You think maybe it inspired the scene in Chrono Trigger where Crono does the samething to the dragon tank?

Wouldn't be unusual, Chrono Trigger is inspired by alot of things, in fact did you know alot of Chrono Trigger's characters and events follow the bible?
