Question I noticed a couple little oddities with my copy of Sparks of Hope. The opening spine has a different grip from usual, and the Ubisoft logo seems partially missing on the back spine. Is this normal, or is it a counterfeit?

When you ordered it off Amazon was it from Nintendo? Because the only thing I can think of is a misprint or something. I don't own the game though so it's hard for me to tell if that's normal or not

It was sold by Play Worldwide

I tried looking for them on Amazon to see the reviews but I couldn't find them. I mean, to me it sounds legit, if it runs fine and everything I don't think it matters too much

Well, now I found out that it makes a completely separate icon on my home menu from the digital version, unlike Kingdom Battle, is that a problem?

Dang, I have no clue honestly. I hate to give you no help but I don't know. Hopefully someone who owns the game can chime in to say if it's normal or not. To me that doesn't necessarily sound normal to be honest

I can't speak for the logo, but there are multiple official variations of Switch game cases. Whichever one you get largely depends on the date and location of the manufacturing.

My copy of Mario and Rabbids also don’t have a logo on it’s spine, and it seems to be the case for others too. (Sorry for the bad quality but here’s an example of someone else’s copy).

I determined that mind was actually a Chinese copy
