The softer curved design of the PAL versions of these cartridges casings always appealed to me more than the chunky ones sold in the US.

I never understood why they were different though.

The PAL SNES just reused the curved design of the original Japanese Super Famicom. I also find it way more appealing than the US version, but I grew up in Europe, so it is the one that I saw back in the day.

		FWIW I grew up with the North American design and I still find the JP/PAL design nicer.
