Box Art Challenge was presumably a series of simple HTML games that revolved around the player guessing the title of ten video games based off of a scrambled image of the box art for each game, available on Nintendo's Nsider subdomain. The only surviving version of this game was released on May 4th of 1999, though the description for the game provides the game's release date and the phrase "The Toughest Yet", in addition to stating that "We've read your e-mails claiming that our challenges are too easy, so we've decided to make this particular batch of box art our toughest yet"[1], making it seem that there were additional versions either before or after the May 4th edition.
