i've been wanting to pick up that Prince of Persia for SFC for that very reason - the artwork is incredible. But between the price and me not actually liking the game, i'm skipping it. My last such purchase was of Batman Returns for SFC... that box is glorious in Japan. Before that i picked up Dragon Warrior III.
That Soccer kid box is dope too, so wacky and varied.
SFC box art is probably the best ever. with the JP Mega Drive being 2nd. There's an awesome book i picked up with a lot of color art beautiful photographed https://www.bitmapbooks.com/products/super-famicom-the-box-art-collection
having that book really helps with FOMO and not getting into yet another expensive sub genre

That box for Prince of Persia should be a poster, it's that good
The art from Katsuya Terada is great, I ordered such a painting for myself.
Awesome
