Amazon.ca: THESE are real Wii U boxes

VOOK

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.
Well the high rez artwork featured on all of those is available for other systems, but it's very consistent across the board with logo placement. The ESRB, Nintendo Network and the Ubisoft logo, that too that they're all Ubisoft games.

They're Amazon CompressedTM too so can't see any 'shop points.

Real? I dunno.

I like the yellow. It's a good, unique color for a border to separate the top with the bottom.

On the plus side:
They look very different from the Wii cases and branding.

On the down side:
They look absolutely hideous.

Yellow should be white or just not there at all.

Other than that, I like it. Nice GCN throwback.

I'm just glad it's not an exact clone of the Wii boxes with a U added. That would be really lame.

My word that yellow is gross.

I really, really, really wish the cliche of comparing video game products to Fisher Price would stop.

The yellow is bad.


If that was white instead, I'd dig it. Nice and simple. Gamecube throwback is cool too.

It's weird seeing the Assassin Creed guy about to slam his axe thing into the head of some other guy with the friendly Wii logo looming above.

The definition of front-butt.
:lol Look at that avengers box. Spidey swingin from the clouds again.

It doesn't really match with the AC or avengers box. Works fine for just dance though. The colors don't work. Maybe all it needs is a drop shadow like the GC boxes...

The blue/yellow combination looks cheap as fuck. Nintendo should stick with a white banner for the logo.

Orange would have been more preferable to yellow, given the whole eShop colour theme which is now neatly integrating itself into Nintendo's colour palette. Other than that, I like the design!
 
doesn't look great, doesn't look terrible. it works.

i wonder if the box itself will be blue? i was assuming that nintendo would stick with the white aesthetic, but you'd think they'd want to keep the branding consistent + make it immediately distinguishable from a wii game box.
