Tits Club: Swimsuit Edition would be a better title.

I love this.
Nice to see the Capcom artworker they fired landed a new job.

At least this time it's in a territory where English is not a major language.

When you run out of hair colours you need something to be able to tell all the girls apart.

Such a great piece of cover art.
Eyepatches are mainly cute IMO. <3

Why is it that budget releases in Japan have to ruin the box art?
Is it punishment for buying the game cheaper and not at launch?
They could be much more discrete about it haha.

Whoa whoa whoa... is that a special occasion Wii U shade of blue or a color error? Looks very nice.

Seems the 'mature' titles will have that shade here - Zombi U also has it, iirc.

So this is getting released there and we still don't have a Western version yet?
Sucks man. Sucks bad.

I love the mature shade for the Wii U stuff, I wish that was standard! Looks awesome, also the MH cover just looks awesome too which helps lol.
Makes me sad seeing Japan get budget releases of Square Enix games I want to play but we don't even get full priced versions yet (ever?).

Budget release for Rocket Slime 3DS? Might have to jump on that as it's looking less and less likely it'll get a Western release at this point.
Probably a placeholder. At least I hope so.

Looks taken straight from the menu.
One of these looks better than the other. Why the different art?

Target audience?
PSP = hardcore epic games with hardcore epic art for hardcore epic gamers
Wii = baby shit that looks like toys for little stupid babies

Unpopular opinion alert: I love Prof. Layton, but he and Luke look so out of place in that box art, and as such, the game itself.
The Ace Attorney and Layton art syles do not mesh well at all IMO.

hipster adol on the left.
That cat on the ground between Layton and Phoenix sure looks familiar....
Maybe I'm reaching...
EDIT: Or maybe not.
It doesn't has to be Sissel, but it's surely a black cat with a red scarf. Just look at the image without the title:

Nothing's more cute than a huge gaping hole in your occular cavity.

My first thought, lol.
The psp one is really amazing!
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME
And yellow eyes. I won't say that I can't imagine you denying that there is no way that that cat is not Sissel, but I'm thinking it.

What's the story behind the darker Wii U boxes? I like them.
