Not too bad.

But I'm sure people will find a reason to complain.

Edit: Yep, I was right.

If true, I quite like it.

Though the blue + yellow can look a bit like the Walmart colors. Oh well, that's okay I guess.

That seems weird. I don't associate that teal/blue with the Wii branding at all. Not sure if that's the point or not though...

I think it'd look better without the yellow ridge, or perhaps with a white ridge instead.

The best part is that it's a lot different than the Wii border. That is very very good imo

Better than white. The goddamn white, ugh, I want to see them getting rid of it already. Hope it's true for that alone.

I don't like the yellow.

Off topic I don't like Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth: box art.

That Spiderman pose creeps me out. The whole things looks wrong.

Wii U's logo is blue, not white.

And the ubisoft icons aren't consistent (unless I'm missing something).

I think they're mock-ups.

If you look at the Wii U logo on each of those, you'll notice that there is artifacting on the exact same spot on each. They're not clean like the rest of the box art.

Same impressions as everyone else. The blue is fine, the yellow needs to be white.

A grey stripe under would make more sense, not yellow.

EDIT: Just realized there is a grey strip, but it's VERY slim and hard to see.
