I meant the boxart.
Never seen it before.
I saw it on Gamefly's website
Huh, noticed how they made DanganRonpa prominent this time rather than downplaying it relative to the English words in the name. Probably because "Trigger Happy Havoc" really wasn't memorable and most just remembered DanganRonpa afterall.
Within the last month I believe, though it got leaked via a VA by accident beforehand I believe.
Oh, I think it was this week.
I like it.
Oh wow, I thought I heard the Vita version was digital only too. Nice.
Is the boxart a spoiler?!
I see a younger/kid version of some of the characters from the 1st game.
They changed their mind. The physical Vita version will be exclusive to Gamestop/EB Games in North America.
There is only one returning character from DR1 on that boxart, and as far as I know, the only returning character in the game. Unless you already knew who it was, I doubt you'd be able to tell. The character got a pretty radical makeover... lol
Ah, that is good to hear. If I pick the game up I'll get it there then.

I love that One Piece artwork.
Wow what a very nice boxart! This might just be my first physical Vita game purchase since Gravity Rush!

Who knows, if they turned around and made the Vita version retail, they could for the Wii U version as well. There's no date for the game yet, just "2014" IIRC.

Beautiful.
The stupid memory card requirement ruins it a tad.

This looks very nice. Much better than the cover for the first game.
Now posting in the official Danganronpa 2 boxart appreciation topic.

I'd suggest anyone who hasn't played the first Dangan Ronpa but plans on doing so to not look too hard at the box art for Dangan Ronpa 2, (better yet, don't look at it at all) as it contains a spoiler.

Not a fan of Bays designs but I like that, probably due to the use of colours

What a boring cover. A generic pose AND no colour.

It probably won't occur to you anyway if you haven't played it yet, so don't worry about it.Too late.
It would be worse if you were currently playing the first one, but haven't finished it. The spoiler would be much more apparent then.
Prefer the PS4 UK one the blue top works alot better than the green with this background.
I know nothing about Borderlands. Is that meant to be a 'Ground Zeroes' type game for BL3 or is it the equivalent to the PS3/360 AssCreed game whilst BL3 is the PS4/X1/PC AssCreed game?
I think it's actually supposed to be a spinoff game that takes place between BL1 and BL2, but yeah the name made me think it was a precursor to BL3 as well, haha. It's a pretty bad title imo.
It's honestly kind of disappointing that the black/white ones seem to have completely vanished. Though now that I think about it I wonder if Sony going this way is partially the result of blu-ray catching on?
Would be kinda nice if we could just have the system logo in the corner or something though, similar to PC games when not released by companies like Ubisoft or 2K that insist on that fucking hideous border retailers concocted, or many Japanese games before global adoption of banners came into play.

Ok this is hot-fire:
This box art wants me to buy the game right now.
This is a very effective box art.

The US PlayStation blog confirmed the same cover a while ago:
Only missing the developer logos obviously.
Small, from Gamestop. Looks like a more zoomed-out image than the Japanese one. I like it better.
Might be the wrong place to ask, but what was that PSV/PS4/PS3 game that came out in Japan recently that had towers for a boxart? Combat was kinda like Valkyria Chronicles.
