I really like the Wii U banner at the top, really hoping the art stays the same for NA

 

[Roo]

Nope!

:O
My life is a lie
Ok, fair enough. I thought it was a NOA thing

 

[Valkerionseven]

Willing to bet we get an "action" boxart, generic male lead, attacking something off focus while yelling.

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

So...beautiful...can't..even..

 

[Dénouement]

It would be great if we got that, colored box and all.

I'm still annoyed that the only colored case I have is for MK8, which is red, which looks so UGLY with the Wii U blue banner.

Can't wait for the NA version to just be a close-up of some guy's ugly face.

I really hope we don't, but I think we probably will.

The first thing I did when I got MK8 was to exchange its case with Need For Speed's.
Best decision ever.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Black case?, nope, nope, NOPE!

It's the default one in Japan.

 

[protomouse]

Watch the European cover be all like:

 

[GiantEnemyGoomba]

 

[Min0]

Watch the European cover be all like:

Still looks good in my opinion! The usk is not a problem since I'm not german

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Watch the European cover be all like:

Pegi 12 != USK 16.

 

[chadboban]

Just as I had hoped! It looks sooooo gooood. Hope they don't change it in NA/EU. Xenoblade Chronicles' boxart remained largely intact barring the "Chronicles" part.

Japan

Europe

America

 

[protomouse]

Pegi 12 != USK 16.

I know But Pegi 12 isn't Cero C either... it was just that the premade mockup had the PEGI sticker already on it... it was meant as a spoof

Still looks good in my opinion! The usk is not a problem since I'm not german

I thought so too, and then Bayonetta happened.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

That's gorgeous!

I also wish the game was called in the west "Xenoblade X" only. The Chronicles part was never needed!

 

[zma1013]

Hmm, that's very, un-japanese-like to me. If I didn't know, I'd think it was the US version. Looks okay but seems very plain to me, I dunno.

Clouds censoring Mechonis.

That's gorgeous!

It's strange, as an official title I've gotten used to the Chronicles part. It seems weird without it, but I don't even say/type the Chronicles.

 

[silva1991]

Beautiful

 

[nckillthegrimace]

That's gorgeous!

I also wish the game was called in the west "Xenoblade X" only. The Chronicles part was never needed!

No, it really wasn't. They should have dropped it for this game.

 

[hatchx]

With WiiU, AKAIK most of our boxarts here have matched the japanese boxart.

Which is a damn good thing and the reason why WiiU boxarts have been great. It's literally deterred me from downloading anything because I want the boxarts.

 

[Josh7289]

Whoa.

 

[è£ ç”²æ‚ªé¬¼æ‘æ­£]

So the western title would be Xenoblade Chronicles Cross? Sure is a tongue twister.

 

[Blunoise]

so is it good or bad that the wii u xenoblade bundle is #3 on japan Amazon?

 

[Enforced]

The first thing I did when I got MK8 was to exchange its case with Need For Speed's.

I did that with new super mario bros u.

 

[razgriz417]

April for Japan, later this year for the rest.

awesome cant wait. Got my Wii u this holiday for this and bayonetta

 

[redblack85]

amazing cover!

 

[dreamfall]

Absolutely beautiful.

 

[foxuzamaki]

lovely.

 

[block tower]

gorgeous. Xenoblade Chronicles still has one of the best boxarts from the 7th generation. glad to see that Xenoblade Chronicles X is continuing that tradition. ill probably cave and buy a Wii U once this game releases in NA.

 

[GayForMaster]

Saw this on my Twitter feed, it looks gorgeous. Hopefully NA gets the same one.

So fucking glorious....

 

[Soul Beat]

It's glorious! NoA better deliver this!

 

[Kouriozan]

Watch the European cover be all like:

Only if you buy a Limited Edition

 

[jimi_dini]

Pegi 12 != USK 16.

Still looks good in my opinion! The usk is not a problem since I'm not german

For the Limited Edition it will be.

/crosses fingers for Nintendo to use reversible covers

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

Lopoks very nice. Please remain the same when coming to America

Spoiler

along with the Wii U bundle

 

[J@hranimo]

The case is black because the game is rated cero C. It will 100% be blue for the NA/EU versions.

Oh? Ok didn't know that, I thought they got it black because Xenoblade is awesome lol. I learned something today!

In that case, I expect the exact same one.

 

[Curufinwe]

Can't wait to buy my 2nd WiiU game.

 

[Astral Dog]

I don't want to see the ass of the mech.

 

[EloquentM]

Not too bad, better than most of the horrible Wii U artwork. Especially looking at Splatoon.

Are you even trying anymore?

 

[wrowa]

I thought so too, and then Bayonetta happened.

The original Xenoblade also had both USK and PEGI on the cover if you bought the limited edition. Nintendo always produces those for the entirety of Europe (which also ruins the backcover completely).

 

[Shadow Hog]

So the western title would be Xenoblade Chronicles Cross? Sure is a tongue twister.

No, they've explicitly pronounced it Xenoblade Chronicles [Ecks] in English-language Nintendo Directs.

 

[keakster]

Hoping that we get a reversible cover like the NA Xenoblade did, otherwise I may be printing my own!

 

[nordique]

Nintendo's boxart this gen has been fantastic. This is another great example. Hopefully we get some similarly great boxart in North America

 

[neojubei]

Saw this on my Twitter feed, it looks gorgeous. Hopefully NA gets the same one.

damn is actually happening. i cannot wait

 

[Slayer-33]

Delicious

Yeah, as much as I think Xenoblade the game was outright garbage the cover is nice. Have it on one of my background rotations

 

[Squishy3]

Had to do it, guys.

 

[TheGreatLugia]

Had to do it, guys.

Best Buy already has it covered.

I can't.
