I don't know what this is (a painting game?), but I want it.
 
I come in thinking this is a new thread and I'm greeted by people asking what kind of games are these ps2 games..

Haha, I was kinda tempted to PM a mod a while back asking to make a new thread, but I dunno, there's something charming about a box art thread which has been going for eight years (!)

Just a shame a lot of the early images hosted on image shack or photo bucket are long gone.

Agreed, the first page is a nostalgia trip. The original Idolm@ster is there!

I thought the girl on the right kind of looked like Hatsuho from Toukiden. Makes sense if it's the same artist.
 
Weeow, I might import Civ Rev 2 just for that box. It'll happily gather dust next to Hotline Miami Collected Edition~


That's a very late Japanese localisation of Big Hero 6: Battle in the Bay. I think the same publisher is also bringing over the bloody awful Frozen 3DS game.

I started watching Greg Sewart's Generation 16 series and it is great reminder of how Japan has always had the edge in box covers (for the large majority of games)
 
The TM on "Integrity and Faithlessness" kills me.

Literally no one is going to steal that subtitle for a game.

Although I would kind of love it if Sports Games started getting Japanese Game Subtitles:

FIFA 17: Integrity and Faithlessness

NHL 16: (the) Lightning Returns
