Mario & Luigi RPG 4: Dream Team Japanese Box Art

After the major disappointment that was Sticker Star, it's finally time for the Mario and Luigi series to rise and cuckold Paper Mario as the dominant Mario RPG series. Wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being my GOTY
 
NA, and it's a beaut!

Oh lawd, that Fr bubble placement
 
Heeey, I just noticed, they got rid of the black M and L's on Mario and Luigi's hats and colored them! That was one of my favorite little touches about the M&L games' art along with Luigi's socks! :(
 
I bought partners in time and inside story recently cause I never owned a DS and what a treat inside story has been so far. The game is so clever. I have been looking for a sequel to Mario RPG for the longest time and this series is definitely the closest I could have hoped for. Amazing games. Really looking forward to this new one. Always so creative
 
I like it.

I'm hoping this will be great. Bowser's Inside Story was so good, better than I thought it'd be (Partner's in Time was pretty good, too). This is pretty much the new Paper Mario for me. I'm not worried though, it looks amazing.
 
I don't like it! The western covers of SS and PiT were way flashier and more interesting than their JP counterparts, I wish they had continued on with the more 'cinematic' covers rather than conforming to the JP covers.

Don't like it. Too simple, not very colorful. Hope the NA boxart is better.

EDIT: I agree with Shig. The first two games' NA boxarts were much nicer.
 
Woah, Yoshi is there. I don't think Yoshi's ever been in a Mario & Luigi game, IIRC.

They were in the very first M+L game. One of the best side-quests too!

They're involved in a fun kind of fetch quest. Sue me, I like shiny macguffins haha

Haha, I kinda expected that he was in some sidequest thing I never did.

The JP covers are gorgeous. The US/EU covers are just messy.
