Wii Box Art

[Count]

Gamestop, EB Games, and Amazon have all updated their websites with what appears to be official Wii box art (i.e. no "for display purposes only"). If legit, the asymmetric white bar looks top-heavy like it wants to roll right. That's a long-winded way of saying it looks ugly, subjectively speaking.

I can only imagine, however, that some fancy shmancy branding agency helped Nintendo design the new box art and starting asking all these "Who am I?" questions for the Wii to answer. The ad group then determined that Wii provides a different take on gaming and decided an asymmetric box design should be used as well.

Those look pretty good to me.

Actually, no. The system is just "Wii" not "Nintendo Wii."

I have seen these box arts before, they look pretty cool. I wonder if they are real.

Not bad. It looks pretty legit, so I'm guessing that the final product will be something like that.

Where do you see that they are official? Read the bold in this part of the article:

Then again, I italicized text too and that seems to hint that it is the official box.

So, you see, I didn't really know, sorry. You don't have to get so mad.

[LemonManX]

I would be willing to say its probably official. Didn't we see a shot of the TP Boxart from Nintendo themselves? Or was I just slightly insane when I heard that.

I dont like the TP one I want it cooler. I want it to look my poster on my wall.

[Wii_Rulez]

I thought I should add these to your findings.

[Kindrik]

hmm. I actually don't like the Red Steel art. The logo's cool but they probably could've found a better image to put up there.

I like that one the best.

[Maddocks]

Thats why it needs to say Nintendo Wii because it just says Wii....to small....needs to cover the box. Letting people know.

WII alone wont work.

[Kindrik]

I really see no problem with it. In fact I prefer it to simply say Wii and it really isn't as small as you believe it is. It should be find.

[oneill2004uk]

i'm glad they've designed the box like that nice and clean! good work Nintendo

[LemonManX]

It looks nice, especially since Nintendo stuck with the Wii being known as simply that... as opposed to the Nintendo Wii, its as simple as Nintendo's marketing plan really so I have to say that I like it, nice work it is.
