We have a winner!!! Nice to see Nintendo used that image for the box art. When it got released everyone fell in love with it. Still one of the sweetest background I've had on my computer.

I like the Wii logo at the top. but hasnt any company just thought of using a light overlay instead of a full colour? I personally think it would look alot better with the Wii bar just faded ontop not covering the whole thing. Doing that could also make for some interesting designs too. I like the box art and i love the Wii bar at the top but personally the case looks too...artsy for that Wii bar.

Swiit ..

They should do the Wii header in embossed gold .. expensive, but, the first true Zelda in a decade.

This game alone is gonna sell the Wii, so I'm glad they're going all out for it. Any TRUE Zelda game has a gold cartridge/box.

Nice! That's lovely!

I think the Wii at top is just fine. It's enough so that people know it's the Wii version but it's not trying to take over. Works for me!

Is this confirmed?

That looks so awesome. I'm hoping Wii game cases are in white plastic, to set them apart from 360 green and PS3 blue (assuming they run with the Blu-Ray thing).

What about this variation that gamespot has posted up on their zelda page?

its ok..
alittle over the top, and other than link and the wolf, it doesn't really give you a feel for the game itself. Good design lets you feel the game and its atmosphere. This just feels like a decorative wall tapestry. Twilight Princess: stars, a beautiful sky, a feeling of calm... Maybe that's just me.

And did Link really need the earring in his right ear?
I mean Tingle is bad enough...

Special pre-order edition maybe?

Simply amazing. I LOVE the Wii bar, it looks perfect. I agree with Dracula, these should be in white-milky, see-through cases.

btw if you look on the nintendo's press site the game has been rated T

I like this. The Wii bar looks just how I imagined it.

Uhhhh, I think this might have come from an IGN Wii board thread about taking that white Wii template and making box art.

The designs in the gold kind of give it a persian feel...

"I'm hoping Wii game cases are in white plastic,"

Umm....Yeah that won't exactly look good next to the Black Wii I'm planning to get.





I hate White Wii's!
There I said it.

@17

First of all, I'll say that it's gorgeous. The gold will really catch people's eyes.

I'll also be the first to point out that I'm glad it doesn't say "Nintendo" at the top. This will encourage people to just call it "Wii" instead of "Nintendo Wii".

Very very very very nice. I also love the Wii logo, and as you said, Dan, I like that it just says "Wii". People have been saying "Nintendo Wii" for FAR too long now...

"alittle over the top, and other than link and the wolf, it doesn't really give you a feel for the game itself."

What Zelda box gave you a feel for the game itself? The original had a picture of a shield. LttP was a gold box with "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" with a sword and shield on a gold cover. Wind Waker just featured the title and the boat, all gold cover.

This falls right in line with all the other Zelda box art.

@18 - I'm right there with ya. I picked up Unlimited Saga from a bargain bin thinking it looked interesting. The $10 I paid for it was way too much. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to PAY me to take it now I've played it. Very nice lookin box though.

very sexy. the box-art itself is nice and the box design is a nice touch as well. its probably been shown like a bazillion times but does neone know what the Wii game disc will look like? design wise that is.
