This is the image that Maximum Games is using for their upcoming Wii U title, Jett Tailfin. Could the Wii U boxart really be this similar to the Wii boxart? I doubt it, but we'll find out next week!



To me this just looks like the company saw the Wii game cases, and just made a guess on what the Wii U's game cases will look like.

Quote from comment section of this on GoNintendo:

Yeah. GAF thinks it's fake [cos it's using the lighter blue Wii U logo].


To me this provides a very solid point.

Thoughts?

Looks exactly like the Wii cases but with that extra U. I'm sure Nintendo would think of something more distinguishable than that.

Hopefully it's fake, I first that game will most likely be a downloadable Wii U game and not retail and that's just a slightly updated Wii box and Nintendo knows that would be a stupid business decision making the Wii U box the same as the Wii but with the "U" logo

Extremely doubt it. It looks CGI'd too (to me). They won't let a stupid game like this reveal boxstyles early.

I don't think the box art styles will be revealed until much nearer the Wii U's release. This one looks too similar to the Wii's for me and I think Nintendo will make it a bit more different, even if there aren't any huge differences.

I think it will be simple like 3DS boxes.

im pretty sure this was just made up to represent the wii u game, not actual confirmed box art. i doubt even nintendo's decided that

....Thats way too similar to how the wii cases look.i think theyll go with something similar tho. maybe theyll have the holes in them like the 3ds cases- less plastic is always better.

I doubt it. It should be distinct from the Wii cases.

I think its just a place holder until Nintendo unveils the design.

Meh. I don't know. I think it would be a mistake to have the Wii U box art look so similar to the Wii box art, especially with Reggie talking about having both consoles on the market simultaneously.

That's just my own opinion.

If the designs are too similar it would confuse the average consumer, who does not know the difference between the Wii U and the Wii.
