Could be? Reminds me of the Gamecube's. But it could change soon. I like it.

Nice. I like the yellow, but it seems a little odd at the same time. I hope we get official confirmation whether these are the real deal or not.

I have to say; these are the most believable, and enjoyable designs I've seen so far. I really hope these turn out to be real.

I like 'em! Those might be the best looking covers I've seen.

Those look pretty nice to me. I'll be happy if these turn out to be the real box art designs.

I don't like them.

As mentioned before, they look like the GameCube boxes. And I think the light blue wouldn't look good with certain colors.
I also don't like where the "Nintendo Network" logo is. It would be cooler on the top left in the light blue tab.

LOL, also notice these are all Ubisoft games.

PSH. You just wish you were cool enough to like these.
I really like these. I actually kinda hope that these are the actual designs.

Be wary, the suck is coming.

Looks cool. I wonder if Nintendo is going for the traditional case size or a smaller variant like the PS3 cases?

Those look nasty.

The art for the games looks great.

The Wii U differentiator graphics looks like super old photoshop designs from the 90's.

No thanks.

Get rid of the ugly yellow and whatever color underlines the yellow.

Even the "swoop" style is so overplayed.

Nintendo did themselves a favor at retail by making their box art consistent with their Wii console. the nice aesthetic of the logo, colors, etc. gives you a high view of the product just by looking at it.

Nintendo should go with a motif that matches their console and logo.

swoop style:

Posted ImageObviously rquick and rough work here, but if you can look for potential, the color usage lends itself to higher perceived quality than the "wal-mart special" look of the fisher price looking designs.

Not really a fan for numerous reasons:
1. When it comes to display design, generally the colours you want to make the image stand out is blue or orange. If you have a look at movie posters and the like, it's most commonly one of the two. Don't know why, but these appeal the best. With the blue Wii U section at the top, and considering how full it is, you are making it far more important than the actual product image, and that's generally not the idea.

2. THAT YELLOW LINE! Grrr... makes me want to puke up a yellow-less rainbow. Whoever made that first one in Socalmuscle's post, I'd prefer that over whatever wherever is hosting the posting whatever.

3. I'm gonna be honest, I don't feel at all enticed to buy this type of box-art over what the competitors have. This includes the Wii as well. I'd rather buy the Wii template over this supposed Wii U template.

Trophy Cards are classy too! LOLZIGZAGOON

Looks alright, not sure if I like the yellow though. If this is official, I'm just waiting for the cries of "kiddie" and "fisher price" from the MS/Sony fanboys.. -_-

I have to agree with Auzzie Wingman and the others, as a designer I think they're woeful. Could you get more kindergarten? Total waste of space as well. These aren't legit. I hope not anyway.

The actual Wii U logo now is Grey + Blue, so I think they'll stick to that, and because of that, add a black or white 'background'. I like these, they look fresh, but I don't think they will fit with a lot of games boxarts.
No sig.

I like it, also there's a rumor that the yellow is supposed to be gold.
