New box art

#1

Post new box art for recently announced games, systems, and accessories from any geographic region.

If I didn’t already own a 3DS XL I might have picked up that retro model.

I like the inside of the NES model. I don’t like the controller on the outside, though.

I’m really hoping the Mario Kart 7 bundle comes back for the holiday.

#3

Anyone getting one of these?

#4

What are the must play Vita games?

#5

Gravity Rush, Killzone: Mercenary, Super Stardust Delta, WipEout 2048, Hot Shots Golf and Virtua Tennis 4 are all great. The main issue with the platform is that you can find very similar games on the PS3 with the exception for Gravity Rush. It’s also really nice to have portable versions of games like Persona, Ys, Final Fantasy, and Gust’s Atelier series.

I’m a bit tempted to get a Playstation TV so I can play Vita games with a full-sized gamepad, but getting a new slim model Vita would be more useful. Unfortunately they are still comparatively expensive.

As long as you don’t mind visual novels, Danganronpa is pretty tight.

#7

I’ve been meaning to pick those up. Have you played the sequel, Nick?

#8

I’m in the process of it. The first class trial was refreshingly difficult, especially when you’d normally expect it to be easier for newer players who skipped the original. It’s just really good so far, I’m constantly impressed by both the writing and the humor. As a game/visual novel it’s always been aware of itself, but the sequel takes it to another level as a meta-commentary on the original game. The further I get in, the more it feels like the Metal Gear Solid 2 to Trigger Happy Havoc.

The mini-games aren’t great though, and the fanservice is worse than 1.

The non-extreme limited edition is pretty neat.

#14

Very neat!

Yuck.

#17

I like it. It’s a good match for the subtitle.

#18

Nathan is thinking “Fuck. Naughty Dog is going to put a bullet through my head by the end of this game” on that cover.

#19

That long gameplay footage of the game looked impressive. I felt more excited for it than FFXV. That might change though.

Cover looks fine? Don’t see what’s bad about it.

It’s just another generic male protagonist box art. I hate it all the more because it looks like The Darkness.
