"IF" this is the real box, it looks like what we have been seeing for a little time (at least what I have seen EB show on their Display Only boxes in the store). Link on a Boat. But ummm....yeah

Tell PGC that, then...

Yea, PGC is a pretty trustworthy site. I have no reason to doubt that this is the real box...although that thing in the lower right corner does look a little strange...

If it's real, it's a crappy boxart. Mediocre says it has spelling errors in it. :unsure:

IF it is real which is highly unlikely Nintendo decided to change there box styles in japan and spelling errors are the new hip as you might say. I dont care what your american site says that is not real...

Bottom right hand corner: "And is it our adventure!"
"Explore great world world"

If you saw that on a box would you believe it was real?

I would get the game just for the spelling errors!! :D

Yeah! That's what I heard too. I'm not so sure about this one being the official box.

even if it was real, it still looks kinda crappy. if you saw that in a store and it didnt have the word Zelda on it would you buy it? and i'm not saying that the graphics look bad, its just the picture they used, its so bleh

IGN had it as well though I can't find it...

Anyway, they said that it was seen at a Japanese Toys R Us and they weren't sure if it was the actual game box or an advertisment made by TRU....

So I guess that it's just an advertisment by TRU... :unsure:

I really like the box art. I am hoping the American one is the same. Looks very colorful... Which is a good thing.

And its kind of hard to explain unless you see them with your own eyes. But if your an Xbox fan then Japan isnt for you. :p

but meh *shrugs* doesnt matter

they shouldn't use anything from the actual game, they should do some artwork just for the box, like with ocarina of time.

Angrist

They ALWAYS put artwork on the box. Why would they put a crappy in-game sailing picture on it??? So they'll get people who like sailing to buy it? :confused:
