Show pics of the game being played and the disc itself and I'd be more inclined to believe it.

Looks like a display box without the coming soon sticker on it. It could also be a printed out copy of the cover as you can tell the quality looks kind of pc printerish and not glossy industrial.

Someone probably photoshopped something, printed it, and then slipped it inside a Wii case.

Dude, you wouldn't have to photoshop anything to create that fake, you'd just need access to a standard computer printer and work in retail (and thus have access to a machine that prints receipts.)

He just printed out a SSBB insert, stuck it in a Wii case, and printed out a fake receipt at a register at whatever retail outlet he works at.

I he had a copy, he'd have shots of him playing it on TV, that's all there is to it.

I could do the same thing easily. I could print ouit a homemade MGS4 insert, stick in a PS3 case, and phony up a receipt.

If you are a manger at EB Games, it's not that hard to add an item into the computer. i.e. Making a fake receipt.

What do you mean by fake?

It's a REAL Wii case, and real homemade insert, and a phonied receipt.

That has nothing to do with having the actual game.

If he had the game, he'd take a picture of the disc and then him actually playing the game.

Anyone can create that case in about 15 minutes.

There isn't anything to point out, it's pretty easy to do that. He probably printed the cover and put it in another game box and then just photoshopped the receipt.

Or works in retail (or knows someone who does) and took about 3 seconds to print out a fake receipt. It would be even easier than printing out and making the insert.

It really isn't impressive at all, anyone can make fake inserts and receipts.
That would be so, so simple to make.

My guess is that some printed out a copy of that pic so that it would fit inside a Wii game box and simply slid it into the plastic cover. That receipt could be from any game.

If you need to log in, use "guest" for the name and "nintendo" for the password. Just like that, no caps.

It's the Title of the Game on the receipt

"Super S / B WII "

That's the main flaw I see.

thats possible. I've seen gamestop get copies of boxes long before the game was released, but not this early.

Bingo, did it actually take people this long to figure out. A super high-res version of the cover was released the other day. Anyone can print it and put it on the cover a Wii game.

There is no photoshop involved. The only proof you need is that the game has not been released.

This is, however, the official boxart.

everything is right with the cover, thats the one nintendo gave gamestop/eb games. the problem is with the reciept.

two things are wrong with it.

first, the right sku isn't on the reciept, its a made up one.

second, when you get a reciept for the game, the receipt doesn't tell you what system its for, thats what the sku is for. The title is also wrong on the reciept.

Nintendo's Logo on that box is White, when Nintendo's Logo is always in Red unless the Background is Red.

Edit I just looked at the Official Box art and I'm wondering why Nintendo Changed it.

Also the way that receit is leaned is leaning on the box just doesn't work and the phone and box don't seem to have a specific border between eachother like they flow together.

I should've refraised that I meant I didn't notice that since I only looked at the Box, and the Clerks name on the receipt (spelling?)
