Nintendo JP color codes Mature titles / Dynamic Slash boxart

check out the new mature titled game cases, pretty nifty I'd say. Also, check out the box art for Dynamic Slash. Sexy indeed!

Do you think they'll bring this strategy over to NA/EU? I think they should

Color Code games?? AWESOME!

There also doing this with Madworld.

Those look pretty nice if you ask me.

Huh, pretty cool. Looks better in black if you ask me.paradigm68

Agreed.

You could just do this yourself. All you'd need is a few ones and an electronics department who knows what a transistor is actually used for (hint NOT RADIOSHACK) or a fabric department that doesn't specialize in glitter or trademark designs.

Its not hard to change the color of the case, what is hard is buying a game that isn't eco-life friendly, or as us in the business say, cheap.

Normally I'm not into the whole boxart craze but that looks great. And the Color Codes will help alot. Good Job now PLEASE NINTENDO Bring this game to NA!!!

Sexy.

Please no, it still bugs me having one red game in my collection. :?

I want a black wii =[

This lol, I don't like my collections being inconsistent like that. The black does look cool though.

I think this is a good idea to be honest. It started with NSMBW with it's red case making it stand out.

With every developer that's supposedly "tried" with their vision of a "mature" title, this only helps them out. Although, I'm not sure if this is just Nintendo/Nintendo published titles that utilize the case colors or if it's everyone. I think it should be everyone if Nintendo is about helping companies out, so that way, everyone can get over this "Wii owners only buy Nintendo titles" bs.

Nothing wrong with making things "stick out"

all quotes aside... I think the boxart is pretty sexy :P

Wow, I never really noticed but Zengeki has a kickass boxart!

Oh, the black color thing is pretty cool, I like it.

Dear Internet,

Indiana Jones II is in a brown case.

Please stop saying Nintendo is the only one.

lol I never knew this, thanks for the heads up!

I figured it was up to Nintendo (which it probably is since they liscense the games), and I figured they'd give companies a hard time if they wanted a different colored case.

Ok... good... maybe... At least I know that I'm not the only one here with a mild case of OCD. :D

When I picked up Zack and Wiki (I can't seem to find it new, locally), I passed on two other used copies because one didn't have the case and one had no booklet. I called and found one with both, but the case itself, when I arrived, was a black DVD case. After I bought it, I rifled through my DVD collection and poached the white case from the movie Blow and swapped everything out.

Now everything is back to normal, sans the NSMB Wii. It's not so bad if you put it at the end of the games, but if you have them in alphabetical order, you're SOL.

This has also kept me from buying the bundle deal on the black Wii remotes with motion plus, even though I do like how they look... I just can't bring myself to do it. :?

They should color code Mature games here as well. But only Mature games because if every rating had a color is defeat the purpose.

I don't care what color the box is as long as the actual game gets a NA release, though the box art does look good with a black case.

Its just a case! If your going to complain over something as trivial as what color it is, something is seriously wrong with you.
