Not sure if this is the actual box art for Mario Kart Wii or or just a clever case of photoshopping , but it does show Mario and Luigi along with the “Wii Wheel”. Whatever the case may be, it looks decent and if you are fans of Mario Kart you will only have to wait until Spring to get it for your Wii.
I am not usually a huge fan of racing games since Pole Position left the arcade (telling my age here), but I do like Mario Kart and Diddy Kong Racing well enough and of course The Simpsons: Hit and Run was just absolutely hilarious. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to this title and hopefully Nintendo will send us pics of the box art soon, so we can confirm or disprove this particular photo.
I think this might be photoshopped only because whenever a developer or publisher releases a box art for a game, it usually isn’t art that was reused already. If you look at the screens HERE, you’ll see the picture that’s being used for this “box art” was the initial screenshot when the game was announced.
My 2 cents
I agree with you. I noticed that when I searched our site. But, it is indeed a pretty box.
Oh yea, this person undoubtedly has great photoshopping skills if it does turn out to be photoshopped.
it certainly looks photoshopped to me. Some of the text is crystal clear and then other parts look blurry.
the shadow of the karts under them is pretty cool. can’t wait!
