The boxart for Rayman Legends is revealed at the end of the trailer and it shows that it will use blue plastic casing instead of white like the Wii or 3DS

Looks fine to me, I do like the Wii boxes but the blue is hardly an eye sore.

These only show the top logo and the covers, the video shows the actual full plastic casing.

Yeah I don't need to watch the video, I read the plastic was blue a couple of days ago.

It's a good thing, that way people will hopefully realize that Wii U games won't play on Wii systems.

Yeah this is what I thought, changing the colour of the cases may be a way to try and put a bit more a line between the Wii and the WiiU.

Surprised. Aren't Vita boxes blue in color? It's Nintendo, we must be talking Baby Blue, right?

Looks a bit darker than the top banner, but similar kind of blue.

It makes sense to differentiate the boxes from those of the Wii games, but part of me does wish they would stick to the white box.

Seems to be the first attempt to let the public know it's a different system by Nintendo. I can live with this.

Companies are running out of plastic colors for media these days. Soon they'll only have pink and purple left to pick from.

I don't like them at all. I have not been impressed with anything Nintendo related since the Gamecube. I am getting a Wii U but the only games I know I will be getting is Assassin's Creed and Rayman. Nintendo has dissappointed me time and time again for the last 6 or 7 years.

It looks like it's somewhere it between Azure and a deep sky blue.

This has exactly zero impact on system/game quality. I'm fine with it, could be solid black for all I care.

Who cares about box colors? The eye-cancer-green of 360 games killed my urge for nice box colors long ago.

At least they aren't lime green like ugly 360 covers.. but they do resemeble blu-ray blue.. Perhaps this is a subtle hint?

I think Microsoft is already using Purple for Kinect titles.

Box arts the most important part of the game to me. I mean if they're not colourful or nice then I don't even bother, I just don't buy those games.

Is this the first time that Legends has been confirmed as Wii U exclusive?

The cases look fine to me. I still haven't decided if I'll be getting a Wii U on or near launch but I most likely will be, mainly for games like this which I can't really pass up.
