The Box Art...

[Cuju]

I thought this box art was pretty believable. It is fan-made and in no way confirmed, but I kinda like it.

The reason why this is so believable is that it follows the golden box art trend that started with Ocarina of Time. It has the updated logo and dons an important feature of the game on it: Link on his bird. This can be compared to Link and the King of Red Lions on the Wind Waker box art or Link and Wolf Link on the Twilight Princess box art. I wouldn't be surprised if the final product looked similar to this...

This matches the trend of what we've seen with Zelda Box-arts. It's golden, and it's logo features an important story element, and below is another important point of the game. I wouldn't be suprised at all if the real thing looked similar to this...

The British merchant HMV displayed some box art a while ago (source), but we can't know if this is from Nintendo or if they created it.

It looks to me like HMV or someone else created it. Hopefully we'll get some new official artwork for the final box.

If this didn't have the 25th anniversary logo on the top, this box-art would would be PERFECT!

I wouldnt be surprised if this was the actual box art for the game. To me it seems the closest thing to what it proabably would be at the moment.

That's just an instore display, it doesn't even use the new logo.

In the second Boxart Caelus posted, is that official art with Skyloft, or is it a fan made painting?

That's official artwork from a wallpaper they posted last week.

I really like this one, save the T rating. I firmly believe it will be E10+. (But that's just me.)

What exactly do you mean? There is gonna be a "Wii motion plus required" on it.

I know, I mean that they should put an warning saying: "Wii Motion Plus Required", but they shouldn't show the image of a Wii Motion Plus, because it is not necessary and the box art should only have images from the game.

i love the box art that GaroXicon is sggesting, maybe have phi or Lord Girahim looking menacing in the background. =)

maybe if we had something like this in gold so its less final fantasy ish

That would be awesome if Skyward Sword box art where at least this good, but it's ok I will like the box art they give us anyway.
