New Super Mario Bros.: Making Your Wii Shelf Asymmetrical
We got a final box copy of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, and four-player platforming co-op isn't the only thing making it unique. The box that you'll see on store shelves shortly is emphatically red. We're talking about a shade of red that a redshirt freshman at Rutgers would be embarrassed to wear on Karl Marx's birthday.
Our pristinely monochrome Wii collections may be a thing of the past, but we can be thankful that Nintendo hasn't gone full GBA on NSMB Wii and printed six alternate boxes. Let's be honest; the game is going to sell enough as it is.
What do you think of the HOLY CRAP LAUNCH THE ALERT FIGHTERS red of the Mario box?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
