Old!

 

[Tritroid]

Old!

No, the box has been changed slightly with the scan/visor detail added.

Still looks odd imo.

 

[TheGreenGiant]

nice if a bit ordinary but nice - excpet you can't tell what the things in the white/dark areas are.

I don't know if I like this. :|

Well, the screens are anyway. They were posted yesterday.

 

[TTP]

Cool, looks like Kermit is in the game!

[hint: look at the upper left corner of the MP2 boxart]

j/k btw

 

[CrisKre]

The boxart looks miles better than before. Good.

For reference:
OLD

NEW

STILL NOT (but close enough)

 

[Trevelyon]

Looks cluttered to me, and wtf! is that thing in the top left corner?

HIDEOS!

HIDEOS!

there is hope the PAL boxart will be different (we can only hope it'll be better too). that thing in the top left corner is a Luminoth. The thing in the bottom right corner is an Ing.

these photoshop artists are:

 

[TheGreenGiant]

they should have just done one of Samus coming out of the dark - similar to the artwork but obviously more polished. I've decided I do not like the cover.

Too cluttered / Hideous. + Samus' head looks squashed

 

[CrisKre]

I like it enough. I just think it isnt consistent. The idea is good but the images seem just not to fit that well together, and in contrast the japanese b-art just does the opposite for me.

 

[Scrow]

hmmm... old one has a nintendo seal of quality, but the new one doesn't.... maybe Nintendo thinks MP2 isn't worthy? :O



j/k

 

[Spike]

Actually, I think the Nintendo Seal is usually on the back of the boxes now.

 

[Rahul]

What, no one's bothering to make a better one?

20 minutes in Photoshop rears this:

A little rough around the edges, and 72 dpi... but hell, at least it's better than the "official" art...

 

[Ramirez]

Samus is way too big in that photoshop,lol!

I like the Nintendo one...

 

[Trevelyon]

Kakusha's MP2:E boxart still rocks the house.

 

[Rahul]

Wow, funky shit. I bet that took more than 20 minutes :O

 

[Code_Link]

Woah, definitely looks more eye-catching.

The details added make it look better.

 

[Yusaku]

Meh, I don't really like any of the MP1 or 2 boxes, US or otherwise.

 

[Mason]

Someone give me a hi-res logo and some hi-res Metroid art and I'll make a badass one.


EDIT: My Killer 7 box art, since I love to whore it out in every box art related thread even though I never completed finished it.
