With the release of Nintendo's new generation console looming close by, we've started receiving finalized copies of anticipated Wii games. Indeed, the final, retail version of Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz arrived on our desks today and with that in mind, we've gone ahead and snapped some photos of the box itself and the Wii disc inside. So without further ado...
Above: The front of the box. Notice that Wii cases are all-white, an exterior choice that blends well with the design of the console and controllers.
Above: The back of the box. Nintendo and partners have largely downplayed showing off too many screenshots of Wii games. This approach may mirror the philosophy that graphics are secondary to gameplay innovations.
Above: On the backside of Wii boxes, icons are displayed in the top-right corner that show both which controllers are used with the game and how many players each title supports.
Above: The insides of boxes do not feature slots for SD Cards, which is unfortunate. Meanwhile, the game discs themselves feature art and logos -- all with a blue hue.
