Japanese Dark Echoes cover is far better than our Echoes cover. But the American Prime cover is still better than the Jap one.

I can see polygons. It's bad that I can see polygons in the box art. That means they were totally lazy and just rendered the in-game model at some nifty angle and pasted it on some background.
Don't ever use in-game graphics as cover art. Ever.
Also, they should REALLY stress the melting reflection more. Only one comment on it in this thread and it took me a long time to see it, myself. I was wondering why her "reflection" shadow thing looked off... then I realized it's melting. But it's doing so in a very subtle way, so it kinda loses any potential effect it might've had.
Not to mention the composition is very unesthetic. I can only assume a non-artist designed it. I sure hope it's not final...

Almost happy
I don't think the general idea of this cover is that bad, but it's badly done. First why use ingame models on the cover? Yay jagged edges... not. Omg they did not have the srewattack loggo on the cover WTF. And of course the question we all want an answer to. What the fuck is dark samus doing in the top left corner?!? I mean seriously that just looks like a bad joke. Now I'm praying that they will do a better cover to the PAL release...
For what I would assume is a pre-rendered picture, that has a looooow poly count. :| I mean, I prefer the first Smash Brothers' graphics over the second, but even I am abashed at how easily I can count the polygons in that box art...
Agreed; I got mine broken off EBay, but even if I can't play it I can look at Samus' pose, and then I am pleased.

Yeah, it's not exactly the best box I've ever seen (to put it nicely), but then again, Prime and Echoes aren't the greatest boxes either.
That honor goes to Metroid II.

I really dont think that's final (or maybe even real) after looking at it a little more- Wouldnt box art shown this early (several months ahead) still have the NR ESRB logo? The rating on the box is usually made pretty close to when the game goes into produciton, doesn't it? Previews and such are rated seperately?
my umbrella goes directly to Bankai
ohshi i just noticed the lack of Screw Attack logo.
the name looks worse now that i look at it more closely.
hope they fix this.
i bet that the JP mp3 box will be the coolest box ever (at the cost of SBs hah)
edit: btw, doesn't anyone miss the way the suit's legs looked in mp1? they were downgraded in mp2 imo and this game seems to use the same kind of model.
