I’m starting to feel more like myself this week. I’m catching up on my sleep, which has to be the reason why I’m feeling better. Time for me to keep the routine going, which means I’m off to bed! See you all in a few, short hours. I post a lot of boxart here on GoNintendo. For those of you that have been with the site for a long time, you know why I post boxart. For those that are new, I’ll quickly explain! I think boxart is a hugely important part of the video game business, but unfortunately, it’s an aspect that a lot of companies seem to ignore. Just think about all the missed sales opportunities that are the result of ugly boxart. I know that when I was younger, I would ignore games that had crappy boxart. I’ve become a bit smarter since then (just a bit), but there are still millions of consumers that won’t touch a game if the boxart isn’t appealing. Boxart in and of itself has the power to be extremely appealing in a number of ways. I have some game boxes that I feel deserve to be framed and sitting on my walls. Some of this stuff is truly breath-taking, but the boxart in the video below is the exact opposite. Seriously, check out this video and picture a younger version of yourself walking into GameStop. With a few exceptions, would the covers shown below interest you, or turn you away? Video Games | 100 Ugly Boxshots XBox 360 | Playstation 3 | Nintendo Wii
