Not every game needs an anime art style.
I agree that box art is terrible and will negatively impact sales though.

Ah that is pretty cool.
Would have been nice to just have the guy on it so you could really see the dots.
Interesting that it has a box art already. Is this supposed to be coming out this year?
I'm sure the game will be good, it's just fugly.

Really looking forward to this! Sounds great and I love Intelligent Systems!
Haha pretty much. Not for me, I guess.
Pretty much.

Friendly reminder that it's rare for 3DS games to look good outside of the 3DS itself

Seems like it has more going for it then an ugly artstyle ( I really don't know until I've seen it in motion )
Can't wait to play this.

Oh wow, I was totally ready to write this off as looking "focus group tested," but then I clicked the box art and looked at the large version. I recommend everyone does the same. It actually looks really good -- the art has Jack Kirby dots for that Silver Age flair!
This should be the version of the cover in the OP rather than just being linked to, it makes the cover look way better.

Same, I really like the look of the game at least art wise. Want to see gameplay footage to see how it looks in motion.
Right in the stream they said they were going for an american comic book artstyle, I guess people were just expecting a more anime/manga style based on the VC comparisons and past IS games?

It's Intelligent Systems. I will own this on release day.

Ya'll some cray fishes.
The art is great and unique compared to what else is out there.
The screens are rough, but that's ALWAYS the case with 3DS stuff (unless 2D).
This will look great, just wait for Treehouse Live tomorrow.

It's really unfortunate about the art style because if it was a Japanese style this would be an insta-purchase for me.
But they are targeting more mainstream audience who maybe don't like the anime style. They may succeed in getting people to pick it up who normally wouldn't touch a strategy RPG.

Art is fine. Excited as hell, can't wait to see it during the treehouse stream tomorrow.
This whole proposition is bizarre to me. I was expecting a game that "saves" 3DS from loosing momentum, either a core franchise like Metroid or a mass market game like a brand new 2D Mario. I don't understand what Nintendo wants to accomplish with this title.
Game itself: Interested in how it plays, dislike the artstyle. Cel shaded is a plus.

The art is probably going to be polarizing. Depends a lot on whether or not you like American comics.
See there you go.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
This is where I stand as well. I'm looking forward to a broader reveal tomorrow for further details.

I don't know, I like the art style yet at the same time I don't. Feels like it could use some work, but I don't know what that work would be. So long as the gameplay is solid (which it will be, no doubt), I'll pick it up.

Haha, you could say that for any 3DS game really.
Love the shading technique that's on the box art.
Well people were pissed it wasn't fucking Majora's mask remake. They wanted a REMAKE instead of a new game Nintendo is calling a franchise/next big thing? I liked Majora's Mask too but come on, fuck remakes! We have enough remakes coming out.
I say bring on the new IPs.
I don't think anyone is doubting Nintendo and Intelligent Systems' abilities to make a good game. That art style does not mesh well with the technical limitations of the 3DS.

Still reserving judgment until trailer.
I'll say that the game didn't sound that appealing to me in the first place.
Why is this the only new 3DS game anyway?
hopefully the trailer will change my mind, or maybe a demo when it comes out

sums it up nicely. With the pedigree of the developer, people are seriously getting ruffled because a goddamn 3DS game has an art style?
