    KoopaDasher's box is nice, but I think it's choppy in places, and the Animal Crossing logo seems too small. I prefer the unique colors of Timmeh's box, and I love the organisation.

    I vote for Timmeh.

    I Vote for Timmeh, because i like the overall composition. Feels just like the official box for a PS2 RPG. However the spine looks kinda flat and its not so good to use the same are twice on one box.

    Koopa's box is great too, the front is so good. But the back looks kinda crowded and spoils the whole compostion.

    Though i noticed a flaw in the gradation on the front, Koopa's boxart is visually appealing and both the front and back are both well designed.

    Timmeh's front looks great, though i would've had the dog's face over the logo. I'm not too crazy about having the huge text running down the center on the back cover. Maybe having the text contour the character could have improved the overall look.

    Tough call. Both boxarts look really nice.

    My vote is for Koopa.

    oh gosh, this is probably the toughest decision ever in a competition....

    koopadasher's is very colorful, brilliant and cute. there was most likely lots of effort put into it. its just so pretty.

    but then there's timmeh's, which is like... super cool. there was also lots of effort i'm sure, and the box flows with a distinct style. i mean i think it would've been better if the summary was moved to the right a little, to fill up the space and not cover the character, but that's just me...

    overall, they're both great, but in the end i feel timmeh's looks more official.

    Timmeh.

    Tell me about it...
    Koopa and Timmeh's are very cool. I think Koopa's box represents Animal Crossing very well, and I like the seasons theme. It also seems official with the NP guide tag and the Get Connected section. Timmeh's has a really cool front, but the back seems lacking. In the end, I have to go with
    KoopaDasher.

    P.S.: Whats that controller logo on Koopa's box? Is that a GC controller logo?

    I vote for Timmeh. The front and back are very well organized. I love the style. It sticks with the color scheme as well. So does Koopa's, but his is too colorful. Sometimes, too much color kills it. Timmeh, I can tell had alot more effort put into it. Sorry KoopaDasher. Your's is good too! So there you go. My vote goes to Timmeh

    Based on quality, koopadasher's box is all high quality images and is pulled off nicely. timmeh's does look nice overall but the quality of the images make the box suffer a little.

    I vote for KoopaDasher

    Yes. It's a GCN controller. It's meant to show that the game is compatible with a GCN controller, just as the DS logo beside it shows that the game is compatible with DS connectivity.

    I thought so, it just didn't look much like a GC controller. It almost looked too...wide.
