No need to be a broken record like some other members...
Unboxing pics/vids?

Was too excited after my initial pic to do any more. I was a bit disappointed by the game case itself, if I remember later today I'll post pics of that. Let's just say that the picture on the box is a bit misleading.

LOL! I know that feeling :)
Bummer that it's not as cool as it would seem :/

It's still pretty awesome. If you guys are interested in the controllers/console you can see videos online...it's pretty sweet. They both glow blue instead of green and are transparent. The odd thing about the transparency though is that from even the slightest angle you can see the bright white light inside the controller.
Here's the only thing I didn't like, the big yellow label on the bottom of the cover:
Also, I'm not sure what the regular version comes with, but there was no manual or any inserts other than some redeemable codes. Instead, the inside of the cover is printed with the safety instructions (kind of tacky in my opinion).
All is good though, it looks pretty nice on my shelf. (Although you can see that they decided to center-justify the title on the spine unlike the other 3 games).

Regular version is the same. This is apparently the direction Microsoft is planning to go for all games.

More like the other 7 games. Wars, ODST, Reach, and Anniversary are also all either left (top?) aligned or have their text taking up the entire spine.

Here's a pic showing the condition of that Link's Crossbow Training's envelope:
The white and blue bits near the spine are just reflection. The white down Link's back and on the far left are where the sticker sealing it shut was apparently torn off.
MaSHoe:
Gamecube: $20
GBA SP AGS101: $7.50
Dynasty Warriors 6: $15 New
Tales of Vesperia: $16 New
Next pickup will be the Wii U, cant wait ;D

glad im not the only one mad about halo 4's lack of manual. Got the $99 limited or special edition.... and it has a collectors tin in the pack. no manual and the health warnings are on a separate card.

Yeah that's not a big deal for me, I was planning on putting it into a white DVD case anyways. I'm only looking to spend a few bucks.
