Why are they doing this? What is the point of making it red? Can't it just be white like all the other Wii games? I don't want New Super Mario Bros Wii to stand out from all my other Wii games. I am going to have a huge wall of white.. and then there is just going to be a red spine in the middle of it.. Why? I avoid players choice games for this reason. I hate yellow GC players choice games, I hate red PS2 and PS3 players choice games, and green players choice PS1 games. It throws off the entire thing. I know I am not going to be the only one disappointed with this news. So will many other collectors out there.

1. Games that have a unique look attract the eye from all the others which look the same and as a result, sell more.
2. The original Super Mario Bros in Japan came in a Red Box.
Also I don't know what you're all complaining about. No console or handheld I have ever owned has ever had all its games look the same. From the NES/SNES/N64 with the gold/black/green/red carts to the PSX/PS2 and their multiple different color and STYLE of boxes to the current gen, no console is ever going to have all its games look exactly the same on your shelf. If you want that, go buy an Atari...oh wait, even that doesn't look the same.
