GameCube Packaging?

Taken from the Gaming-Age forums. What do you guys think? Not as sleek and cool as the PS2 box; but it will get the job done. :D

Give them time. There are more secrets to be revealed at SpaceWorld. There are some rumors of a handle for the gamecube handle. Lets cross our fingers.

Somethings not right with that box!!!

WTF!?!

Isn\'t the cube...well.. a CUBE? Isn\'t it like 8 inches squared?

Look at the black side of the box. Now is the cube has equal dimensions on all sides, that would mean that the depth of the black portion of the box is equal to, or slightly larger than the depth/length/height of the cube (8")

That said. That means that the rest of the box (height, and length) is Waaaaay outa wack (proportion).

You could fit like FOUR FREAKING CUBES IN THAT BOX!!! Seeing as the box is a rectangle you would have to go by the smallest dimension (the black side) and figure from there.

Well they have to put in the controller and the cords too.  That still doesn\'t justify the box\'s shape, but that\'s the only thing I can think of.

It looks like a Sega Saturn box with a GameCube on it.
