==''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' Japanese boxart==
==A Link Between Worlds Artwork==
<div style="font-size:120%; font-weight:bold;">
This is an absolutely beautiful piece of artwork from the upcoming A Link Between Worlds. With it's vivid colors and peaceful, yet dramatic, depiction of [[Hyrule Castle]] I think that it's definitely feature worthy. {{:User:Mandi2517@legacy41958928/sig}} 05:40, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

[[File:TWW JP Box.jpg|thumb|right|''Wind Waker'' boxart]]
This image really shows the high quality of Nintendo's Japanese video game boxart. This boxart is much more detailed than the American and European boxarts, and includes iridescent foil for a colorful effect. The newsprint-like effect on Link is pretty nice.

#Once again we get the short end of the stick. The box art here is stunning and is, (in my opinion) better than the North Amarican box art. --[[User:Shyla12323|Shyla12323]] 15:30 17 December 2012 (EST)

#It's kind of interesting looking, I suppose, but I can't say I'm really happy with the idea of prominently showing high-resolution product images like this (since it's something other wikis specifically tend to steer away from for legal reasons). Aside from that vague concern, we already have quite a few WW images featured, two of which have Link and KoRL as their subject matter, so I don't really feel it helps the overall diversity. {{:User:Adam/sig}} 03:05, 29 February 2012 (EST)

#The picture itself is okay, but the brand name and text detracts from the picture. It would look less cluttered if the text wasn't there,but the image itself is also messy. {{:User:Darkness/sig}} 19:03, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

[[File:Link resting.jpg|thumb|right|181px|Official artwork from the remake of ''A Link to the Past'']]
A high quality image of Link taking a break under a tree. It has great, vibrant colors and, even though it could do without the logo at the top, that doesn't take away from this not ''too'' well-known artwork from the ''A Link to the Past'' remake. --[[User:Dany36|Dany36]] 17:53, 12 July 2012 (EDT)

[[File:Zelda-Art-Medium.png|thumb|right|Official artwork of Zelda and her Loftwing from {{SS}}]]
I really like this image for multiple reasons: for starters, it's incredibly high quality and is a very nice piece of artwork. Another main reason is that this is one picture of Zelda which shows her to be "just another person." She's always been royalty and had great importance, and as such she's always carried an air of elegance. Here, Zelda does not know she's the Goddess reborn, and is therefore...well, humanized. It's a great image of Zelda, and I think it could definitely be a great image to feature.{{:User:Justin/sig}} 21:29, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

#Amazing quality. Beautiful colors. Great artwork. This artwork has every reason to feature it, and no reasons not to. My vote goes with this image, definitely. And did I mention it's a large image which preserves quality as it's magnified? You can really see the detail. {{:User:Darkness/sig}} 21:42, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
