Shiren the Wanderer 3 picks up a Scroll of Awesome Boxart


Mysterious Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer 3 is a total surprise. The graphics look great, the trailer is classy, and now this boxart is just beautiful. We had no idea Sega was putting this much money into a dungeon-crawling RPG, and, in fact, we're a little shocked that they would want to. The budget for this must be enough to fund four or five Sonic Riders sequels. Is the Japanese audience for roguelikes really that large?

We're suckers for great boxart, which the Wii is sorely lacking. It's not the only consideration for game quality, but we bet more boxart like this would at least draw curiosity from shoppers. And it's certainly nice to look at for free on the Internet!
