In the latest trailer for Super Mario Maker, the game’s Japanese packaging was unveiled. What you see above is the “box” it will come in. And inside is the Super Mario Maker disc (with its own boxart) and artbook.
It’s basically a throwback to the boxart for the original Super Mario Bros. on Famicom! Pretty neat stuff.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
