Doesn't look good for Mario Sports Mix........

You've heard the saying "don't judge a book by its' cover," right?
 
Ever heard of the term spoiler-free? You can't judge a book by its cover after all. Though it is odd that Solid Snake and Sonic both appeared on the box art for Brawl, despite being unlockables.
 
Maybe, but their playability had already been revealed ahead of time on the Super Smash Bros. Dojo, I believe.

They got enough hype as it is.

I'm not very interested in this game (or any other recent spin-off title) myself, but there's one thing about it that caught my attention: An online multiplayer mode.

...Online Multiplayer? If it truly has that then whatever the roster is it will be fun to play.

Besides, Mario Spin-Off character rosters don't matter that much. If a certain person or a favorite enemy is disincluded (Unless for some reason Nintendo disincludes a very popular character both major and minor) someone will complain for about a day or a week and then be done with it. Other game rosters like Fighting games matter more. But saying stuff like "flying koopa should of been in mario lacrosse" (Just using Lacrosse as a silly example) just doesn't matter that much

Well, they were heavily emphasized in the previews leading up to the game and were even in the game intro and instruction manual.

It's basically Nintendo saying, "Guys, look! We got third-party characters in this! THIRD-PARTY CHARACTERS!"
 
The cover looks pretty decent (the colours are a bit plain but it's still appealing-though Toad was cut off). The wifi logo definately guarantees something-perhaps we'll get a pretty good wifi mode in this game.
 
The box art looks pretty good, a bit bland though, a background would be nice.
