Nintendo Revolution concept logos leak

They seem real enough, so here you go (of course, it's always a roll of the dice with all those talented fraudsters out there). The "R " for "Revolution" is big and cushy, like Mario, so you won't get any complaints here. It would be a great logo.

The second page is a bit of a head scratcher, though. It's a little too 8-bit to work, even though I like the simplicity.

Yes, it's soo much 8-bit era, but now there is this pixel vogue around with all this pixel artist doing isometric things..

Pixels are cool again ;)

I love the 8-bit logo. Besides, that's where all the fun is.

Cool logo. I liked it out of them all so far. Well, the ones that have been shown "leaked".

The check mark makes it official!

When has Nintendo ever name a console by its code name....its gotta be fake.

I doubt the machine will be called the "Revolution". Nice logo, though.

Er... DS? hum wasn't that its code name...

kool, looks like a frog to me

2Play: if I remember, Nintendo DS was a code name..

I'm a bit skeptical. The top one ("Big R") looks professional enough, but there's several problems. One is that Nintendo has rarely made the code name of a machine the final name. The DS is the only example I can think of. I guess that's pretty recent, but still, there's not a whole lot of precedent for it. Also, look at all of the unoriginal elements. I can buy that they might use the same typeface as the Gamecube and DS, although I bet they'll use a new one this time around (it is supposed to be a Revolution after all). But what's really telling to me is the bottom design. It's a frickin' Gamecube rip off. The R in the shape of the Gamecube logo? I mean, that's just silly. Supposedly this new system isn't even cube shaped.

And everyone thought the xbox360 logo was bad!

Nintendo Revolution "Type R"

the Gamecube logo and the N64 logos were both Cubes. it's not entirely impossible that Revolutions's logo is a cube too... but i like the other curvy "R" too. the way the logo shapes....if they are real, perhaps it has something to do with the shape of the controller? the console? it looks like the shape of some VR headsets to me~ > __ Reply

it's fake. it was made by a board member on IGN.com. (or so he claims)

Actually, the codename for the DS was the Nitro. So, they still have not ever named anything after its codename.

The "R" looks like legs -- a lower human torso in a seated position.

Nitro was the code name of Nintendo DS. This logo should be used on this E3 only... Later, Nintendo will tell us what's its real name.

No way is that real! Come on people, that 'R' is atrociously done (and no amount of photoshops bevel tool with make it look good...check out the top left corner of the beveled 'R' to see how badly this thing was put together). The pixilated one, although it appeals to my nostalgic side, is again too poor to be anything offical. 99.9% of these leaked images will be fake, always keep that in mind!

obviously fake. Nintendo wouldn't be releasing info moments info before e3. they kept everything under wraps for so long to just foil their own plan. Maybe if the Ps3 is announced tomorrow we might see something at the Nintendo Store grand Opening in New York but not before.

does look professional, they both do. but it does say at the top concept logos (3) and (9) maybe just pages 3 and 9 so where are the rest?!?!? could very well be real, but then again it could be just 2 pages of logos. i dig the font. and the 8 bit one, but then again all we have to wait is 1 day.

patience is huge in the gaming industry.....

LOL. The date at the bottom is my birthday :)

Tim Shundo,

No one gives a damn?

So just because no nintendo console has used its codename as its official name, that means that revolution wont? what kinda dumbass logic is that? nintendo didnt use the name "dolphin" for the gamecube, because... well, that sucked. Revolution is an awesome name, and i hope that will be the final name of the system. the concept logos look sweet.

Don't know if it's real or not,but if its real, I'll probably receive a Cease & Desist, tomorrow. :)

This is unlikely, for the simple reason that the console's name is probably not decided yet. Revolution is likely only a codename, much like "Ultra 64" or "Katana". For revolution to end up as the real name, the 3d projection hypothesis would also have to be true.

So'k. Nothing special. Could not be worse than the x360 logo (the money spent and the product developed is baffling). The 8-bit is cute but wouldnt wear well. And theres nothing wrong in using a 'leagacy' font from the GC and the DS. A 'revolution' (:P) can incorporate facets of the old.

"For revolution to end up as the real name, the 3d projection hypothesis would also have to be true."

um, no.

And somehow you believe these are real. -_-

I'm still stuck on that " Nintendo On" video.

I like the logo from the video better

I think a cool name would be the NFIVE as a gaming magazine reported in a concept pic they drew up. It is fitting considering it would be their fifth console (NES, SNES, N64, CUBE, NFIVE).

Nintendo 720- running laps around the competition.

just because they've never used a codename as their final name. doesn't mean they can't do that this time! look - they've included backward compatibility, it's the first time they did it in their console!!
i think the name "Revolution" rocks.

If they don't call it "Nintendo Revolution", then I hope they call it "N5", then they will have a basis for future console names and still be 2 numbers infront of Sony. Plus if they call it N5 they will be less embarassed if the system doesn't turn out to be as revolutionary as they initially hoped it would be.

These logos really suck. Kinda like Sony's expert craftsmanship or Microsoft's flawless programming.
