OMG! That's running on a Panasonic TV! (one of Nintendo's partners in the development of Rev).

Actually, to me that bar in the upper right hand corner seems to be a controller. It says the number 1 right next to it, and is colored blue. See the crosshair, its blue as well. Maybe for each different player it adds another bar on the right with a different colored bar and crosshair

It looks like this is the next trend. First we had console mock-ups, then controller mock-ups, and now how the Virtual Console/Revolution menu system looks like. Fake or not, sooner or later, someone's probably going to get pretty close to how the interface for Nintendo's next system actually looks like.

I say it's not legit from the HDTV used as the display properties icon...they say they aren't out to support HD, so why show an HDTV type setup? Hmpf.

And the General Settings using a gear like that, no way would Nintendo use an icon like that, I just don't see it.

And lastly, where's the little icon telling you how to go BACK to the main screen? If this is a sub-menu for settings, there should be a way back in the menu structure.

I just plain do not buy it for a second.

god I can't wait to be playing my Rev on my 2405FPW monitor, with VGA of course. I'd like DVI but VGA is a definite.

yea. Image is fake. but oh well. goes to show how crappy design skills 99% of people have. going back to the DS mockups, not ONE looked good. sure they may know how to use applications to their maximum potential, sure they may spend time making sure the intricate details are bang on perfect, but they have NO skill in media design. It's wonderfully sad.

if you just point and click at the menu items with the wand, how come they're all crammed into the middle of the screen? wouldnt it be easier to spread the options around the screen with bigger buttons? looks like a GUI with a d-pad in mind.

Tell you what, have any of you ever come across leaked info from Nintendo that has turned out to be true? I don't think I have ever seen anything come from Nintendo that they themselves weren't the first to unveil.

Definitely fake. The "Settings" word is duplicated all over the screen making it quite verbose when compared to the original GC config screen. That thing is supposed to work across regions without localisation... Oh, and if it is a beta, then the menu should be displayed in Japanese, not in English.

Nintendo isnt going to start following Google's trend of "leaks" of urls or pictures.

It seems to me also that Nintendo is fond of using color for building up their brand equity. After showing off the clean white "ipodish" look of the revolution controller why would they drop that look in the interface after it's gained strong user recognizability? The curtains don't match the drapes.

I also agree with Erick about the horrid use of that gear for "General Settings." As far as icons go, it's hard to reconize means little to nothing for it's user. It seems to me that if Nintendo was going to come up with icons for a GUI interface they would look a little more user friendly and resemble the Wi-Fi logo on the bottom. The one that sticks out like a sore thumb from the rest of this fake.

Fake (I hope), because it is not a creative one.
This is just a hodge-podge of beginner Photoshop techniques. The light blue tenticle's are a basic vector technique. The blur behind the word "Settings" is just a motion blur. Finally you can see part of the mouse pointer arrow on the far right of the screen, right smack dab in the middle.

I'm sure it's fake, but I actually think it's kind of cool looking, bright and colorful. Much better than those pictures from that survey thing from a few days ago. Man, that was ugly.
