I remember they used a Fox render for the amiibo promo material we couldn't pinpoint either. I haven't seen it in a while, but I don't think that ended up being anything from Star Fox Zero.Maybe we can Beetlejuice Serebii in here. That's actually pretty fascinating if it's an all new render. We haven't got one since Smash, and Pokemon has kind of been the black sheep recently, especially with amiibo.
I'd go tinfoil had mode and say its for a new game, but it could just be that they wanted a new one for promo stuff. And it's definitely not the Pokken one which would ideally be the best one to use. (although that Pikachu has the Kirby angry face so)

Here in the UK the Nintendo sections have been relegated to a shelf in the corner.
This is a new marketing initiative for Nintendo. Its hitting all across retail.
New coloring is red instead of blue and labeled simply Nintendo instead of Wii U / 3DS
Make of that what you will
"New Nintendo Console" and "New Nintendo Handheld" probably would have been better names than the Wii U and 3DS, actually.Where can I buy this "Nintendo"?!
Right?! This is so exciting, if only because it harkens back to the GameCube era of Nintendo, which is my favorite.Going back to the red logo (assuming they are) is quite a big deal. They had big reasons for changing it to grey in the first place, that being doubling down hard on the broad, lifestyle-y image they'd started to cultivate during the DS Lite/Wii era. Going back to the impactful and iconic red after spending 7 years flirting with the style-conscious, Apple-esque grey is a potentially significant indicator as to where they're going as a company.
Also it can't be stressed enough how effective it is having a company mascot the same colour as your logo.
Here I walked into a GameStop and took a picture for you guys since no one wanted to. This is what Nintendos new branding looks like
Pikachu looks a little chubbier than usual in this render.
I don't want to read too much into this because it likely doesn't mean anything, but I would love if they went back to red. Not necessarily the logo - the logo is fine, but it looks amazing with a red background like that.Going back to the red logo (assuming they are) is quite a big deal.

Wow, that's definitely a new render. Twilight Princes Link promo art in HD. Exciting stuff!
woah holy crapFound a new one

It's alright Zhuge, everyone makes mistakes sometimes... even if its the entire UK retail arm.
I'm guessing the next console will have Nintendo in the name.
In the name name I mean.
i. e. something like Nintendo U.

What intrigues me is the red theme, not the logo itself. It looks really good this way.Rösti;179841043 said:I tried giving NoA a call about this alleged red logo, but I just got directed to customer service which of course couldn't help.
I greatly doubt they will be changing back to red for the logo however. Gray is much easier to work with, internally and externally.

Ah, maybe it is for TP HD. Would be a bit random for it to drop out of nowhere, but might make more sense than Zelda U art.Wow, that's definitely a new render. Twilight Princes Link promo art in HD. Exciting stuff!
All their consoles have Nintendo at the front haha.

WWHD promotional art was randomly shown in some experience show

How can you specifically tell it's TP link?
As opposed to like Ocarina of Time? If we could see if he had chainmail or not, we'd know.
Unless you just meant TP Link as in "Not Skyward Sword or Toon"
I found the gesture of Link on the sign to be really similar to this promo art of Link in TP:

I didn't mean the typography of the logo, I meant the text which says "New Games", "New Release" and "Accessories". Should have clarified that.I don't want Nintendo to change their logo's typeset. It'd be AWFUL.

oh ok. I was talking more about his clothes than the pose.
But...if he's not holding the sword, what's he holding?
Fire Rod confirmed Zelda UNX
Thats neither TP or SS Link it looks like a mixture of both of them. Damn, he looks good there...
And it doesn't say Mario or anything lol. It's actually the opposite of Mario's cap (white text on red), when it was closer to Mario before lolThe site I got it from says its for Mario's anniversary which wouldn't make too much sense since both Link and Pikachu are included
Better resolution pic
Make it happen Nintendo, leave the baggage behind, rising like a phoenix from the ashes
Thats not twilight princess link though! We must dig deeper!Found a new one

It's over. The console wars have been decided. The Big N is back
