I'll take "Both Liars" for $600, Alex.
When I finally saw the doodle that comprised the last 21 "leak", I was shocked that anyone believed it. They stuck a bunch of 21s on a box! Seriously, if you have some artistic/design sense and you look at the logos for the GameCube and the N64, you can see they're made by a professional. There is beauty, elegance, and talent in their design. The 21 thing was clearly someone slapping a random number on a box to try to fool people.
But at least you could consider the possibility that they were doodles from a meeting at Nintendo or something! In this case we've supposedly got a promo leak, which tries to fool us by copying Nintendo's recent design choices. But the fonts are a dead giveaway. If you have an eye for this stuff, it's obvious. The "c" and "o" in "coming" are different widths and thicknesses, no professional would design a font like that. Also, "New Angle" is in a different font from the rest (see how the "a" in "angle" has a line across the bottom but the rest do not?) In fact, it looks like it's mixing the GameCube and DS fonts. Besides the fact that mixing fonts like that is a design no-no, why would Nintendo spend hundreds of dollars to have designers come up with a new font for every new system, and then suddenly cheap out and throw a bunch of the previous fonts together for the Revolution?
Edit: In summary, if my art or marketing department produced something like this, I'd fire them all. Don't believe this guy.
