Does matter even design?
Super dope.
I think it's a neat evolution of their brand (and what I personally thought was an out-of-date logo previously).
As silly as the dynamic logos at the bottom were — pizza, Sydney Opera House, etc. — they did a great job having a unique illustration style that made the new logo come to life.
Practically, I think that you're right. Maybe it's a healthy mix of nostalgia and the N64 being where most of my favorite games lived
So stoked to hear about this partnership with Framer!
I was pretty surprised to find out that the UI doesn't scale based on TV/handheld mode. But Charlie makes a good point about how well they thought out the UI whether it's a 6" screen right up against your face vs. a 50" display ten feet away.
I worked internal reviews like this when I was at Sony (for the PlayStation) and it's exciting that people are starting to care more about game UI and console design in general. Definitely seems like Nintendo is paying attention.
Definitely! It's surprising how little talk there is of games and UX in general, let alone on the internet.
Asked this in the podcast but I'm curious what DN has to say: what's your favorite console controller?
I went with the obvious choice and said N64

I love record label design. This is like peeking into an alternate design universe
