No need to be pessimistic, there's more proof here. I'm completely convinced now.

(I have no idea who made this)
Still Frame photo compared to elaborate video. Seems legit.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

it's a beta for a reason. it's not complete

Okay? You quoted me why?

I like how the idiot who did though, compares a Photoshop mock to a video. It's not as easy as one thinks.

Reminds me of when I made this piece of fuck junk

i bet the switch will get massive content the moment we get paid multiplayer!

VC of wii, gameboy etc.. will launch all at the same time, this 5.0 leak will be there, and even more. this will cause the earth to implode due to overload of the ninty fanboys


tho i really think this is the real deal!

We're talking about an INSANE waste of time for anyone faking this. Like actually spending weeks REWRITING the entire UI.
Or just a couple of days animating it in after effects. The switch UI is fairly simple tbh. Still a waste of time, but this leak seems to have garnered attention, so it can't be that wasted on the creator's part. He soaks up all of that attention.

But it's not possible to rewrite the UI yet. If it's fake they recreated the exact movements the menu icons and fades within the UI. It's entirely possible, we've seen it with a Smash 4 leak as well.
Can you even begin to fathom the difference in faking the two things through VFX?
And what do you mean "its not possible to rewrite the UI" lol? I'm saying that if it is a fake, they not done as with that Smash 4 fake, but actually rewritten a custom identical menu as their own app.

Bullshit. Devs put all kinds of placeholders all the time. This footage isn't meant for anyone elses eyes. They aren't gonna grab a bunch of shitty stock icons of like play buttons and film clappers haha

You know what's weird? Some fucker left a picture of the Besian school hostage crisis in Mario Kart Arcade GP. Now that's a weird placeholder..
I think you took my comment out of context completely.

But, recent images have shown and proved that this leak is completely fake.

Okay so here is my 3cents. I think this is real we have heard about cloud usage on the system in terms of games before which have been confirmed I.e. Sega’s phantasy star game using it to keep data low. So judging by this I’d have to say this is very highly likely.

yeah you just read what i posted n rewrote it i your own words
