Random: The world’s first ‘NFT console’ has a logo that looks very familiar

It’s happening, all right. Polium, a Web 3 company (Web 3 is an idea for a new version of the Internet that we know today, with a form distributed in the blockchain) has unveiled the very first NFT video game console this weekend.

Called Polium One, this little black box is meant to be “a multi-chain console for Web 3 games” and will have both existing and exclusive games on the system when it launches sometime in 2024. And although the console has received some criticism Online has Some of you eagle-eyed Twitter users have seen some similarities between the Polium logo and a certain Nintendo console’s own.

Just take a closer look at the box or the middle button on the controller in the tweet below. Turn it around a bit. Add a line. Do you see that?

Maybe “do you hear that?” may be a better question, if you are familiar with GameCube’s boot sound, that is. If you turn Polium’s logo around and draw a line in the middle – take it! And it did not take long before people began to rip into the company for the similarities.

@OddOttAllen has even carried out our instructions and shown how the logo can potentially be ‘inspired’ by GameCube’s iconic box-G.

Earlier today, Polium responded to allegations that the company had “copied” the GameCube logo, outlined plans for the blockchain console on social media, and stated that the “P” shape was for Polium and the cube in the middle represents the sale of the console. point – NFTs and blockchain.

Even though Polium has said they want to change their logo and come up with something original, do you think people stopped teasing the company online? Of course not. Sometimes we can rely on Twitter for a good afternoon laugh, especially a Nintendo-related one.

GameCube is not the only logo that Polium’s logo has been compared to. Minecraft fans have also been quick to point out that Polium One’s little ‘P’ is more than a little reminiscent of PebbleHost’s own, a well-known reputable server hosting service used for Minecraft.

Or maybe Polium is just a big fan of the British publisher PQube, which has helped bring games like New Super Lucky’s Tale and Cat Quest to Switch, and publishes the upcoming Potion Permit.

It’s a fairly popular logo shape, but even if it’s a coincidence, it’s hard not to notice the similarities with these designs, especially GameCubes, which has long cemented itself as a legendary video game console logo.

We have to see what the new logo of Polium One will look like.
