Nebraska and the Nintendo 64 had a baby...


The New Nebraska Network Logo

The New Nebraska Network (NNN) needed a logo. So while cruising the Internet they found one that was too good to be true: three N's connected together in 3-D.

Unfortunately that "3 N" design is the trademarked property of Nintendo, a video game console manufacturer, and is the logo for their "Nintendo 64" video game system. (Don't believe me? Look at this Google Images search for "N64 logo")

Was this done to attract the N64 generation into politics? Or simply a way to make a cool logo out of something that fit their organization's name perfectly? Maybe it's a statement that politics are a game?

I'm certain it's not that deep.
The logo just jumped out at me and I had to share this.

Nebraska... brought to you today by the Nintendo 64. Get N or get out!
