they're probably trying to introduce 90s nick stuff to a new generation. probably because every person who grew up in the 90s has some sort of fondness for nick during that era

still neat tho

Bump.

In a shocking twist, Idriss2Dev, the original white NX controller leaker, has revealed that it was a fake all along.

This basically confirms that the black controller is fake as well.

where are the buttons

I think the whole "no physical buttons" thing is kinda dumb.

Games / RUMOR: Nintendo "NX" controller leaked (FAKE AF)

« on: March 23, 2016, 03:13:04 PM »

NOTE: This "leak" was confirmed to be a hoax. Below is the original post in its entirety.

Over the past couple of days some interesting information has popped up relating to the controller for Nintendo's soon-to-be-announced console, codenamed "NX."

It began when the blog Dual Pixels received an image from Idriss2Dev on reddit supposedly depicting the NX controller.

The image above was rotated 90 degrees right from the original, which can be viewed here.

As you can see, it is an oval-shaped controller with two white thumbsticks. Note the lack of physical buttons.
This closely matches a patent filed by Nintendo in June 2015.

It was later discovered that the image on the screen is a still from an Unreal Engine 4 demo. This led some to believe that the image is faked.

NeoGAF post showing proof

Now, today, new images were posted to reddit by user perkele37. They seem to depict the same controller as above, with the screen turned off and in a black colour.

- Only the upper 'nubs' of the sticks move. The bottom part is static (kind of like the circle pad, but it moves along the bottom 'sphere'.
- The rollers on the top feel and look pretty much identical to a mouse scroll-wheel. Though I do don't believe this will be the final design.
- Haptic feedback is feels like Apples 'taptic' engine. Not like regular rumble.
- 3.5mm headphone jack on the bottom

To clarify, this is the controller unit for the console.
Dev-kit, so it's not the final design, obviously.

/discuss. I'll start by giving my opinion: it looks... alright, I guess?

I also should probably mention that this is a rumor and is in no way official.
