That sucks, but it was for a good cause.

But every other button is labeled!
Maybe its the button that activates the toast function?

DAMN! Dude's gonna be out of a job.
Or the coffeemaker, since Nintendo wants the experience of gaming with this system to people like people playing in a cafe together?

Fuck, That makes alot of sense actaully. The leaked rayman vid lead me to believe it may actually be under the screen or something.

Why do people assume this guy will get fired???
Maybe Nintendo okayed it.

I'm shocked that he thought it would be a good idea to post that. Nintendo has basically kept everything about the system, and even its games, on lockdown since E3. Now some random QA tester leaks the changes to the controller.

That still used the old controller wich may even didn't have nfc at that point.

I doubt he'll get fired, but there is no way this was cleared through Nintendo.
Yes, but it's probably not going to be the case for some of the labeling.
no logo at all, actually
That's probably what that one poster was talking about. Wonder what it is.

Hopefully the dude won't be fired. Celebrities leak stuff they are doing voice work for all the time, it would be a shitty double standard if the punishment for this was more serious than internal discipline of some sort

Well, USUALLY people don't make blatant posts about something like this as they know consequences.
Plus, this is no Megaton on the surprise level, we already had an idea about it nor will this wow anyone at a reveal.
It's still cool news though.

I rehosted it here: http://www.freeimagehosting.net/xb7f8
Well, if it were a developer or publisher then I would say they got the ok from Nintendo. Since he's just a QA tester, I doubt it.

I think it's just for the dev units. Maybe the guy works for a developer that just ordered a dev kit and it said Wii U, and that is the reason the poster thought Wii U was the final name.
Too many pages to catch up. Other than the depressing rumour of a Starfox-Metroid fusion game, has there been anything else's since yesterday when Paul mentioned he'd post the story?
I really hope Retro isnt working on this SF/M title. Starfox is a cute distraction of a game Retro spending their time on it would be such a waste IMO.

With the current set up, I don't think gc style triggers would make sense. Seems to be suited for x360 style triggers, which I prefer anyway.

Surely one or two of our leakers knew about the sticks on this newer design. See what happens if you withhold info, guys? Someone else makes the reveal first!

BG basically says that rumor is fake and that it's likely a new IP. Oh, and the new controller pictures.

Yeah, I had no idea who this guy was/is.

Should we have a moment of silence for this poor man?
I wonder if he even saw the ninja blade coming

I was going to say something, but Ace is still using that board streaming feature so he can respond much faster than me.
Ace did one minute after it was posted, haha.

Like... 5 seconds after Penguin found it.

IGN readers do NOT reflect the mass market.
Sure. They are more interested in Last of Us than Halo 4. I am too.
But Halo 4 is going to outsell Last of Us no matter what.
The actual mass market (you know, the one where the money is to be made) will ultimately decide how well Wii U or any next gen platform does.
And we will not know who "won" E3 until its over. These readership polls just reflect a general readership opinion, nothing more.

Is the bottom green? The ports on the bottom look a little green or is that a reflection?
Could be. He rarely posts on gaf, so I'd like to think he has some exposure to the devkits.

I get a kick out of that thread being a "rumor".
It kind of looks like fact to me but of course, technicalities.

Yeah. That's my reasoning for your fast responses.
Nope. Just fast computer and connection and sever ADD.
Just covering my ass, because it's the internet and you never know.
The controller leaked?

Dr tre has a YouTube channel now I think it may be the same person he's one of the major nintendo supporters.

Yeah this is about as far as you can get from an actual rumour like the bullshit Metroid vs Starfox thing as it is possible to get without official confirmation!
