Hm.
Somebody "confirmed" the last set of pictures to me. I didn't believe or disbelieve, I just figured I'd wait for more information.
This might qualify as more information.
Alright, the posts now slowly fade from funny overreacting to the annoying as fuck "Nintendo 3rd party"-posts.
Could this shit become bannable, please? Thread is on direct way to sh*thole because of this.
But how long is this shit's battery life?
Swedish/Finnish
Reddit name is perkele37 which is in Finnish but I'd expect many swedes to know what that means
Agree.. But 110 Million fast is really good for a company.They were right.
The Wii Remote has never been the standard control of a platform outside the Wii.
It came fast and went away as fast.
Welcome to gaf lol.
The controller for the console? Wtf? No face button? WTF?
the console is the controller or is there a console unit that this controller is attached to?
So confused, Nintendo has no choice but to reveal it now and avoid further confusion.
You know what? I'm in. You wanna get nuts Nintendo? Lets get fuckin' nuts! Consoles are so stagnant, lets do some crazy shit. I don't care if it fails. Lets see something new for a change.
Look at the reflection in the first image, then look at Massive's HQ in Sweden
Same tree
Same fucking tree man
Shit
Ho would you get the games on that thing? Will it be fully digital then?
I'm fairly certain Iwata said that this is not going to be a hybrid...
This is exactly what I'm thinking. You can either place it in a shell with handles or use it without one.
That said.....I'm not liking the way this is looking
Look kinda like a Vita
Do you understand what haptic feed back is? Because it can theoretically solve all the problems associated with traditional digital buttons, and is stated to be a part of this controllerBecause using a smart phone app is different from controlling traditional video games.
There is a reason why touch screens have not replace keyboards on laptops and desktop PCs. You don't want to write a book on a virtual keyboard. You probably don't want to play Call of Duty on virtual buttons.
As others have pointed out, the biggest issue is the impossibility to blindly know where the buttons are. This would be a smaller issue if the photo shows the handheld, since in this case your eyes would be on the screen the entire time. If the image shows the home console controlleror a handheld that also works as a home console controllerthen the problem of using it blindly would be a problem. The analog sticks might server as a haptic reference point, but I am skeptical.
I am open to this thing. As a handheld it probably makes sense. But I remain skeptical if the home console will use the same concept. I never liked how the GamePad on the Wii U forced you to change your focus between TV and the controller in your lap all the time. This thingagain, if it is a controller for the home console, and not a handheldlooks like it would make that issue even worse.
I genuinely don't understand how any of that is an improvement over regular buttons, which don't require you to cover the screen with your hands to use.
Buttons are great.
But how long is this shit's battery life?
I agree, as someone whk was pleasently suprised with the game pad, i kinda like this

"Confidential Property"
It just screams fake.

Welcome to Neogaf... Also check the wiimote reactiion thread.. This is a good sign. Trust me.
We should refer to the "casual market" as the "Grandma/tablet gamer crowd" from now on

I said this in the other thread, but I expect the sticks to be detachable.
Nintendo owns a patent for changeable controls in a handheld device.
They could easily let you replace the right stick with physical buttons or the left stick with a d-pad.
People are making a mountain out of a molehill....again.
