Support NeoGAF

[BoboBrazil]

Black one still looks real. I'm thinking it's real and this guy is just trying to cover his ass.

 

[L Thammy]

The faker is a NeoGAF member judging by the dark theme.

Reveal yourself!

It's probably Nibel trying to up his thread views
I'm on to you, you beautiful bastard

 

[HandsomeCharles]

So what about the other photos? They (being a lot clearer) looked like an actual physical object. Just a really good render?

 

[Sylverstone14]

The memes will never die.

 

[The Sum of Zero]

Which one of you lads & ladies' did it then?

Such a lust for trolling.

WHOOOOOOOOOO?!

 

[mario_O]

So they made the black ones too?

He didnt show the console in the video. Could be that this guy is a fake faker, and the console is still real.

 

[Fourth Storm]

Well done. Still, with all the different sources saying this lines up, something smells fishy. I wonder if ninjas aren't at work here. Don't underestimate the litigation powers at Nintendo. Maybe I'm still in denial. Reveal can't come soon enough.

 

[Ricky_R]

Hahahah what a marvellous turn of events. How can we explain the recent ones though?

 

[Ad0ve]

Weren't people on the other thread already blaming specific devs? lmao

 

[FZZ]

Yo BY2K hook me up with a young tribute link to my thread in the OP

Shit was made first but the oligarchy held me down fam

 

[Acquiescence]

Hat eating ratio maintained.

You're seething with rage right now. I can feel the heat emanating from here.

Reveal yourself!

What if it's Rösti?

 

[Kyolux]

Was on #teamFake... but was hoping it was real, because of how bad it looked.

Would have meant one less console under the TV and less money spent.

 

[cartographer]

Weren't people on the other thread already blaming specific devs? lmao

But you see, there was a tree...

 

[sixteen-bit]

What a rollercoaster

 

[slapnuts]

Called it

I thought it was plausible for more then a day, but the more I looked at it the more I was like "...I could make that"

for more than a day? geez...even that was too much wasted thought in this, I never believed it for a second. I suppose it's easier to be duped on places like this simply because some folks make a big spiel out of rumors and stuff but the truth is...this is simply another lesson learned for those that were duped into believing this was the real deal. I was shocked by the folks that were actually liking it though, ha!..i suppose that's part of the inner fanboy inside some folks, to root and support their brand of choice which is asinine imho Hopefully some people will slow down and not be so hasty into reacting over things like this. It's so damn easy to dupe people on the internet yet people fall for it every day. Like that old saying goes, there's a sucker born every minute.

 

[jony_m]

How many here more than believing it was real, just kinda wanted it to be real just to witness the meltdowns

I can't be the only one

 

[Danchi]

So they made the black ones too?

Copycat killer.

 

[L Thammy]

watch the real NX controller turn out to be nearly identical but more of a rounded rectangle

The real NX has no buttons because it's entirely voice-controlled. You'll have to perform precision platforming by screaming at Donkey Kong.

 

[Instro]

This begs the question though, were the no buttons rumors still legit. We had a couple sources saying it.

 

[fauxtrot]

How hard would it have been for someone to 3D print that other leaked controller (the black one)? The screen would have been super difficult to do and have it look as legit as it does in those pics.

 

[Zarovitch]

SO... the first one is false but the second one is real?

 

[Kouriozan]

It's probably Nibel trying to up his thread views
I'm on to you, you beautiful bastard

He does have some photoshopping skills, hmmm...

Spoiler

Obviously joking

 

[Peltz]

Reveal yourself!

Good catch!

Unless his dark theme screen scrolling was also faked?!?!?!

FAKE-CEPTION

No but seriously, we won't be mad if you reveal yourself! That was the greatest fake EVER!

 

[javac]

...

Your avatar is just too perfect XD

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Has #TeamReal ever been right? Ever?

 

[MogCakes]

Not difficult at all. One mold with an acrylic or plastic cutout placed on top.

 

[User1608]

Not even mad

 

[test_account]

 

[KingSnake]

Good catch!

FAKE-CEPTION

The leaker was hacked by a GAF-er who made the video to make him look like a faker.

Spoiler

/jk

 

[Head.spawn]

Thank god that was fake, it looked completely silly.

 

[Peltz]

This begs the question though, were the no buttons rumors still legit. We had a couple sources saying it.

No. NX will have buttons. Mark my words. Make me eat crow if I'm wrong.

Nintendo is not abandoning buttons. I guarantee it.

 

[LegendofLex]

Has #TeamReal ever been right? Ever?

There have been tons of legitimate Nintendo leaks in the last 18 months.

Smash Bros. ESRB roster leaks
Paper Mario Color Splash
Trev/SuperMetalDave's source on the 3DS lineup
Most recent Nintendo Direct contents
SNES games on n3DS VC (which I believe was also rumored independent of the Nintendo Direct leak)

 

[Aaronrules380]

Screen is most likely not hard at all if it doesn't need to actually work. And that leak only had a black screen

 

[imBask]

the video is fake, HAVE YOU SEEN THE TREES?

 

[Cert.in.Death]

GAF, shame on you for lying to me.

To Nintendo: ...we're sorry

 

[BGBW]

Has #TeamReal ever been right? Ever?

Smash Bros ESRB leaks.

 

[Crayolan]

Has #TeamReal ever been right? Ever?

The smash bros ESRB leak was real.

I'm sure there are, but whenever #TeamReal is involved, we lose. Quiet is still Chico to me, dammit!

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Back to square one.

HAHAHAHAHA

 

[trixx]

What a nerd.

. hahaha, the exact reply i had in mind

 

[mario_O]

Not difficult at all. One mold with an acrylic or plastic cutout placed on top.

Ok, but why not show it in the video? It's the most impressive part of this elaborate fake. #teamreal.

 

[Aaronrules380]

Also, this should've been incredibly obvious the moment a treehouse employee retweeted it. Treehouse must've been laughing there ass off about us arguing over a fake rumor

 

[Xiao Hu]

I knew it!

Yep, we're now at this point where a "fake" made actual sources come forward and vouch for certain details concerning it.

Someone in the other thread pointed out that the screen looked ridiculously reflective, which is consistent with someone using a CNC cutter with black acrylic.

That or it's an even higher quality digital fake.

 

[Fox318]

The workers of neogaf got worked into a work When they thought it was a shoot.

#ThisRollerCoasterDoesntStopForAnyone

My only fear

 

[Ashodin]

OK I believe this one was faked, but what about the black versions?

I'M ON #TEAM ANSWERS GODDAMMIT
