How a Gaffer and his 3D printer trolled the world (2nd NX fake)

I thought this deserved its own thread simply because of the effort that went into this thing:



In the video, GAF member kankki describes how he used his 3D printing lab to construct an elaborate fake.

Well played. In the age of 3D printing, this serves as a reminder not to believe in things.

Trust nobody.

Well played. Showing the process is a smart move as well. A sobering reminder to trust nothing!

?

dont you mean 'random shit on the internet'?

Gotta say I don't understand the reverence for this guy. :shrug:

edit: and pretty sure he trolled like 3 dozen people not 'the world', lol.

Good job trying to contain the leak Nintendo. I just never thought you would go as far as creating a fake fake leak. Well I'm not buying it.

This all feels like an episode of behind the magician's secrets

I'm wondering why someone would go to such lengths to create a fake "leak". What a waste of time.
You could argue it's a social experiment to see what insane lengths GAF would go to see if something is real. Case in point, just look at the insanity in the thread, mainly #TreeGate

It's all a cover up. This is to cover up that it's real, it's a deceitful Junior! Trust no Juniors! Junior conspiracy!

Why do people debate whether an image of a controller is fake or not? What a waste of time.

It's called having fun.

Brilliant.

But at this point I also would't be surprised if the final thing ends up similar in concept (due to the patent and several reports on the whole no button thing).
