NX fan concept art thread

I can see it being used in a lot of Japanese videos.

Take a good look at this picture. What would be the natural evolution?

If there this had the New 3ds and the Wii U controller on here it would be even more apparent: A horizontal handheld with a Wii U controller form factor with a New 3DS XL size (hopefully).
 
This is more fan fiction than fan art, but here goes. Also I guess I went mad.

Nintendo Wii was a game console that was designed to sell general populace Wii Sports with it. It got really good at it, too. Nintendo Wii U was not really designed to sell you a particular game, in some markets it was bundled with Nintendo Land, but the minigame aspect turned its more core audience off into treating it more as a tech demo pack. Same could be said about 3DS, launched with first party titles that did seem basically designed with more powerful DS in mind.

And yet, there was a game that pushed Wii U into not-so-much-of-a-joke territory in the west for quite a few months, single-handedly. There was a game that ended up being bundled with last batch of Wiis while Wii Sports became an optional add-on to the package instead due to its extraordinary sales. There was a game that was basically a symbol of 3DS resuscitation, even if it was arguably the worst, content-wise, of all first-party 3DS games releasing in the same time-frame.

Nintendo NX may be the system that is designed specifically around Mario Kart. The detachable controllers would be designed to be easily foldable into wide variety of "rectangular steering wheels". Also Home Menu would be designed by Madame Sakurai, under strict directions from Masahiro Sakurai.

 
Here's something that probably won't happen. Inspired by the customizable Xbox Elite controller. With this, you can customize where you want the buttons. When docked, a Pro like controller is required.

I took damnkid's design and tweaked it to my personal preference. I think it would be cool if there was an option for a lite and XL screen though.

This would be the perfect thread for someone with inside knowledge to slip in a drawing of the real NX controller and we'd never know. Until the reveal anyway. Lol.

Here's two I like. They're not mine. Apparently they were mock ups for the Wii U controller before it was revealed. Funny how much they fit the NX rumours hey?

Apparently this is based on drawings received from a very credible source.

The final name will be "Nintendonx", pronounced "Nin ten donks".

Not sure if you're being serious, but those pics I found were posted 5 and a half years ago.

Weird if so, and looks too fake to be Nintendo mocups. No one puts wii screens overlayed like that in a concept pic. Also, they coincidentally had the same idea, which I find suspicious because I totally guessed that weird unrealistic design.

I would just like to say that this concept art thread is the best part of NX speculation, and GAF has delivered bigtime.

Even though this isn't yours, I still think this one is really cool. I wouldn't mind something like this provided you could easily reach all the buttons on the backside.
