How about you take a step back from shouting "WII U 2!!!" and consider that this might very well be their next handheld.
It's not going to be a handheld. Especially not with that design.

Maybe the buttons have screens on them.
Mind blown.
Rosti isn't an insider I thought? He just liked to dig through patents and online fillings.
If it's the handheld, it's dead on arrival.
What's the appeal in this ?
This is the very definition of gimmick.
Afaik, he doesn't ,but knows devs/people. He is trustable.
I normally wouldn't think so, but he does seem to do weird things that I can only imagine are designed to get reactions. Recently he made a mock Nintendo Direct logo and a document containing a statement by Nintendo President Kimishima. Even though he mentions that they're not real in his post, why in the world do you make a mock statement from the president? Who does that? So people do a double take at your post?That's really not Rosti's style tbh
Nintendo really does do whatever they want and everybody else can fuck off.
This just seems like them ignoring almost all of the criticisms of the Wii U and decided to give it another go.
If it were the handheld, and Nintendo's answer to mobile gaming, would people freak out any less?
The Wii was great for Mario and Zelda and the gamepad, while not beneficial to Mario it was also not detrimental and it's wonderful for Zelda. I'd assume there would be a classic controller just like their previous two systems for Smash and local multiplayer since even if it's cheaper than we imagine it'll still be pretty expensiveYeah. I buy nintendo stuff to play zelda games (and also mario/smash). My thoughts are that just looking at it, it doesn't look like it'll work for mario/zelda/smash - but that's because all I have is one picture. The picture makes it look like it'll suck for my 3 favorite nintendo franchises.
What you say is true, though - nintendo wouldn't release a system that makes it hard to play their core franchises, I don't think. Hopefully the reveal will make it clear that it's all good.

Which translated from HEX to text is
Read it backwards.

It's just regular ASCII converted to hexadecimal and means "This should have NOT been exposed."Why is everyone freaking out about this gibberish post? Explain it to me as if I'm stupid with no knowledge of it.
Well, I'll just weigh in that I wouldn't be very excited for this type of controller.
Controller
Ah, okay.

I've got an idea. What if they use transparent dome buttons on top of the display?
So if they want to have buttons they just place the button image there, and if they don't they simply leave it out and it's still transparent.
Where are we right now in the 5 stages of grief?
Yeah, it's a prototype and not the final design, but it tells a lot.
Where are we right now in the 5 stages of grief?
It actually does. It gives devs or consumers the ability to move the buttons wherever they wish, which gives freedom when it comes to hand placement/etc. It also opens up the system for loads of mobile games, which is what we knew Nintendo wanted to do.

It's Rosti, he's not anybody.

How much does it tell if we don't even know if it's a handheld device or a controller?
It's not really a gimmick. It's maximizing the screen space on a small and ergonomic form factor. There might be fewer buttons than one would like but that's hardly a gimmick.
Doomed.Where are we right now in the 5 stages of grief?
It's hex for ".desopxe neeb TON evah dluohs sihT"
In the future, we'd like people to not make their posts like this though. It's obnoxious and not adding anything that wouldn't be gained by using normal writing.
I feel like any other person would have just shown a link to the Wii announcement. In fact, that's what someone else did when talking about the same thing. He went out of his way to make an image of the thing and post it here. I guess he really wanted to show people what a possible announcement could be like, but it's unusual behavior to me at least.That was just to show what people could expect from a nintendo nx announcement. It was obvious a joke, strange some people were confused by it.
Try a hex > ascii converter
So who's Rösti other than someone who makes a few good posts here? Any proven track records with inside info? Serious question.
You know, except for the fact that Nintendo owns a patent about the exact same screen form which specified that it was for a handheld.It's not going to be a handheld. Especially not with that design.
