[Destructoid] Leaked photo of NX controller?

I love it.
If it was real the whole image would crop while keeping the same aspect ratio would it not? This looks like the guy just took the picture and pasted it into the NX screen area without resizing.This is the exact frame that was used. You can tell from the various parallax elements that converge at that moment ( pillars, branches etc. ).
Quick & dirty perspective overlay ( close enough though ) ...
Fake confirmed.
Let's assume they do showcase a new screen based controller.
I see no reason they would not also have a "Pro Controller" just as they did with Wii U. The market demands it and Nintendo obviously listens to that.
And that is rendered with just the upper third or so actually on-screen? Now that's weird.

I am not going to argue about physical buttons versus touch display buttons with haptics. To me haptics are the future of innovation. A place between touch screen and and an actual button with the added benefit of customization. This tech will work wonders on the NX as well as mobile, PC, and VR. I have tried haptic feedback on the Steam Controller and I love it. As an example, I played various 2D platformers with the left trackpad. With haptic feedback set on high I was able to get used to it in about a week. I set it up like an oldschool d-pad and now it feels great to me. I have the feedback on medium now and can even play it well on low, but I quite like the sensation the feedback gives me so I am comfortable with it on medium.
Edit-corrected some typos and some other info.
And if there's physical buttons on a slider or on the back?
Why is everyone thinking about that when it seems obvious, if such a tech was used, it would be more for something like that.
And the portable would have a smaller version of it to replace the bottom screen of the 3ds.
I'm assuming this *IS* the portable. Would be really dumb to be wii u 2 with what seems like a worse (and waaaaaaay more expensive) gamepad. NX would be 400-500+ at launch.
yeah, if it's an interactive tech demo, that doesn't sound right to me.

100% this. But I don't think a lot of people have tried the Steam Controller so they're probably unaware of how advanced haptics or paddles completely revolutionize how controllers work.

People keep saying this, but actually think about it.
So in part of the demo you can move the camera around and maybe even zoom in. Fine. But how does that explain the still of the UE4 demo matching perfectly with the prototype image? If it was during the fly around, that proves that the image was cropped. If it was during the portion where you control the camera, why does it match so perfectly with the still?
C'mon GAF!
Believe me, it can be worse, we just need a fake leak that support this one (fake or legit)

Alright, this thread is a more thrilling VR experience of a rollercoaster, than a VR rollercoaster demo!
As of now, theres 50:50 chance of one of the following to happen:
- A dev is going to get fired and is going to face the ultimate Ninja-Lawyer storm.
- A Rösti is going to face Bish's virtual angry fist of a god.
Did i get everything so far?

i don't understand why you would think that.
Here is a different video of the same flythrough with the ui thing at the top:

The only relevant pieces of information needed to predict what the NX is are the statements from Iwata and what he considers were the reasons for the failiure.

If it is real...
I guess I'm more interested in it than I ever was in the Wii U. Their streaming tablet controller was so uninspiring that I forgot the system was even releases until I walked into a Best Buy a few weeks before launch and saw the demo kiosks in the store, and I'm usually someone who buys all Nintendo consoles day one.
But I'm really not sure if I'll like the removal of face buttons from the controller. I'm willing to try something different (the Steam Controller is definitely cool, and I've barely dived into everything it can do yet), but if I don't like the main input method for the system, it'll be another generation where I don't enjoy playing Nintendo games as much as I could be (never loved the pointer and waggle in the Mario Galaxy games either, or the waggle in DCK:R).

I wish people who don't understand people can like both the mainstream way to do things (PSBONE) and a very different approach (this). Yeah it's not ergonomically perfect and probably fake, but seriously I'm really rooting for Nintendo to keep pushing stuff I can't get elsewhere. I don't understand how some of you can pretend you like gaming when all you really do love is a specific, close-minded brand of it. It's like saying you love gaming because you've played solitaire on WIndows 95...
That's not how perspective works. Walking up closer to something with give you a noticeably different perspective to an off-centre crop of a frame from further out. Not to mention the full frame we have is from the flyby mode which would be even harder to replicate by walking around.
It very well could be.
Frankly he should be if he made that post and this turns out to be a fake.

Yes, the controller is the mobile device. Which with the right equipment could clip into a headset ala Samsung Gear.

I'm curious, what about this makes you more interested in it than when you learned about the Wii U?

Rösti you better elaborate on your previous post because this looks like a fake .
I'd be happy. But that would be expensive.
Well I dunno. I've been playing on touchscreen only devices for a couple of years. I guess I'm beyond open minded. 😏
Not necessarily. Moving to wider resolutions wouldn't necessarily increase the FOV.
Random speculation with no evidence: the camera could track your face, and the distance you hold it from your face could alter the game's FOV on the fly.
Gyroscope for positioning + face tracking = holding a portal into another world.
Team real, but who knows.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Nothing about it is good for VR. I can't even begin to comprehend how you think that thing would slide into a GearVR or whatever and react to lenses.
Why is everyone thinking about that when it seems obvious, if such a tech was used, it would be more for something like that.
And the portable would have a smaller version of it to replace the bottom screen of the 3ds.
"Ah yes, the reason WiiU failed is because of the Gamepad's shape. People don't like rectangular products anymore!"

Like this...
See this isn't as bad as I thought, I would like the top and bottom be the same shape though. Maybe the camera can flip up from the back to the top above the screen? I dunno.
Could be longer.

Yeah, price would really be a problem with this hybrid model, but we still don´t know if they intend to do a console as powerful as a PS4 or XBO, they may keep (again) the specs low in favor of the price and the hybrid concept.
Could be longer.
E3 without NX reveal? That would be the end of me.
Could still be real. I still think the scene could be from 7-8 seconds into the clip. I just can't do a mock up right now as I've only got my phone.

All this mystery, hell we don't even know if this is just going to be it or if there will also be a console. It really wouldn't hurt to just say something Nintendo.
So he lied to us? :/

yeah that's something I have been speculating, the put out a patent for a tv version of that and have tech to do it in the new 3DS.
Doubling the horizontal fov is not something you should expect in all games, especially demanding ones.
it's probably something industrial and basic for development purposes. probably not a final design if it is real. the wii u gamepad changed from dev kit to e3 2011 to e3 2012.

All these wild emotions later, and I'm still of the "fake until proven real" persuasion. Very entertaining, though.
Neither Nintendo nor the leaker have spoken on this, so...the rollercoaster continues.
