[Nyoro SF]

Kids are more sophisticated with their photoshops nowadays than ever before!

 

[timetokill]

Reveal of fake triggered automatically once the last thread reached 1 million views I guess hahaha

 

[Galang]

No!!! I still believe

 

[K.Sabot]

So that's
Team CG: 1
Team Real: 1

 

[Akiller]

I, for one, say wow.

 

[xzeldax3]

The other thread was created because of the fake, so all in all I am happy.

 

[Godzilla's Left Toe]

Hmm.

 

[PKMNTrainer]

Nintendo, please save us. We are lost, because we follow blind leaders.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Thank goodness.

 

[BitStyle]

LOL

Well played! It was a hell of a ride.

Now give us some damn info, Nintendo! This is what you've driven us to

 

[Stupid Sexy Flanders]

Dark theme? They're one of us!

 

[Acheteedo]

Haha, wow... really impressive fake, same applies to the other pictures I guess?

It was too shit a console idea to be real I suppose, you can't double down on the Wii U approach after such a massive failure... I really started to believe though.

 

[Nerokis]

I don't believe it. This person went through the trouble of making an elaborate YouTube video, and is in touch with GAF's sensibilities. He knows how we're going to respond to this: time to eat crow, I knew it, this person is dumb, etc., etc. They're now in the process of making an even more elaborate video in preparation for E3, and will post it the moment Nintendo reveals the NX, taking back the take back and pulling the rug from under the people who suddenly felt superior to everyone else.

We're all being played with.

 

[Stormhammer]

"Called it"

like bruh, it was a 50/50 shot you arent some seer

 

[LordOcidax]

Saw that coming...

 

[Clov]

Well, they sure fooled me! In my defense, I didn't believe the first leak. It was the second one that got me!

 

[cartographer]

The best part was people accusing those who thought it was fake or at least fishy as "grasping for straws."

 

[Zekes!]

Props for using Dark Theme

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Of course it was. People need to relax a bit.

 

[Crzy1]

Well, glad it was fake, looked insanely uncomfortable. Hopefully Nintendo has something a bit more ergonomic planned.

 

[Volotaire]

The video and the reveal was perfection. Bravo to the faker. I enjoyed the ride.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Obviously.
No idea why people believed that given how fake it looked.

Edit: at least the black version has some effort behind it.

Some people just love to see the world burn.

Well in this case Nintendo is the world... There were so many sad posts in the leak threads lol.

 

[mgarnica89]

Why does it matter? It's the literally the same controller in another color. How could it possibly be real if the other one is fake?

I never believed the white one for even a second. But then the second 2 pics came and made me think about it.

 

[Kater]

I was #TeamReal ._.

Relieved but also a bit ashamed that I fell for it.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

The best part was people accusing those who thought it was fake or at least fishy as "grasping for straws."

indeed

"looks like crap and uncomfortable as hell"

"oh well it's a PROTOTYPE"

 

[forknknife]

Haha awesome. I was not 100% certain but i was pretty much unable to believe Nintendo would make such a design, it was too big of a departure from their industrial design DNA, too formal and non ergonomic.

 

[Mixolydian]

I never commented in either thread, so now I'm going to feign superiority and laugh at #Teamreal.

 

[Air]

I wanted it to be real, now I'm disappointed that it's not

 

[Peltz]

Where is this photo from though? Same guy?

The "screen" is made of black acrylic. Trust me.

 

[Bitanator]

That dude who made a thread saying how the NX was the biggest mistake in gaming haha, it was not even the real thing

 

[DeuceGamer]

Kinda happy but I really want a reveal. It's time to show what you have Nintendo.

 

[alr1ght]

Thank goodness.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

Wooooow. GG no re.

 

[Ladekabel]

Amazing!

 

[L Thammy]

Wow, so this ended up being the Rayman leak all over again. Exact same ending and everything. Also;

I wonder if all of the people claiming Team Fake was in denial will be as noisy now.

 

[Isotope]

The tress Neogaf! The trees!

 

[Crayolan]

150 pages in like 2-3 days over a fake. People are so fucking thirsty for some NX news it's insane.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

The "screen" is made of black acrylic. Trust me.

Seriously. If it worked why the fuck wouldn't they actually display an image on it.

Fake af.

 

[Azalean]

Glad it's fake. A controller with no real buttons would have been a huge mistake.

 

[Übermatik]

Okay here's the situation.

I knew it was a render. I bloody knew it.

You won't believe me.

But I believe me.

And that's all that matters.

 

[Fantastical]

#teamreal

follow the money

Thanks god. I liked some of the ideas but no physical buttons would be evil.

 

[Anarky]

I'm literally crying from laughter right now.

 

[mcrommert]

The second one looked identical, so unless this guy had Nintendo's design documents of the thing and only fucked up on the color, it's fake too.

I know, hence the sad face

 

[madstarr12]

Lol, well isn't it still likely that the NX controller was supposed to be haptic buttons anyway though? This just confirmed the design to be fake, not the concept, right?

 

[Kayo Police]

#TeamButtons ?

 

[Tripy73]

Holy shit, it's really good fake, great job Idriss XD

 

[Heroman]

Seriously. If it worked why the fuck wouldn't they actually display an image on it.

Fake af.

I ask that same question and got some bs answers.

 

[Bluekaveli]

We'll see soon

 

[illusionary]

Yep, always seemed a bit far-fetched.- it was just *too* close to the design int he patent filing to ring true to me.

Bring on E3 and some real news!

 

[Caffeine]

thank god
