im HOPING that the final pic is a charging dock, because it definatly looks like a dock for the wiimote.

bobafett · Jun 3, 2006

Yeah, probably a charging dock.

Guess they did experiment with analog stick on the Wiimote.

Looks like some kind of cap that plugs into the back of the controller when nunchuck part is not used.

But it says "Wireless transceivers" at the page...

Shiggy · Jun 3, 2006

Ohhh...it seems to be the wireless connector of the Game Boy Micro.

McBacon · Jun 3, 2006

Yah, thats pretty rad.

It isn't said there, but the images look quite like it:

I know

But the last one probably just for Micro.

Yoshi · Jun 3, 2006

Yeah, great find, Braec =).

Roders5 · Jun 3, 2006

Very interesting to see the different ideas. Also I noticed that they are all called 'Control devices for electronic games' except the last one which is called 'Casings for control devices for electronic games', and it also seems to be slightly larger.

Shiggy · Jun 3, 2006

Well done, Roder.

Yes, that's my only concern as of right now. Oh, and they better keep the clear buttons.

Hmm.. It also suits the older version of the Wiimote, rather than the current one.

awesome these are great finds

jamesinclair · Jun 3, 2006

5 button dpad = best dpad ever

Tadaima · Jun 3, 2006

To anyone who played using the Nunchuck: Does the analogue stick click down (L3 style), or is it still nothing more than a stick (GameCube style)?

That 7th one was going to use a webbed D-Pad...
OMG That would have sucked SO bad!

why cant they just use the dpad from the neogeo pocket

Useless without pics.

Was it soft rubber or something?

AndoCalrissian · Jun 4, 2006

I dunno, I thought the Wii Remote d-pad felt great. I'm satisfied.

I guess they'll be offering faceplates perhaps.

I don't remember it clicking. I'm pretty sure it's GC style.

Porridge · Jun 4, 2006

neo geo pocket did indeed have a great control stick, although i kinda thought the clicking noise made it sound a little fragile

Barry Lightning · Jun 4, 2006

seriously? that speaker in the controller shit might be the most brilliant thing since the rumble pack, for sure.

Thats what I was thinking, specially because of the dotted lines around the buttons.

small gripe. you size matched them by length. the speaker iteration is longer than the others you should have used a constant like the home button to size match.

I actually like the version with a button cluster around the big A. I don't think the Dpad is a great primary input and I would like more than two primary inputs and an unrealiable cluster. Weapon selection and all is fine on the Dpad but the A button should have a kidney x & y to the left and right with the A button raised higher.

EDIT: Like this

I like the first one than the final design, because it has the voice reciever.

Looks like someone was ahead of me! Damn you.

I like that. But on the other hand, having just one primary button has its own advances, so I'm not sure which would be better in the long run.

I personally love it!

but having more buttons would scare away the non-gamers that Nintendo has been trying to say the wiimote would have an easy learning curve for

Rlan · Jun 4, 2006

I'm surprised they never tried to intergrate a SNES-like 1-4 button scheme, instead of the 1 and 2 buttons.

But then, you'd need shoulder buttons too, and it would just get complicated.
