good patent for the directional shoulder buttons. hopefully they'll incorporate it on a normal controller without a screen. as some nintendo fans are skeptical on a gamepad controller which pushes the console to have a high price point with lower hardware specs.

Again, the screen was never the problem. The size and shape was.

it would really be hard to have slim screen controller trying to fit in everything then we would still have analog sticks in it. so i don't know how you can try to design a tablet like ipad with analog sticks lying around upfront and there would still be L, R, ZL and ZR.  couldn't see it happening.  the shape as a form factor for a tablet, are you expecting a controller bigger than a PS4 with a 4" screen? with the same mould ala gamecube?
