Pretty interesting! Although, I don't understand why the display have to cover the entire controller since you're be covering up like a third or more of the controller with your hands, thus blocking out a big chunk of the actual display.... Would be very cool if you could move around the button layout how ever you want them, but this would only be a good thing if the display could actually make your fingers FEEL the buttons. Forgot what the word for that is...

 

Haptic Feedback, yes? It shouldn't be too difficult to give some feeling of push on surface, although it would likely be a feeling of pushing more resistant jello over hard button.

Haptic feedback, yes! That would be such a cool thing to have. Just imagine the puzzles you could do for Zelda with that.
