Bruh, you don't even know if these pictures are true or not but yet you somehow know the "direction" Nintendo is heading now?

Also, you act as if Nintendo don't know what they are doing with their controllers. You might not like the design choices they may have made, but they make sure the controllers they choose work well. Such as how a lot of the worries people had with the Wii U gamepad were resolved and planned way ahead of time by Nintendo. I hear alot of people say on the Wii U gamepad is that it is a good controller too, despite how people thought of it and whether they liked the decision Nintendo made on using that or a regular control.

If any company were to try a different layout and use touchscreen controls, it would be Nintendo I would trust the most to work out whether it would work or not. 

Like I said, maybe the controller will be completely terrible, maybe it will be completely amazing and revolutionary, but as of right now people are jumping way too early to conclusions. E3 is only 2 and a half months away. 

Sure, I could have phrased it clearer:
If the pictured controller is real, then I do not like the direction Nintendo is taking. 

Also, I never said Nintendo was bad a making controllers, I am saying that this controller (the one in the picture) is a bad idea! The previous controllers were all fine and didn't have major flaws, this one has one major flaw.

I'll compare it to the Gamepad, which by the way I liked from the beginning:
The gamepad has touch controls as an extra next to a classical button layout. It's flaws are minor for gaming (battery life, ZR+ZL could have been analog).
The "leaked" controller partially replaces buttons from the classical layout with touch controls. As I pointed at in my previous post the big flaw is: you can't feel where the buttons are.

If they can somehow make the touch buttons exactly as good as physical buttons, or prove to me that thecontroller works precisely, then I'll be fine with it. Otherwise I am going to ignore the NX.

Yeah I can see how some people might thnk of touch controls and automatically think the worst, but that's the thing nobody knows how it will work or if this is true or not.  Seeing as how it's Nintendo, I could easily see them finding a way to make it work if this is in fact true. Either way people are jumping to conclusions though with some of the reactions here and are judging this too soon. We'll all know in 2 and a half months at E3.
