This controller is a concept, nothing more at the moment. If the NX controller looks anything remotely like this, Nintendo can kiss the home console market goodbye. I love that Nintendo isn't saying anything about it. They're like, "Let them be all over this piece of shit, and we'll blow em away with the reveal". You know they're saying that behind closed doors. XD

The photo is most likely at best a prototype and at worst a fake, but I think the pattented concept is coming, probably this year.

No, bad news. If this is real Nintendo can expect another gem of poor support and low sales.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

I wouldn't be super against this idea, but the controller looks pretty awful in terms of how it's shaped..

It's really flat and the display on the controller doesn't show very much... looks difficult to hold too

Sorry but no the controller looks awful and it wouldn't work.



                                                                                     

This could be the next Wiimote indeed. I agree with your analysis. If this is one is well thought-out it could be a game changer.

Don't get up in a puff, I've seen the truth and I don't like it.



I like your analysis but I'm still unsure of how it will be adopted and utilized by third party developers with the severe lack of physical buttons... I'm cautiously optimistic about this and I will try anything once but I just hope Nintendo does this right.

Also, on a side note, judging from the new photos it doesn't look very comfortable to hold... they really need to add some handles on that thing!  Besides that I love how it looks.
