>if they filed a patent for it that means its gonna happen
Anon. It's called preemptive patenting. Pic related. Sony patented commercials in between video games years ago and that never happened.
Why is everybody saying it has no buttons when it says it has 2 sticks?

Every damn time
>>319765564
it's an upgraded version of the current wiiU pad.
Also patent != final products. You can't decide to forget the other patent with the side wheels just because it make your shitpost more stupid.
>>319765749
>Implying the average /v/ user knows how to read at this point
Just look at the OP who made a thread even though one about the exact subject already existed
>>319765949
Nigger, the problem is not that are sticks instead of buttons. The fucking problem is that there are sticks and NO buttons.
This is a cellphone with sticks in the middle of the screen.
>>319768680
This is a patent that refers specifically to the idea of a touch screen that is able to have holes in the middle of it's structure and a freeform shape as according to Sharp's newest technology.
There is no problem because it literally doesn't exist and never will exist. Have you seen the Gamepad's patent back in the day? It also lacked most buttons, because these illustratoins are just meant to make the general idea clear to lawyers and what not in layman terms.
I'm not saying that Nintendo's controller won't suck, but this is not even close to possibly being evidence of anything final.
This could also be the nx
>>319769305
Seems like a flashy gimmick that doesn't exactly innovates gaming
As in adding anything new to the game, pretty much just a comfier wii U gamepad, is an improvement
I actually would be okay with this as long as it is
>a handheld
My biggest gripe with handhelds is that I always found a gamepad mold more comfy than a rectangle, this seems to change that
or
>OPTIONAL
Also make NX backward compatible with Wii U gamepad so I wouldn't have to buy the controller to enjoy off tv play
>>319765701
I feel this been hinted since they talked about "hole technology"
Also that patent looks alot like the Pokken Controller
This isn't the NX controller you retard. This is literally them just trying to patent something they think Apple or some phone company would do.
It always goes like this. You guys are gonna laugh at Nintendo's crazy control scheme and when it releases you're gonna find out it's not bad after all. In fact, you're gonna say it's great.
Same with every controller Nintendo released since forever.

>>319765701
The burden of proof is on you to prove this isn't the NX.
>>319765701
I don't think anyone is statig that. If they filed the patent, it still means it's a concept that is being taken seriously to SOME degree.
This is an idea of what is going on at Nintendo, even if they already scrapped this and have thought of something new all together.
>>319770946
No, I'm sorry, maybe you dropped out of high school, but that isn't how burden of proof works.
You're the one making the claim it is on the NX, you have to prove it is.
>>319771015
This
Just like Sony with interactive advertisements during video games.
It's an idea at the thinking process of Sony, and the kind of experiences they want to deliver to consumers, even if they scrapped it.
>>319770927
No, namefag, a touch screen instead of buttons, especially one where the "buttons" change places in each game, will never be better than real, physical buttons.
>>319770946
Nigger you what
>>319771242
It has physical input
This is likely not the NX, but instead a bluetooth enabled phone controller
>>319771447
I'm seeing two sticks and two shoulder buttons. No face buttons, no d-pad.
>>319765564
>The super pre-alpha spitballing idea that might not even get used looks like shit
Gee, do ya think?
You people would look at a first build woth placeholder graphics then come make a thread on /v/ about how shit the game's going to look
>>319771640
This is just a concept, to explain what the basic idea is. You'd have to be insane to think they'd go with that exact design
>>319770927
I was hyped as shit for the Wii and today it is my pick for the worst console in history.
>>319770927
Physical input > Digital input
This is a fact.
I like the idea of customizable button layouts, but there would need to be some sort of mechanism to create physical feedback for the buttons, and it would have to feel good. I don't doubt that Nintendo could accomplish that BUT I'm not so sure they can accomplish it at the cost that they typically target. So what they'll probably do is have the full array of face buttons in addition to the sticks.
>>319771670
>You people would look at a first build woth placeholder graphics then come make a thread on /v/ about how shit the game's going to look
you mean like exactly what happened with broken age?
>>319770946
What?
I think shitposting might have seriously affected your brain if you belive that.
>>319771447

needs more buttons tho

Wow, Nintendo.
>>319774087

Actually a great deal patents relating to technology are filed merely to keep them out of the competitions hands. The US patent system is really fucked.

>pierced
what
>>319765564
>>319769305
If what these patents are suggesting and the big rumor that the NX will be a console-handheld hybrid. I have a feeling that the controller in the OP will be the handheld portion of the system and will act as the Supplemental Computing Device when connected to the console
>>319765564
I'm so happy I'm not a Nintendo fan. It must be so shitty having your favorite dev just push out one shitty gimmick after another instead of making real games.
This is definitely happening

>>319775271
The only bad thing about the gimmicks is naysayers like you and pussyfooting devs who refuse to really dive in so they never get fully explored.
>>319775387
Yep. This confirms it all.
Nintendo's new system with freeform controller/handheld coming in 2016.

the whole patent revolve around how they put the 2 sticks directly. Why are patent spammers literally unable to read what they are fucking posting?
>>319775750
we've known about it for a while
>>319775387
This correlates extremely well with the patent
>>319775750
>>319775387
We actually had a few threads about this a year ago, I remember reading and discussing that exact same article here. For some reason we just forgot about it, even though the report is pretty significant if true.
>>319770946
>The burden of proof is on you to prove this isn't the NX.
Easy. It's a patent. Sony unused patent prove a patent isn't a console project. Your turn.
>yfw the next DS is round
>>319776082
my palms will cry tears of joy
fuck these hard rectangles
>>319775889
the patent was filled after the deal so it's not really concluding. They might have a partnership or something though, nintendo funds quite a bit of new tech stuff, like those crystal memories.
>>319775183
The NX will also be using cards instead of discs which probably means that you can put the physical game in both units
>implying this is a new thing
>implying this even works well
Let me tell you about a genesis emulator I had on my android phone. Having buttons and a stick on the screen prevents you from seeing a part of the game. Plus when you're pushing the stick you end up dragging your finger out of the screen.
>>319774320
Holy shit it's Gunei Yokoi's signature
Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
I wish Nintendo hadn't called a yakuza hit on him ending his life.
You gotta love shitty patent drawings. It's like the official artwork that Nintendo doesn't want you to know exists.
>>319765564
Oh look it's gonna be another gimmick console. Surprise surprise.

>Having buttons and a stick on the screen prevents you from seeing a part of the game.
That's absolutely true for emulators, but the nice thing about a console is that games are designed specifically for it in the first place.
> Plus when you're pushing the stick you end up dragging your finger out of the screen.
I'm not sure what you're saying here

Why do you want a 3rd system that's essentially the same thing on the market? This is why the same games end up at the top of the charts every year
>>319776846
Anon, the hardware that Nintendo makes is garbage. They need some sort of gimmick to survive the market.
To that anon that said he was going to make a 3D mockup of this, are you still here?
>>319776692
Hello no, I hate iPhone bullshit
>>319777169
>That's absolutely true for emulators, but the nice thing about a console is that games are designed specifically for it in the first place.
Highly skeptical of that. Especially regarding movement controls. You just can't line everything on the edges of the screen. I think those games would either suffer the problem I've mentioned or have some realy bad design constraints.
>I'm not sure what you're saying here
Without the feel of the stick, it's real easy to lose it. You've got the stick pushing in a direction but have to make a sharp turn. On a gamepad the stick would rotate in a circular motion and guide you to its next position. Without physical touch, you frequently end up dragging your finger out of the "stick zone".
mfw touch screen controls
>>319777664
It clearly has control sticks
>>319775636
>y-you just can't appreciate how creative it is!
Whatever helps you sleep at night friend. I'll be over here playing games with controllers that make sense.
Am I the only one looking forward to the motion controls? Motion controls feel natural and can be more precise than sticks/etc. Splatoon made me realize just how good gyro controls can be. I played some MGS1 right after playing some Splatoon a while back and found myself tilting the controller out of habit and wondered why the camera wasn't following my movements. Of course I realized that it's a PS1 game and felt like an idiot afterward but my point still stands.
>>319777753
the sticks are real bro, its the buttons that are fake (and that's just according to this mockup, which is obviously not a final design)
>>319777753
>Without physical touch, you frequently end up dragging your finger out of the "stick zone"
Looks like the Pokken Controller
Can someone make up?
Displaying a game and using the Wii U Pro Controller layout instead
>>319770946
Because PS4 ended up being MCDONALDS! because you know, patents
Oh wait
>>319778124
So will the screen area around the sticks work and respond like buttons
Seems like the original steam controller
>>319765746
Anyone have that comic comparing what people thought Kinect would mean and the reality?
>>319765949
Press left and right on your stick at the same time. I dare you.
>>319778479
That seems to be the idea, I hope there's actual buttons though as it would probably harder for 3rd party devs to put their games on it
>>319778754
third party devs are just gonna respond like this guy no matter what >>319776846
there should be buttons because it's important to have physical feedback in addition to touch control, that's something that nintendo themselves have reiterated when talking about the DS and 3DS lines and the Wii U.
>>319778943
The only way Nintendo can even hope to win 3rd party devs over this time is to sell this console to the public hard and bring in a good early player base. Otherwise the 3rd parties won't even give them the time
>>319778328
here u go
>>319779394
yeah, third parties didnt even jump on the wii for a while and that was a huge success out the gate
>>319775271
You don't know what a game dev is do you?
We all know this is the NX. It's funny watching people deny it right up to the last possible minute. I'm going to screencap some of these posts for when it's revealed next year.
>>319779817
What? Nintendo develops games as well as hardware.
>>319780120
are we reading the same thread?
>>319776842
So it's essentially a less massive version of the wii u game pad.
>>319778943
I don't see how the Wii I layout can't work
They're not going to do touch screen buttons. Patents usually just give the most basic information about the new technology itself and nothing more.Right?

>>319765564
This your first patent scare, son? Companies file patents all the fucking time, it doesn't mean shit. Most of the patents filed are just so that other companies can't patent the idea, it doesn't mean there's any intention of actually making the thing.

>>319781201
What? I'm a huge Nintendo fan, I've owned every console they've ever made. I've also come to accept that they make shitty hardware, and the people who don't want to believe it are amusing. I don't know what you're getting angry about.
>>319781498
I don't call apps games, just poison.
>>319781537
Look at the new Mario tennis for example. You can scream about how terrible and rehashy and unoriginal and shitty JC3 and F4 are until you're blue in the face, but they'll never be as lazy as the fuckfest that is Mario Tennis.

you can call them whatever the fuck you want and it still doesn't change the fact that they are eating into the video game market.
handhelds are first to hit and console games (which are already feeling the effects of mobile games) will be hit next.
>>319765564
Oh great, another gimmick that nobody (third parties and consumers) care.
Why thye dont make a Gamecube 2?
>>319781450
They're clearly saving their good shit for the NX. Wii U is dead
>>319782130
They must have been saving their good shit since the gamecube, then.
>>319781582
I'm not angry about anything, I'm pointing out how retarded it sound to go "LOL i'm gonna screencap these posts cause your all in so much DENAIL :D" when only a fringe minority of the discussion even qualifies
>>319781697
But is the game good? Is it bad? How is it game mechanically speaking and what flaws does it have as a game?
I don't give a shit about console loyalty, but I'm not some retard that thinks that things would be better if Nintendo went third party, nor do I think games of other companies I may not like are automatically bad.
Nintendo is a company that aims to have long-term profits rather than short-term profits, hence why their games tend to now go down in price and also why their games tend to be polished.
And before you stupid fucking ass try to shitpost, polished doesn't mean that the game is necessarily good.
Anyway, it's fucking stupid to want Nintendo to go third party and have them be forced to aim for short-term profits instead. We got enough publishers that fuck over devs and shit out games that are unpolished turds, we don't need Nintendo joining them because of your stupid as fuck console wars.
>>319782303
Yes, it's a bad game, it plays exactly like the GCN iteration, except it has one game mode, one stage and less playable characters. Literally the only improvement is the graphics. I've never seen a lazier sequel.
And even if they did go 3rd party, they'd still be their own publishers. They wouldn't have to turn to activision or some shit like your ignorant ass thinks.
It would just be the same shitty Nintendo games, except on another platform.
>>319783452

are you -8?
>>319765564
PS4 is doing well with the gamepad. Literally no one cares about gimmick controllers anymore.
I don't get why they don't stop with the gimmicks and make a straight game console for once. Been almost 15 years since the last one...

>>319784338
gimmicks are inherently bad meme pls go away
>>319783285
>It would just be the same shitty Nintendo games
A bad Mario Tennis game doesn't discredit their massive library of highly acclaimed games
>>319784741
Maybe, but 90% of the 1st party WiiU library sure does.
>>319774087
Better than the 22 that released for wii u
>>319784897
Is that why they've received nothing but praise by critics and consumers?
>>319784465
Because without a gimmick they'd just have a completely normal console that lacks 3rd party support, as opposed to one that atleast has a gimmick to make up for the lack of 3rd party.
>>319784897
As according to your personal opinion which sadly loses any worth outside of your own home. Most First party Wii U games still got good reviews.
>>319765949
Why is it so difficult for them to just make a comfortable controller and knock this gimmicky shit off for once?
>yfw it's not only a gamepad
>it's also an attachment
Honestly, this is basically just an improved Wii U Gamepad
It fixes the problem of touchscreen options being far at hand
So theres the innovation or whatever
The problem would be the pricing, I would hope this is optional
>>319785228
their controllers are very comfortable

>>319785154
A gimmick that nobody gave a shit about, look at tropical freeze, the game didn't even use the tablet. What the fuck is the point of a gimmick if its not used, most dev's didn't even want to make games for it due to extra programming for it. Half of the issues ninty has is their own doing.
>>319785467
nintendo has learned that making gimmicks optional is pretty much the same as not making them at all. nobody makes games for peripherals when they can instead make them for the entire console's userbase.
>>319785474
Not really, I'm not a big fan of the gamepad. In all honesty the controller pro should have been the standard and the gamepad an optional purchase.
>>319785494

>>319782083
Because the Gamecube sold like shit?
>>319785712
If you're going to force your consumers to buy a 100 dollar peripheral, at least have the decency to use it.
>>319785605
And I'm all for making them stop the gimmicks, look back at nes-gamecube, no big gimmicks with a ton of games that people still play with emulation or vc. The wii had a few great games but the other 70% was shovelware, the wii u has great potential still if they focus away from pushing the tablet down everyone's throat and make the games enjoyable like wwhd and ssb neither of which explicitly require the gamepad.
>>319785712
Who's mad? I'm just saying nobody gives a flying fuck about gimmicks. But me saying must have struck a chord with you faggot.
>>319785824
Touchscreen's are a nice extra, but being forced to used it for all controls? Fuck that nonsense, tactile buttons are the only way to go. Same reason I go with a Sansa Clip for an MP3 player instead of my phone or an ipod.

Nigga did you read? I was talking about optional buttons that you can stick onto the touchscreen somehow.
>>319785824
No. Those things never work right, they scratch the screen to shit and aren't nearly as responsive as actual buttons. So just give me actual fucking buttons.
The current layout used in most controllers is perfectly capable of being used for all sorts of games. Add more buttons if need be, but touch screen controls are just not the answer and they never will be.
when I think of video games, I feel nothing but a vast emptiness where joy once was
Can I just get a fucking home console without gimmicks, please? Some buttons, a couple of sticks, a d-pad... It doesn't even need to have rumble.
Just fucking quit with the tertiary bullshit and give me a fucking good game already. I don't want it to have motion controls. I don't need a touch pad. I don't want it to track my movements or respond to voice commands or for Donkey Kong to take a King Kong sized shit if I shake the controller JUST FUCKING GIVE ME SIMPLICITY GODDAMN YOU
>>319786374
Nigga, can you write? You literally wrote "Would your rather have a pure touchscreen or a a button-based controller"
>>319786316
How about we count how many of those are WiiU games instead of shifting from the original argument?
>>319785960
They use it all the time asshat. NOT FORCING DEVS TO USE IT WHEN IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE FOR THE GAME IS A GOOD THING, THIS IS WHAT YOU FUCKS COMPLAINED ABOUT DURING THE WII GEN YOU'RE PROVING THAT YOU'VE MADE UP YOUR MIND BEFORE ANY CONSIDERATIONS ARE MADE SO FUCK OFF AND STOP PRETENDING YOU HAVE ANY CAPACITY FOR RATIONAL THOUGHT
>>319786574
That's what most of the Wii U's first party lineup is but since you're triggered by a touchscreen you think everything is a gimmick.
>>319786697
You sound upset. Hey guys I think he's upset.

To be honest neither of those options appeal to me.
>>319786862

The nunchuk was bullshit though, and this looks like bullshit too. Kinect is bullshit. Sixaxis is bullshit. The touchpad on the ps4 was bullshit. Dual screens on the DS? Bullshit. Also fuck you.

You can clearly see all the Wii U games made by Nintendo on the fucking list dipshit. Almost all of them have the higher scores
>>319786697
The problem is devs don't even use it in a way that makes sense. For fuck's sake they could at least put your inventory or a map down there but half the games on the Wiiu don't even do that much.
Guys I found the secret new controller design for the NX, this thing will make you feel like you are in the game!
About two hours in Photoshop.
Would you?
>>319787719
No.
>>319787719
So nintendo wants me to forego my 70 inch led tv, so I can play on a 4-5 inch screen as my home console. Yeah, fuck that.
>>319770927
This post is hilarious.
Nintendo has literally not made a good standard controller since the fucking SNES.
N64 controller was an awkward abomination made for three handed people.
Gamecube had a pointlessly weird button layout that just made it a little bit more confusing.
Then it got worse.
Wii motion controler was never used in an interesting way that improved a game at any point during the entire lifecycle.
WiiU controller is much the same, and has never been used to do anything interesting. The one exception is Mario Maker, but even then it's only useful for the editing part.
I just hope it's got that wipe clean casing like the wii u pad does. It'll be easy for their target market to clean the crayon marks from
>>319787719
No because you are covering up the screen. Even if you have little deinty thumbs it's still in the way. Kind of fucked up with visual medium
>>319787719
It's not terrible but no, I don't think I would enjoy it. I'd get too frustrated from
1. Oily hands touching the screen all the fucking time
2. Cover shit up on accident and dying

I'm kinda thinking the success of the Wii was actually bad for Nintendo.
I mean, it came right after the GameCube, which was a console that had good hardware for that generation, and that one didn't fare that well. Then they started experimenting with gimmicks, the DS was a success, and the Wii did exceptionally well, although it was simply because of the novelty of motion controls for most people.
So now they've shifted focus to gimmicks with varying degrees of success. And it seems they'll keep doing that in hopes another Wii happens, and because that's what's gonna make them "different" from the competition.

>>319787719
If I don't have to use it while playing on the TV then sure
>>319788041
I agree, but at the same time, that "potential screen space" would just be unused either way, so I don't really see the problem in using it..
I really hope the screen has a decent resolution and a capacitive touchscreen.
>>319788579
>capacitive screen
Why?
I'm not really expecting this to be the whole thing. The gamepad is one of the biggest reasons for the Wii U's failure; nobody gives a shit about a touchscreen and it is awkward as fuck to look down at it while looking up at a TV. It is the most underutilized component of a system that is designed almost exclusively around it, and no one cares about the handful of gimmick games that do use it.

I see, another shitposting thread.

>I'm kinda thinking the success of the Wii was actually bad for Nintendo.
Agree with you wholeheartedly, nintendo captured the casual crowd and thought that gimmicks was the way to continue forward. Then the casual crowd returned to playing on their phones.

I don't want that membrane-like screen like on the 3DS bottom screen as the main screen

>>319787719
Finally, a handheld gaming system that I can use in public without being judged
>>319787719
Looks cool but what`s the point?
>>319788820
membrane screen > hard screen
at least theres an element of physical feedback to it
the only thing is multitouch would be necessary if they want customizable button layouts but i think there's such thing as resistive multitouch
>>319777453
Yeah because they blow their money having to make a shitty gimmick for the console instead. You think the wii u gamepad can just be made for pennies?
>>319789313
Dude, that screen would get so scratched so quickly
>>319776160
Get less pussy hands

>>Every nintendo console has had some stupid gimmick instead of just being a normal console that can play modern games
But before the Wii, every Nintendo console was just a normal console. It's only relatively recently that Nintendo has started doing this forced gimmick BS.
Hopefully this patent goes unused and the NX will be focused just on games.
>>319784465
Almost every Nintendo controller deviated from the norm, you don't feel that way because they became the norm.
>>319789594
Every nintendo console has had a gimmick. Some just end up being so good it becomes an industry standard rather than something you look back on and realize how stupid it was and they are trying to ride off that same mentality hoping something new will catch on.

>>319774170
They are just mad because they have had 2 games spanning across 2 platforms (demons souls and bloodborne)
>>319778550
>>319790242
You are forgetting that the NES was the first console wIth a d-pad, the snes had the same number of buttons as the genesis, but the genesis had all buttons on the front, while snes had the conventional now four and two shoulder buttons, and the N64 controller was weird because of the analog stick.
>>319789313
Multitouch has haptic feedback now tho
Ever play Cytus with it on? Is great
Also just use an S pen for precision

Hmm...
I think Nintendo may really be on to something here
Maybe the controller is interchangable with the option of having faceplate that is a touch screen and the ability to change layouts
A lot of this stuff is adding up to make a whole lot of sense
