There's no way this is fucking real...right?
desu
Great, another expensive controlling raising the cost of the system.
How much market research do they do?
Silly gimmicks like these don't sell SHIT anymore. Nobody wants this. Nobody. Everyone just wants a powerful console with a non "Just fuck my shit up" controller and good first party Nintendo games on it.
Why is that so hard to understand? I don't just "not care" about crap like this, I hate it.
>>331423795
The controller IS the system.
>>331423852
>good first party Nintendo games
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA
You know you can't have a fucking screen behind the buttons right?
Other than the screen being obscured by your hand, the controller's shape is perfectly fine
So your just going to shitpost this everyday to create a mentality that everything about it is bad right fuckboi?
>december 11 2015
>>331423940
Yes you can.
>tfw you will never be a part of the transparent hand demographic that this is obviously marketed towards
>>331423535
>no one sees the third best alternative
>physical buttons that are transparent
I'd be fine with a refined version of the Wii U controller.
Though i'm about 90% sure the NX is going to be some kind of handheld with optional home console functionality.
>>331423852
Don't worry
Sony and Microsoft will find a way to make a rip-off anyway
The touch Pad and Google Glass integration already gurantee's this
:^)
How do you want your controller senpai?
>>331423852
I want this lol
the wii u pad was the comfiest thing ever. Playing on my bed is the greatest gimmick ever created. I think you are pretty out of touch grandpa.
>>331423535
>but muh FAKE they said
fucking BTFO
>>331423940
why did you post if you weren't going to think first
jeez
>>331423852
You should put it on your head that it'll kill Nintendo more to just shove another underpowered PC of a console
Their gimmicks are never the problem, especially with the multiple options people have for controllers
The problem is the lack of third party support
>>331424068
At least there's will be optional and peripheral, like always.
>>331424196
>The problem is the lack of third party support
Hrmm, I wonder what one of those factors could be.....
>>331424128
Anon you aware that's a photoshopped image of what the patent controller will look like
Patents are never the final design
>>331424068
Isn't Ninten ripping on Sony right now though?
>>331424196
That is Nintendo's fault as well. They discourage third party developers from making games for their console by having these bullshit gimmicks and by having a computer that is so underpowered that you can't port your games to it without reprogramming everything.
It's not like devs don't want their games on Nintendo's console.
I hope this is fake. People only use 'good enough' virtual buttons on phones because they're the size of a pack of gum. Which is great for non vidya reasons, but only tolerated when gaming because portable controllers are annoying to carry.
Dedicated consoles need dedicated controls.
>>331424109
I want to exterminate every single comfy fag.
>>331424196
It's half way
Some developers don't want to the bother with the gimmick
But that's perfectly fine, they don't have to
Then you have the big scumbags like EA who announced Mass Effect Trilogy for everything except Wii U before Mass effect 3 even comes to the Wii U
And it's a shame because it was a really good fucking port, it shows that third parties can easily make games for the Wii U without needing to use the gimmicks
Third parties are fucking lazy
>>331423927
You clearly didn't play any Wii-U Games.
Mario Kart 8, was the best Mk to date and smash comes pretty close.
Lego City Undercover was pretty ace, if you like the Lego Games.
Honorable mentions are Splatoon, Mario Party, Mario Maker, Super Mario 3D Lands.
If you don't like Wii Games that because you have 0 friends who want to visit you and play games.
>>331423535
>smartphone buttons
JUST
>>331423535
That bottom one is fucking impossible. The buttons need to touch some kind of circuitry. There can't just be a screen under them.
>>331423535
Why are you faggots still falling for this shit?
>>331423852
>Everyone just wants a powerful console with a non "Just fuck my shit up" controller and good first party Nintendo games on it.
Then why did the Gamecube do so poorly?
>>331424276
>>331424351
I didn't say it's not Nintendo's fault, they obviously need to tie the knot
I'm saying the gimmicks of their console was never a problem, people just want to hate them by default
Again, there are Wii and Wii U games that didn't force the heavy gimmicks and worked perfectly fine, like the Mass Effect 3 port
>>331424864
LEEEEETLE DEEEESCS
>>331424004
No you can't you fucking retard. The buttons have to be connected to a PCB connector. You can't have a screen magically float underneath buttons.
Have you ever seen the inside of a controller in your life?
>>331424864
>good first party Nintendo games on it.
Not unfinished shit like Sunshine or WW
>>331424820
this
Please tell me these threads don't get deleted. Fucking Nintendogaf.
>>331424351
Devs don't want their games on Ninty systems because 3rd party games just doesn't sell, with the exception of very few massive franchises of course. Dragon Quest/Monster Hunter...
>>331424057
Are you retarded that's option two.
>>331423535
the most stupid shit I've seen in a while
>>331424057
Do you have transparent thumbs?
>>331423852
>Silly gimmicks like these don't sell SHIT anymore. Nobody wants this. Nobody. Everyone just wants a powerful console with a non "Just fuck my shit up" controller and good first party Nintendo games on it.
Worked real well for the Gamecube, didn't it?
>People are still falling for patents
>Implying Nintendo can suddenly make the controller when patents don't get approved until 2 years
>Implying they haven't already made the NX controller
You guys are really fucking dumb
>>331423535
>transparent sticks
they... what?!?
no srsly. they WHAT!
>>331424746
That sums up Wii U fans pretty well.
>y-y-you just don't have friends, these mediocre games are made to fuck around doing nothing
>>331424902
How are either of those unfinished?
>>331423852
The controllers fine though
Are you fucking blind?
>HURR TOUCH SCREEN WAAAAAH
>>331425189
They could be dragon dildos for all I care. The whole thing is retarded
>>331423535
>cross platform nintendo nx / ios / android
nintendo is dead and im glad
>>331424864
They fucked up Mario and Zelda. Melee, Prime and GX couldn't carry the console on their own.
>>331423535
JUST
>>331425237
Sunshine is glitchy as fuck, lacks polish and most missions are clearly filler.
WW was obviously rushed.
>>331425237
C'mon man. I love Wind Waker, but just having Jabun hand you Nayru's Pearl instead of doing another dungeon was complete horse shit.
>>331424746
You lost all credibility when you gave mario party an honorable mention
I really don't fucking care
I just want a controller I can fucking hold normally
Which that controller does
Thats all that matters honestly, Nintendo can have all the gimmicks they want, just don't fuck me in the ass with retarded controller sizes
The Wiimote is fucking cancer, and the Gamepad is too fucking huge
But this shit is perfect
And I'm pretty sure that's what people want in the end, so you guys should stop nitpicking something this retarded, especially since even dumbasses like Nintendo would realize the screen would be obscured by your hand
>>331425515
Did you skip the part where he implied Sm4sh came close to being the best?
>take a patent they will never use
>photoshop an image together in about 2 minutes
>HOLY FUCK NINTENDO IS DEAD
>>331425515
Bowser Party, for what it was is still fantastic though
>>331423852
Because they stumbled into a gold mine with the Wii and have been trying to recreate it ever since, when the reason it was successful wasn't because of the gimmicky controller but because they marketed it to an untapped audience, which since the Wii have become disinterested in video games after realizing that the Wii was a gimmicky piece of shit.
Neo Nintendo is shit. Reggie is just as much of a scumbag businessman as Kotick and Riccitiello.
But they have something their competitors don't have. A legion of rabid fan boys unlike any other. Swathes of autistic man children, with nostalgia goggles permanently affixed to them.
Why does this keep happening? Why, isn't it obvious? It's your fault, NintendoGAF.
>>331423973
>Other than the screen being obscured by your hand
kek that's a pretty damn big flaw though
The leak is clearly fake, calm yourself.
The retard faking it even forgot to include the handles clearly shown in the patent, but copied everything else 1:1.
There's no way Nintendo would be retarded enough to show an exact diagram of the controller in their patent application.
>>331423852
what is Nintendo Wii?
Honestly in my opinion, its a good idea if the controller was a handheld and nothing more. They can only have physical RL buttons and sticks and have the rest of the buttons part of the HUD for the game making for custom layouts. But thats just me, even I don't like using the on-screen buttons on android games.
what is it with nintendo and retarded controllers and gimmicks?
>>331425590
>Pretty close
He's saying it's next to Melee, which it is fuckboi
Learn to read Melee fag
>>331423535
>>331425446
So it's not bullshit?
Jesus, Nintendo.
>>331425743
Are you retarded?
>>331425636
>Stumbled on a gold mine with the Wii and trying to recreate it since
More like, they were going to fucking die because of the mediocre N64 and GameCube sales and needed to Innovate to stay relevant
>>331424283
This. Yall fucking pleebs if you think this is what the final design will look like.
Dipshits think you can put holes in lcd screens...where gave you ever seen that done?
>>331423852
>he thinks its real
>controlling something with no physical buttons
Jesus fucking Christ NO
>>331425718
I don't give a shit about Melee, 4 is fucking garbage, it only beats Brawl in content. 64 is also a better game.
>>331425636
>All that falseflagging
How's that 40mlion PS4 sales?
Your pretending it's the best shit in existance when it barely touches every other gen
Is there any ACTUAL evidence of this being real?
>>331424109
>>331424707
You can't even fucking move further than 7 feet, so it's literally useless, I can do that with any platform if the device needs to be in the same room
>>331425884
>B-B-BUT SONY
Ah, the typical defense of the Nintentoddler.
Jokes on you pleb, I'm PC Master race.
>>331425653
You expect 12 year olds to know what a patent actually is?
/v/ does nothing but shitpost without rational thinking
That's why filters exist but they still bypass it
>>331425446
>People also continue to ignore the fact that the B button is on the right side, when Nintendo has NEVER put their B button on the right
>>331425929
None. People are just being reactionary to be reactionary.
>>331423535
When does Nintendo just go 3rd party and make games for other consoles? Think about it, everyone wants their games but many people don't want their machines. They have to hook people in with gimmicks that are hit or miss to compete or nobody will care anyways if they just have a normal system.
>>331423535
>called this happening in 2010 here
>nobody listened
>>331425929
No.
The closest thing we have is this >>331425446 which is clearly fake.
Is anyone else confused why people are shitting themselves over this?
Its a handheld, except the screen encompasses the entire device instead of just some of it. What is so tragic about this?
I'd assume this is the handheld version of the NX they were talking about.
>>331425884
He didn't even mention Sony.
>>331426007
Because they make more money being 1st party due to licensing, dumbass.
>>331426063
The VMU returns
>>331426008
>still not happening
faggot
>>331425559
You don't even know how big it is though, and if they expect you to look at it to see what's going on I assume it's going to be HUEG
>>331424196
I don't see the problem with directly competing.
>Removing gimmicks allows easy 3rd part ports.
>Removing kiddy image that no longer appeals to anyone will allow casuals to buy the system without social stigma.
>3rd party plus 1st party games means it will be the only platform with a reasonable amount of exclusives.
>Along with PC it is now the only platform with free online play.
If Nintendo were to directly compete it would be the obvious system to buy. Gimmicks are what kill Nintendo and ensure they will get no 3rd party support. I will also add that there is no way Nintendo or any company is stupid enough to actually go with the concept in OP image.
>>331426115
They already went there with Wii U though
>The average time it takes to obtain a patent from the patent office at this time is about 32 months or a little under 3 years.
>>>>>People believe a patent in 2015 will be the controller for a 2016 console
>>331425743
It means it IS fake, dumbass.
>>331426007
Why do that when Sony is much better at it amd xbox is also competing there?
As a handheld, the idea is actually pretty good, a comfortable controller that you play games on.
Though it's obviously fake.
>>331426271
>As a handheld, the idea is actually pretty good
No.
>>331424864
little shitty discs
piracy was the shit back then, literally everyone had pirated games on their PS2 since it was so easy
>>331426341
Why?
It'd be like the Vita but more comfortable.
>>331426405
But my fingers cover the screen like when I squeeze the Loli's boobs in Panty Quest 7
>>331426159
gimmicks are what saved the wii and ds/3ds dumbshit
nintendo without gimmicks would just be irrelevant altogether
>>331426405
You mean because of the grips?
That makes it less portable, shit idea for handheld.
Also the buttons on screen is idiotic. It's wasting battery and increasing price for something that my fingers will be covering.
>>331424898
You're not thinking outside of the box, the world isn't so limited like that.
>>331426517
Games are designed for the handhelds that play them. The majority of the gameplay would take place in the center, with peripheral stuff in the background,
>>331426532
Grips can be an attachment.
>>331426517
YOUR FINGERS COVER THE EDGES OF THE SCREEN
try holding a controller you fucking autist and take careful note of how much of the controller face you're actually covering
so amazing....
>>331426529
It was 1 time fluke.
Right gimmick in right time.

>Mario Kart 8, was the best Mk to date
>>331426591
>Grips can be an attachment.
They already sell those for handhelds, it's nothing new. And it still decreases portability. And the screen is still retarded.
>>331426529
Games saved the Wii, DS and 3DS. Especially the 3DS, no one gives a shit about 3D and literally everyone plays with it turned off. Without support, attachment rates would be disastrous just like Wii U's.
>>331426159
i cant get behind this
noone wants a playstation or xbox from nintendo
>>331426635
You really are stupid, aren't you?
You don't really understand that it's not about the amount sold, but the money you get? PSP sold a lot, but it was still a new technology that cost Sony a shit ton of money to produce, while 3DS is a fairly cheap hardware where every single sold unit gives Nintendo tons of money.
If you want to shit at a company, at least shit using your brain sometimes.
>>331426635
3DS is performing "poorly" because of the mobile age.
People can play games on phones now, so people looking for subpar mobile experiences have simply flocked to that. However, 3DS still captures the tens of millions of people that want something more than just casual mobile gaming.
That market still exists, and isn't disappearing.
>>331426604
They should cover nothing you retard.
>>331426517
> fingers cover the screen
So what? On any other device that portion of the screen simply wouldn't be there. Devs can now make use of a wider FOV while still maintaining all important information center screen
>>331426638
>>DOOMED SINCE 1889
Hm....
>>331426835
They cover your meaty insides.

It's real, and it's most likely happening.
>>331423535
Nintendo will be fine; they're the PC of consoles.
- They belong to a different market so they don't have to compete directly with Sony and Microsoft,
- They have a ferociously loyal fanbase
- They only need to make four games: a Mario, a Zelda, a Smash and a Mario Party to stay afloat.
- They dominate the handheld console market.
I see Sony, Microsoft and Valve going bankrupt first.
>>331426141
Nigga it's the same exact fucking patent
>>331426638
>>331426894
I'm pretty sure Nintendo can do whatever the fuck they want and still have money for the next 200 years
>>331423713
Nope. Given that the picture featured is something thrown together on something like Adobe Illustrator, probably just a proof of concept for someone's meeting, I'd say the actual chance of anything looking like that is zero, seriously. That is not a 'serious' technical, or even a sales image. It's something some one has made 'just in case' and more likely to look busy at work.
>>No.331423852
No steady on there my 'change scares me' friend. Read above. While I'm sure someone is pocketing the concept away in their tool box, and the technology 'may' appear in some form, the idea that what is shown there is laughable.
Seriously, images like this are probably run off in their millions all over the world every day and mean nothing. I wish they'd release more of these gems just to read the reactions.
>>331423852
>Silly gimmicks like these don't sell SHIT anymore

>>331425096
>>331424864
The Gamecube was competing with a console that has had a DVD player and a huge selection of games. No matter how many 10/10 games the Gamecube had, there was nothing to pull in the core adult audience that the ps2 had. The market is still there for core Nintendo games, they just need to grow up as a company.
>>331427000
>more resource-hogging
Here's hoping they optimize their system
>prone to failure/damage?
Explain how? Bigger screen, more screen to break? Sounds retarded.
>so what if 20% of the screen is useless
It adds peripheral vision and allows the use of virtual buttons on the edge of the screen for menus or quick action taskbars. Besides whats actually wrong if 20% of the screen is "useless" if the screen is 60% percent bigger than a normal handheld
>>331427005
>free form screens exist

Christ
>>331427128
When the Wii was new, everyone was excited for the motion controls.
It's just like 3d movies.
>>331426779
>3DS is performing "poorly" because of the mobile age.
You're fucking retarded. Phone gaming was already big in Japan when the NDS and PSP were released, yet their sales weren't harmed because it's an entirely different market. It's as asinine as claiming console gaming is shrinking due to PC.
What's so hard to accept that 3DS sales are poor because it's a poor product?
Think of the cleaning this shit will require. I already have to wipe my 3DS screens daily.
>>331427005

Well, if you only count Vita. But if we compare it to its real competitors - mobile phone, nintendo fucked in a long run.

>>331427128

>>331427302
Maybe you should try washing your hands, you filthy cunt.
>>331427005
We know that's Nintendo's direction
But not the controller
That controller leak is fake, patents are never final and the "leak" is using the same exact one
Omny literally tells you everything wrong with it, and he's a photoshop master

Denial hurts.
>>331426405
I can still fit a vita in my pocket and it has buttons.
>>331426529
Dumb luck saved the Wii. It will never happen again and hurt Nintendo in the long run by giving it a bad image. Having more games saved the ds/3ds in comparison to the PSP and Vita. Having games would also be a good way to save a future Nintendo console. The Wii U failed due to the bad image from the Wii and poor marketing combined with having no games at launch.
>>331426732
How is it not already just a less successful PS or Xbox? Splatoon is the first game I can think of that is actually better as a result of gimmicks and that took two generations. Nothing would actually change other than having the chance to get 3rd party ports and not have the console die early.
>>331427413
Yeah, the controller itself is fake, made based on the patent. But Nintendo is going to use free form displays most likely, hopefully it doesn't look that awful.
>>331427005
We know Nintendo is using a Freeform led screen
It's not about that
It's about the controller
>>331427537
I doubt they're going to use it for the controller.
Most likely for the new handheld.
>>331427374
>60 FPS
Found the sonycuck
No excuse, PC, Xbox and the fucking Wii U can do it
>>331427320
They can have complicated shapes..
>>331423535
whats the point of transparant buttons anyway when your finger is on them?
Also Nintendo isnt retarded like sony.
They wont make the "action" screen the same as the touch screen.
Unlike Sony with the Shita.
>>331423852
>gimmicks dont sell
Tell that to VR.
>>331426894
That chart is bullshit:
1. If you make an equivalent chart depicting Sony's consoles you're going to get the same phenomenon sans the Wii peak
2. The WiiU was launched on November 2012; it only has 3 years and four months. It's unfair to compare it with the fucking NES, released in 1983.
3. Nintendo's sales falling since the NES makes no sense.
>>331427443
Nobody's denying they are using the freeform screen
It's the fucking controller
>>331427639
60 fps is far less cinematic than 30 though
30 > 60 for games. Even BASED Miyazaki, creator of the greatest video game franchise to ever exist, says so.
ITT: Shitposters uniting
>>331427514
>How is it not already just a less successful PS or Xbox?
I'm not really sure how to answer this. I guess you could use wikipedia. Its a web encyclopedia that holds all kinds of information regarding just about everything. Typing Wii or Wii U (two of nintendo's last home consoles) will tell you everything you need to know about them.
>>331427639
60fps is an unnecessary gimmick that adds nothing to the experience.
>wiiu can do it
Maybe because their games are so simple and basic, my calculator could run them at 60fps
>>331424814
Idk Obama, my iPhone 6s has the ability to know not only my touch but how hard I am pressing and read that info without a direct line from my finger to the circuitry.
>>331427762
>Also Nintendo isnt retarded like sony
Nah. They're worse. At least Sony learned from the PS3 disaster and was smart enough to taking advantage of Microsoft's E3 fuckup
We know Nintendo's using a freeform LCD display
However, it's noted for handhelds
So this is either The 3DS replacement, or the handheld hybrid of the NX
Remember that the NX being hybrid means there's going to be a standard controller
>>331423535
fake ass fuck
>>331427925
>60fps is an unnecessary gimmick that adds nothing to the experience.
Why am I getting mad at b8?
>>331427254
>It adds peripheral vision
yeah, let me take my fingers off the buttons to focus on the part of the screen that has a fucking analog sticking out of it
>Besides whats actually wrong if 20% of the screen is "useless" if the screen is 60% percent bigger than a normal handheld
because that 20% of useless display uses up resources that could be used for something that has some actual value
>Explain how? Bigger screen, more screen to break? Sounds retarded.
If you drop it on a hard surface, damage that would otherwise simply create a crack/dent in the cover of a regular hadheld device will possibly ruin the entire display of this abomination.
Not to mention, an elliptic screen that covers basically the entire front of the device sounds like an absolute nightmare to fix.
>>331427925
>Maybe because their games are so simple and basic, my calculator could run them at 60fps
Maybe its time Sony realizes their hardwares actual limits then
>>331427814

PS$ - 40 mil (launched 1 year later)
>UNFAIR
Nah.
>1. If you make an equivalent chart depicting Sony's consoles

>>331427992
Explain what do 60fps offer in comparison to 30fps (other than a weird feeling)
Framerate stability is what actually matters. I could actually argue that games play better at 30fps
Nintendo's using the newest LCD screen and with how much Mobile has developed, buttons are going to be responsive so that's not an issue
Your hands obscuring it however is going to be a problem but if the games focus on the middle portion(assuming this is the real final version) it'll be fine
Also if you guys aren't stupid, this is for a handheld
>>331427898
My point is that the experience you get is still the same. The best games do not use their gimmicks or use them in unobtrusiveness ways like Mario Galaxy. With a few exceptions almost all of their games would work just as well if not better on a more standard console. The gyroscope is the only thing I see as a benefit for shooting games.

>>331429137
A game that is running a stable 60 can dip to 30 when shit loads in and action happens without ruining immersion. A 30 or (25.5 fps console game), is going to dip every time into the teens when action happens or shit loads in.
At this point, if you are still advocating 30 fps as fine or an acceptable standard then you are beyond retarded.

>2. The WiiU was launched on November 2012; it only has 3 years and four months. It's unfair to compare it with the fucking NES, released in 1983.

I think the sales falling for both platforms are normal and coincide with the gens where said platforms faced significant competition for the first time.
The SNES saw the rise of the Sega Genesis
The N64 saw the rise of the Playstation
the Playstation 3 saw the rise of the Xbox 360
The WiiU saw the rise of the Playstation 4
And so on.
>>331427098
Uh no? You act like Nintendo is sitting on hundreds of billions.
nintendo always strives for innovation
that means doing shit that makes people ask why the fuck you would do that
and doesn't mean 'do literally the same fucking thing forever' as Sony and MS do.
that doesn't mean that Nintendo always has GOOD ideas, the Wii U was proof of that even if it did have a game or two that used the idea well.
there's still a laundry list of reasons for 3rd parties to ignore Nintendo, for one thing Sony and MS will actually give them press because they don't have their own Mario/Zelda/Pokemon to publicize. For another thing they don't have to do tons of mental gymnastics to figure out how to use Nintendo's weird bullshit in a meaningful way.
All that said, I still don't believe this is the real Nintendo controller. After the Wii U you would think that they realize the problems inherent with putting video feed onto a controller from a system, especially the problems with doing this on multiple controllers. This controller would suggest otherwise, and really wouldn't make much sense as it only takes everything the Wii U did and builds on the parts that no one liked.
Overall, the Doubt level is very high, both for this being the true NX pad, and for this being at all successful if it is indeed the true NX pad.

>>331430354
Nintendo has been around much longer than any other company in video games today, it makes me wonder if they will ever exit video games and go into new markets again.
>>331430354
That's not necessarily a bad thing. Nintendo's consoles and platforms are niche, just like PC gaming, so they always will have less sales than the mainstream options (the PS4 and the Xbox One).
>>331423535
Nobody though that MAYBE, this is a market research?
We know nintendo is working with free form lcd, we know the pantent, so to test water they "leak" ( like every leak nowadays) this fake to test public response.
>>331430594
PC - open platform and didn't have exclusive hardware vendor. Everyone have a PC and anybody can play games on it.
Shrinking fanbase - death in the longrun. 2 gens and nintendo finished.

PROS:

>Get to play Nintendo games without gimmicky controls (unless they go fill Miyamoto with the Kinect/Move)
>Get to play Nintendo games with modern graphics

THIS CAN'T BE REAL
I REFUSE TO BELIEVE IT
>>331423535
Its an interesting idea if you absolutely had to see the buttons and the screen at the same time and for some reason had a very small maximum area to work with.
A better design than this would be the controls under the screen so that nothing is blocked. The controls are not difficult and can easily be manipulated by feel alone.
The screen shown does not seem bigger than the 3DSXL, it seems wider but narrower and your hands will also be blocking our parts of the screen.
If they want a wider screen but not a wider system they can easily keep the same clamshell format and have the top section be significantly wider than the bottom half and close in on both sides.
If this is a controller for a console then they can just scrap it because screens on controllers is a stupid idea.
>>331423713
it's fan art off the patent design, companies can still change how this would look in production
>>331431457
Also transparent buttons wouldn't help at god damned all.
Absolutely retarded, not only does the screen shape obscure what you'd normally see, your fucking hands obstruct your view most of the time.
The idea is beyond stupid which is why I totally expect Nintendo to go with it.
>>331430957
I personally don't give a shit about Nintendo as a developer. The Nintendo DS is my favorite handheld of all time, and the only Nintendo title I played (and liked) was NSMB.
>>331428556
Not him, but I get the feeling at 60fps of a plastic lag. Anti-lag, really. It feels like everything visual is speed up by just so much that it's noticeable but not significant. Plastic detail overload.
I admit I don't have much experience with it so I might not have given myself the opportunity to get used to it.
>>331423535
>screen on controller
>buttons on the screen, blocking parts of the screen
>hands will block even more of the screen
The design is fucking retarded. More proof that people who don't play vidya or don't know shit about vidya need to stop designing shit for vidya.
>>331431620
You should see their sales figures. Their handheld has always dominated and it feeds their console development which peaked with the NES and the 64 was the most competitive console since then.
IRC the only functionality of the controller was to interact with your amibo while you play.
If this is real then i am fucking done with Nintendo. How do they think these are good ideas? I thought the Wii U was the stupidest thing that they would do and they had learned their lesson. Just go back and do what you were doing in the game cube era, we don't want retarded gimmicks, just make a normal console that is as powerful as the PS4 and Xbone that also has your exclusives and people will buy it, is that really so hard for them to grasp?
>>331423535
why would it matter if the buttons were transparent if your fingers would be on them anyway?
>>331431682

Considering even Nintendo failed to utilize the gamepad in a meaningful way, I'd say the concept is a failure.

>>331433485

I think you meant to say "Is a meme." VR is a "meme" and isn't popular until lots of people actually own one.
Currently, almost no one owns one, because almost none of them are released yet.
>>331433485
>VR is popular
A bunch of internet and marketing hype doesn't mean popular. Maybe you can call it popular a year or two down the line once it's on the market and average consumers (not enthusiasts) actually give a shit about it, but that's not even an option yet.
>>331433582
I don't care if it's overpowered or underpowered. I just care if it has good games. Plus whether the gimmick is shitty or not is an opinion. For all you know it can befun. Go take your graphics whoring elsewhere.

Well its on the internet with no source from an anonymous poster so im inclined to believe it

If anyone wants to know why Nintendo does shit like this look up "Blue Ocean Strategy." This is Nintendo's business ideology. It basically is about capturing uncontested market space and says that going against competitors is bad. Nintendo first employed this with the DS, then the Wii and it made them a shit ton of money. They tried to capture that success with the Wii U, yet it didn't work. They are trying to capture the success with the NX, and it won't work. Why? Because this is not uncontested market space.
>>331424746

>>331423535
This design is fine you whiny manchildren. It still has all the buttons of a traditional controller and it eliminates the size issue the Wii U controller had, so even you fags with your limp wrists and babby hands can hold it. And they're obviously not going to put any important game information where your hands will be.
>>331435228
The "throw shit at the wall" part is how they find that space.
In terms of patents, any sufficiently large company does the same shit - patent every idea you have.
>>331433110
>Somebody was so asshurt he dug up patent after patent
They're both fucking idiots in this scenario, just because you're the winner of the special Olympics it doesn't mean you're not still retarded.
>>331435374
The DS is still the best selling handheld of all time though and just behind the PS2 in terms of consoles. So whatever they did, it did work.
I think the market just finds control gimmicks stupid and useless. That's why no one cares about the WiiU, the Kinect and the Playstation Move.
On the other hand people are getting on the VR bandwagon. Probably that's due to the VR handsets providing a new layer of immersion. Meanwhile the WiiU controller, the Kinect and the Move were just attempts to fix something it isn't broken.

>>331435996
You know, I'm pessimistic enough about Nintendo at this moment that I don't doubt for a second that this might be AT LEAST a prototype. It might not be the final design, but when the NX gets here I'm pretty sure we'll be seeing a slightly modified version of that.
However, no matter what happens, I think this next generation is going to be Nintendo's "TRANSFORMATION" into a VERY different company. If you thought the "core" gamers got left behind with the Wii and Wii U, I have a feeling you haven't seen anything yet.
>>331436316
Not unless they actually commit to releasing free apps featuring popular characters, addicting gameplay, and are packed with microtransactions, because that is exactly where the common people market is right now.
>>331425559
How does it feel to be a manlet with baby hands.
>dude just cover the screen with your hands lmao
>>331423852
Nintendo can't get away with that strategy because they've alienated the audience that would be interested in the PS4/Xbox by running with shit gimmicks since the Wii, not directly competing in terms of hardware/software with Microsoft and Sony, and staggering the launch dates of their consoles.
For better or worse (worse), they're stuck with their shitty gimmick consoles now. They'll never compete in the way they did with the Gamecube ever again.
>>331436491
That was proven to be fake though.

Which also proved to be a failing strategy.
>>331436983
Honk I assume, which makes no sense but it's all I can think of. Honestly there's not many functions I can think of that would justify an on-screen button that can't be performed with the actual buttons or combinations thereof.

fucking awful. why can't nintendo just for once create a normal console with a normal controller, using a normal disc format without any of this useless gimmick shit? who the fuck wants this? don't they have target research or something to prevent this gimmick shit from happening? REEEEEEEEEEEEE
