Alright boys, time to speculate/bitch/whine
>It's a new controller for NX that also works as own portable handheld device with Streetpass function included.
OP, you idiot, the patent isn't for a handheld. The Patent is for the screen stupid.
Why can't anyone read patents?

You bore me /v/

>Still only one slide pad.
Fuck them.
>>344035730
Why the fuck do you need another Circle Pad for? Are you fucked?
>>344035967
Camera control? Aiming? More options in general?
Isn't NX an Hybrid?
>>344036994
People think so but I'm assuming it's just an overclocked Wii U with no pad.
>hmm...
>reeeeee!
>*sob*
>wii U 2
>new new 3ds
LOL, nintendo is finished
>>344032998
That is literally the bottom half of a 3DS.
>>344032998
If it's gonna be like the WiiU pad but can be used independently of the home console, I'm 100% for it.
gonna be the controller most likely. looks uncomfy as shit.
>They removed the trees in the foreground and the one in the background
Nintendo is already downgrading their games
WOW, SO INNOVATIVE
BRAVO NINTENDO
>>344032998
I read the article ten times but I don't get how that is supposed to be a touch screen with a peripheral attached to it. Help?
>>344039206
I'm guessing the touch screen slides down the bottom? Either slides down to reveal a second screen, or comes off completely? I don't know man, it's Nintendo. They're Bad Ideas: The Company.

Your phone connects to the top and there will be a backside interface like a circle pad on the back of the device
>>344032998
>new patent
Ok so who cares?
Companies have patents for shit they dont use all the time
>>344035967
Are you trying to take a step back 20 years?
>>344035967
Probably shooters
But i thought we established the wiimote was fine for that
>>344032998
Reading the patent it seems to me like they want to have a core handheld device (the touch screen) that you can slide into different peripherals, including the one show in your pic but also one more suited to console gameplay (it specifically says the analog pad may instead be an analog stick). Basically trading the ability to put it in your pocket for comfort.
The patent also talks a lot about a vibrator in the device and how it interacts with the speakers.
>>344040852
If they expect that thing to be the NX' main controller there had better be another analog whatever. Because the only thing they'd be able to do for camera control at that point would be gyro and I'm not going to wave the goddamn controller around every time I want to turn the goddamn camera. Aiming a weapon with it is one thing but come the fuck on.
>>344032998
STILL no second stick
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>344041183
Why do they always go like one step foward but twelve back? "New 3DS" had the little nub. While a bit annoying I'd not mind them keeping that over just a second slide pad. I'm so sick of Nintendo being retarded. Like sure I hate them now but some tiny part of me in the back recesses of my mind wishes they'd get their head out of their ass.

>Single Touch Screen handheld
thank god. two screens is fucking stupid.
>>344041732
I will eat your children.
>>344039798
This may actually work
>from 2 to 1 screen
Nintendo truly is innovative.
>>344032998
>downgrading the 3DS
I wonder what the name will be in the end
Nintendo Half DS?
