I mean, if it's real, that looks really attractive.
Form factor is off the hook. Starting to wish it's real actually. Face buttons are a big deal in only a handful of games, most games these days can be easily controlled by two sticks, triggers, shoulder buttons and using touch screen for menu/inventory and that kinda stuff. This is especially true for a lot of big Nintendo franchises like Mario, Zelda, Splatoon, Pikmin etc.
For Smash and other button-intense games, just support the Pro Controller and GC controller.

Yes.. it can? They made the shell with a 3D printer. We don't have the actual thing in our hands so who is to say that's even actually glass and not just a piece of hard plastic cut to fit around the sticks to look like glass? Then you get some electrical tape and a label maker.

I'm not saying that it's 100% 3D printed but you could absolutely make something like this with one.



Tell me why that is out of the realm of possibility. I think that if it is fake, then it's far more likely someone actually made a physical thing than photoshopping it. I mean it's pretty obvious that real or fake it's an actual physical object there. I don't see any reason to think it couldn't have been 3D printed.

I'm not that knowledgeable when it comes to 3D printing but can you actually 3D print a smooth, reflective surface like the screen with a standard, consumer-level 3D printer? I mean, theoretically speaking, the reflections could be photoshopped but if they are, they're photoshopped really well.
 
Why are the analog sticks different colors in different leaks?
Only the one with the tree is real. Cross is fake

No, that's wrong. 3D printers don't work that well. You'd be able to tell from rough edges.
 
Nintendo of Australia faked the moon landing?

I don't know why but that cracked me up!!

Wow, this thread is so great. Who cares if it is real or not? Just keep on being silly.

and it is real. A friend of mine is from nintendo of sweden and he took his suicide pill right now because he failed to protect the secret of the NX.

As far as screen space, it's beautiful.

However, there is no substitute for the tactile nature of mechanical components. There's a reason touch keyboards are wholly, completely inferior to actual keyboards. Are there "haptic" buttons? Are there buttons on the back? Does the system support a classic controller?

So many questions, yet so long until E3.
 
I'm still not convinced. If this was a real product still being developed aka prototype, why would the confidential sticker be in English? Shouldn't it be in Japanese, because Nintendo is a japanese company? Whomever is leaking these isn't thinking of turning the actual unit on, or showing anything of import. The first picture of the white unit I am not convinced, as there were inconsistencies with the screen not illuminating light correctly.

This may be a copy cat reproduction and made to look like a nice 'leak' of the white model. I dont want this to be true :(

So can sean give us a fucking answer and clear some shit up, or is he/she just going to give us ":)" and think that helps the fucking conversation.

Wish we had some legit sources doing work so we can debunk this move on, or at least confirm it's existence and stop the charade.
