Nintendo NX Controller Leak Was a Hoax

Nintendo NX Controller Leak Was a Hoax

Good news, or bad news, it depends on your taste for controllers. For better or worse, the leaker of the supposed NX controller recently uploaded a video on Reddit that pretty much revealed that he just committed one of the funniest and at the same time, cruel forms of trolling around the net. The supposed leaked NX prototype controller was actually a very elaborate hoax and in a time when Nintendo enthusiasts are wary of what kind of gimmicks Nintendo would pull off with it’s next console, it may have not been a funny prank.

I don’t know if I feel either happy or disappointed… probably more of the former, as this controller looked anything but comfortable, either way, I was willing to give it a try and pass judgement afterwards.

In any case, check out the video that the leaker posted, explaining the process on how he proceed to make a 3D version of the controller and composite it into a real life photograph using elaborate methods, along with some obvious trolling below:

So how do you feel about this news, are you happy that this controller is not the official controller, or were you one of those who got excited when you saw this prototype, let us know in the comments below!
