Last week was full of rumors about the future of video game consoles. Sony PlayStation 4.5 prepare a compatible 4K, while the NX, which should replace the Wii U, was talking to her through pictures surfaced online, showing … its handle. We did echo the latest salvo pictures “stolen” surfaced online, wondering if it was all true. The response has fallen since. No, this was all a fake, very elaborate.
A first false in mind facetious
Of the two waves of published photographs, the “photographed” joystick was very similar to the drawings accompanying genuine patent Nintendo, released last December . An element that argued for the veracity of the pictures, although many doubts remained.
The author of the first picture, I’m David, dropped the song from a video posted on YouTube in which he confirmed that this was a high-flying hoax. It shows the photo he shared on Reddit, on which appears the joystick. It then disappears, accompanied by music that traditionally marks the “game over” in Mario. Then come the plans of its “mock up” in 3D and work in Photoshop to make it all believable. In short, one minute and eight seconds of un-forty and rigolarde naked truth. Besides, if you want to see more 3D renderings made by David Im this might look like the handle of NX, you can visit their account Devian Art.
The rescue of 3D printing
the author of the second series of photos, which included two is called Frank Sandqvist, and is also out of the woods. Finn admits that he was inspired by the first fake and have wanted to see if he could do as well.
“I’m sorry to have to hope people but it seems that most people were against this kind of design ‘, he said referring to user comments on Reddit, including, who complained of the absence of handles on “his” joystick, which made her pretty little ergonomic priori . “Perhaps as a result, it is a relief to learn that it is a false” , he hopes.
But Sanqvist Frank has worked hard, though. He realized a 3D impression of his rock up before the shooting, he “plays” with elsewhere at the beginning of his video.
He explained that the manufacture was rather easy. The party made the screen is black acrylic laser cut – he is the head of an engraving company using this technology. While the handle base is plastic 3D printed, as joysticks that are part of the same shape.
Frank Sanqvist and his brother were still bothered to paint the sticks with spray paint to give them a rubbery appearance.
hear about what he should have done for all this seems even truer is quite fascinating, one feels almost disappointed that this is not a real joystick.
He says besides the ergonomics of its fake product, noting that it might be appropriate to place the sticks above for more comfort. Nintendo, if you listen …
False but a real creativity
But this is false joystick is actually not a problem. It now is just be patient enough to see what Nintendo has really planned for its next console. It promises to be a hybrid concept, at the crossroads between home console and portable. The handle could be a simple joystick or become a kind of successor to the 3DS, if the words of Satoru Iwata has not been distorted by fools hopes of the gaming community.
We can console anyway, glancing to concepts designed from these fake controllers. That of Tim Aza, broadcast on Vine, is absolutely gorgeous and is hoped that these hoaxes are not fallen too far from reality … hard not to salute the talent of these creative users, which states that it is also the Web . Talent, imagination and a sophomoric mind sometimes. In this sense, the vision of John Z is not without a certain retro charm.
