[QUOTE=alpha00zero;51371361]It could be but remember the early trailers and ads for the Wii U? The gamepad still had the 3DS like analogs. And on the Switch's, the controller looked really early prototype with a weird finish and a couple of seams. Not saying its real (and hopefully it isn't because he will be in deep trouble) but they have shown changes in their hardware before in ads. EDIT: NVM Those buttons look awful. It looks really fake. [t]http://i.imgur.com/GTswi2L.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Shits fake as fuck. The home button isnt supposed to be white, the letters look like shit with some bumps on them for some reason, and the L and R buttons dont stick out.
People keep pointing out the buttons, but there's a lot more to it that makes it really hard to be faked. Like the fact that he actually slid the Joy-Cons out and into the controller dock. You can't just 3D-print that kind of functionality without considerable time and effort. This isn't like that other pre-reveal fake, this one has actual functionality that we have video proof of. I'm thinking it's real, but it's not a real [I]device[/I]. It's probably a show prop, like the ones in the trailer. Considering how tightly under lock-and-key Nintendo kept the ones for that trailer, I can't imagine how he would get one. But then again, now that it's been officially revealed, it's not too far-fetched to think that Nintendo would entrust outsiders with them now. Maybe he had it as part of an upcoming collaboration with Nintendo or maybe someone else who had it for that reason gave it to him. Whatever the case, I'm betting he isn't going to be on good terms with Nintendo now. :v:
That's a [I]lot[/I] of effort for a fake though, especially the center part with the screen. It's incredibly accurate otherwise too. Like others have noted, test versions of consoles almost always have really weird shit going on.
[QUOTE=Cmx;51371449]The home button isnt supposed to be white[/QUOTE] I don't know where you're getting that from. It definitely has a ring like that around it in official renders in photos, likely semi-transparent so it can light up. It probably looks more pronounced due to the harsh lighting in his room.
It's obv game but watch the video in that tweet anyway, it's hilarious [editline]14th November 2016[/editline] I think he's actually broken
Not impossible that it's real, this is what the PS Vita looked like a one point. [img]http://media.vandalimg.com/640/1-2013/201312516819_1.jpg[/img] He could just have an old prototype.
probably a prop, seeing as he won't turn the screen on now, who sent it to him, maybe it was nintendo?
[QUOTE=Rellow;51371309][media]https://twitter.com/AlexanderPale/status/798294259589791744[/media] Rest in Peace Nintendo won't even leave a body for his loved ones.[/QUOTE] Huh, so a guy not a week earlier livetweeted a direct link to 4chan when Pokemon Moon was leaked, was trusted with a prototype or a review setup of the Switch, which hasn't even had an announcement of launch game lineup and price point? Sorry, not buying it.
Am I the only one who finds it gross seeing a Twitch streamer not wear a shirt?
he's not wearing pants either I think
Isn't that Youtube Gaming, not Twitch?
[QUOTE=Nidhogg;51372272]Am I the only one who finds it gross seeing a Twitch streamer not wear a shirt?[/QUOTE] Why would you find a normal looking guy with a decent body gross just to look at?
Because I came to watch a game, not a half-naked guy.
Why would Nintendo send some random streamer a Switch, doesn't make any sense
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;51372570]Why would Nintendo send some random streamer a Switch, doesn't make any sense[/QUOTE] It makes a little more sense if you go off the assumption that it's just a prop model rather than a functioning unit. I still don't know why Etika would have one, but a prop model being leaked (either by Etika or given to Etika from the true leaker) is more plausible.

[QUOTE=Fapplejack;51372590]What are you gay?[/QUOTE] I do like myself a well-toned man, but that's not what I come to Twitch for. :v:
yeah luigi is a beefcake isnt he?
[QUOTE=Makol;51372757]yeah luigi is a beefcake isnt he?[/QUOTE][URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-5T7MNJjIg"]Oh yeah.[/URL]
why even take down Etika's videos if the thing is just a prop. We've all seen the Switch now Nintendo, if it really is just a prop the only thing we've learned is that it comes in multiple colors. Showing it off doesn't even hurt anyone, they're just being babies about it.

There's literally no way in hell it's real unless he turns it on. They aren't going to send Etika a Switch for no reason and it's not like he straight up could of stolen one or something.

why
[QUOTE=Swiket;51373148][media]https://twitter.com/DerekPadula/status/797913868022362112[/media][/QUOTE] That's something I never expected to see. Hope it works out, that sort of game could be good with some proper polish. Wonder where they'll go with it, main story was already covered, in 1-3, maybe could just be a retelling? Or hit some Super content?
It's so weird seeing the launch 3DS in promo art again

Goku 1 was dogshit, I don't recall 2 and 3 being much better but didn't play them too much.

That's still not a gleaming recommendation, because 1 is one of the worst games on the system of course, but the later ones were legitimately fun timewasters
[QUOTE=Swiket;51373148][media]https://twitter.com/DerekPadula/status/797913868022362112[/media][/QUOTE] I loved the second one. It was fun as hell to play as a fan of the show.
