Itās rare we get a look at the very ground level of console hardware design, but thatās what we got this week with an Iwata Asks segment on Nintendoās website, which shows an adorable little cardboard mock-up of a Wii U controller, used to quickly test out various possible uses for the giant pad.
I love the fact it was āhollowā, so the developers could slide in different ideas. I hate that the sight of that image has put the fax noise in my head all morning, and I canāt get it out
