Saw that on Kotaku yesterday.
Seems real cumbersome (with the belt buckle and all), kinda one of those things you show off and don't really use I suppose.

I could just imagine the blisters that buckle would cause.

It looks like shit to me. I don't blame Nintendo for not letting this thing see the light of day.

If that's the case, why even have it on there?
And yeah, I know it's for look, but I always hate having things like this, because they're impractical to use, unless you want to remove half the shit.

Yea, like I said, despite being a controller, it seems to be more of a display piece.
I looks kinda cool but I wouldn't wanna buy it (unless I just had stupid money to throw).

Honestly, it looks like something a fanboy made out of sculpey and testor's. Must have been a mock-up even before prototyping.

Cause that's how I roll bounce. |

This. But the box looks like an awesome thing to have.

This is a collectible, clearly. But uh, where's the start button?

If the controller told me to "Hey, listen", I might actually throw a little dough at it.

it looks like a mutation of a gamecube controller.
just take a look at the emblem in the middle of the controller.
it looks selfmade and it doesn't even resemble anything from a zelda game.

Agreed, it is cool to look at.
What isn't cool about it? I don't see how they could have made much more a Zelda themed controller.

What are those small black things by the buttons? Is one of those the start button? Or is it that giant green crap in the middle?

this will sure give you an extraordinary gaming experience not even having a start button.

I assume that the start button is that shield-looking thing.

I will say that I like the color scheme and if they left it at that, I might be good with it.

It resembles a Gamecube controller though... which is generally what I like my Gamecube controllers to resemble.

IMO GCN controllers were small to begin with. and my hands are relatively big, so i dont think that leather wrap would make a huge difference for me.
