Last week Dual Pixels posted a picture of what they claimed to be the Nintendo NX controller. It didn't take long for more "leaked" pictures to spread. Of course this started a heated debate about its authenticity. As late as yesterday the pictures were under scrutiny. Today we finally have proof that the original "leaked" picture is fake.

Idriss2Dev, a reddit user claiming to be Dual Pixels "exclusive source", posted this video on Youtube. Here he/she explains how the picture was created, and apologises for the deceit.

We don't know about you, but we're glad to hear that the picture was fake.
