CONFIRMED: This IS the PS4 Prototype Controller & DevKit

[UPDATE] Kotaku confirms this is the real deal. This is a prototype of the "Orbis" controller. Final design may vary.

AGB offers no description, no caption, and no source. Take this is the biggest grain of salt in the Sony sodium ocean...but the controller looks legit.

    1. He prefers to post unfinished stories. Rather than adapting them as they emerge and adding additional images, information, speculation or conjecture.
      The last two would require this guy to firstly, be familiar with the hardware he's reporting on and secondly have an opinion.

    1. It's strange looking device but more likely a track pad like the back of the PSVita. Sorry Dexter but Richard's called it right. Also PSMove bar at top. Speaker grill is likely a Mic & headphone jack underneath. Elongated handles. Sticks looks like they're from a cheap Madcats pad. I still think it could be a fake.

    2. Your prediction may still come true. That track pad may well be hinged. Take a closer look at the official press photos, also look at the material used on the underside of the pad. Intersting doing you think, possibly a conductive surface not just visually pleasing. The image above IS a fairly early working prototype.

    3. Just checked. That hinge is to allow the trackpad to be clicked down.
