For what it's worth, apparently he posted this a few days earlier on his twitter.

Judge for yourself whether that looks real or not.

I posted a tweet which included a picture of that tweet on the first page.

Not to mention the difference in colors, lol.

Actually if you look closely where the d-pad should be there is a kind of glare, I think it is there!

I thought this was some quality shit-post

Anyways , Its obvious Ninty forced him to delete his tweet and the video

If that is the switch's build quality then we have something to seriously worry about.

Look above the 4 buttons on the right-side. See that little d-pad? Notice how it's not there in the video?

First off the size seems a bit off from the teaser. Look at the buttons and crap. Quality looks so crappy of course he doesn't have this console.

Ah, you're right - I probably skimmed over it because it was some random guy's twitter post and it only had a link.

Yeah, it seems GBATemp's tweet embed BBCode is kinda wonky and doesn't let tweets show up 100% all the time.

Its not a d-pad its the plus button

Even if it was real so what? He didn't really leak anything about the Switch that we don't know about it.

Of all the people on youtube to get a switch I don't know why he would be picked.

What if it is the prototype? the ds prototype looked ugly as fuck

prototype

So your saying they released a prototype of the console, but its a very crappy prototype? They already planned out the design and it looks wonderful. It wouldn't make sense too make a crappier version to give.

Also this guy does Gateway videos. Why would Nintendo want to give anything too him? That's like Sony sending the PS5 (if it ever comes out) early to GeoHot.

prototype

The one he has looks a helluva lot cheaper than what was shown in the reveal.

like the guy above said. the ds prototype was ugly af. maybe they didnt want to spend too much money on him. plus it cud be fan made

 

[RemixDeluxe]

The only thing I'd like to know is if the screen has a touch interface or not. That's been a burning question ever since the reveal.

remember this?

Like I said earlier why would Nintendo want too give their products early to a guy who makes videos on Gateway cards, etc. Which can be used too pirate on Nintendo's 3DS.

Yeah, I'm fairly sure Nintendo wouldn't want to spend any money on Etika.

I guess I should also point out that the buttons on the Joy-Con Etika has look really shit in comparison to the Joy-Con buttons shown in the trailer.

Okay, looking at this picture well:

And at this picture:

Spoiler: Picture

The biggest thing is the buttons. Just look at the ABXY buttons, the text is way too big for those buttons, and bold font isn't right. The thumbsticks are close matches, but the scratched paint doesn't help. And the plastic itself isn't as glossy as the product.
All in all, I'm positive it's a fake.
But it's weird because I've known this channel for a long time. He's done some crazy/weird things before, & it doesn't surprise me he went a bit drunk; but this isn't something he would do. That's a bad move on his part.
EDIT: I'm actually noticing some more. The circle button on the right JoyCon is supposed to have a grayish rim, & Etika's is more white than it should be. And the corners of the screen sorta throws me off, too.
