I wonder what the contoller of the next Xbox will look like...
well here is a concept i made about half a year ago.
I just remembered and uploaded it

maybe you like it...
and NO i didn't steal the Touchpad idea from the PS4 since back then it wasn't even announced... i stole it from the OUYA

__________
THE "BIG" IDEA BEHIND THE FEATURES:

As you can see it has almost all the standard Buttons the 360 Controller has and a similar shape.

What i changed:
__
There now are 2 new Interface Buttons. instead of "Start" and "Back" we got "Guide" and "Options"
the Options Button is basically a replacement of the "Start" button, thats 1 detail i canged now that the PS4 is announced and also has an Button called options...
it originally was called "Pause"
You might ask why change it? Well because START makes no sense nowadays. You dont START a game with that button nowadays, most of the time you use the "A" button to choose an option in a menu right?

__
The "Guide" button isn't really new, i just moved it to the left and took away the "Back" button of the 360 because like the "Start" button that thing makes no sense at all... or have you ever used the "Back" button on the Xbox controller to go back? i mean most games support that in their menus but its way more convenient to use the "B" button instead.

__
The "White" and "Black" buttons are back! YAAAY! Since the "Back" button is gone, and many games used that button to change the perspective (for example in driving games), i needed to ad at least 1 new button to compensate that... well then i looked at my Xbox 1 controller and thought "WHY THE HELL NOT!?" lets just bring back the "white" and "black" button.
It doesnt hurt right? and like on the Xbox 1 Pad, the buttons are smaller and harder to press so you dont press them incidentally while playingan intense game

__
There is the Touchpad. i showed how to use it for changing the Controller slot, but of course it can be a great tool for game designers too.

The Triggers should stay the way they are on the 360 Pad
