Patent
UPDATE
Well, it appears it is a controller, however, I do not believe it is registered by Nintendo. This is all very confusing. But it appears the controller has a slider, a trackball, and haptic feedback in both the analog stick and the d-pad. I know that the comments under this post will describe it better because people are alot smarter than me at figuring patents and such out.

Hey, I used to write patents for Motorola. I looked at the technical documents and the design of it is clearly a Nintendo design. Though, it's registered to IMMERSION, who specializes in force feedback technology. So, is Nintendo pairing up with them for the new controller? Also, look at the design, if that's the controller, the button layout is not the best for twitch fighting games. Looks like they're not learning a lesson. Unless using ON, you can look like a moron in your living room punching air and trying not to fall into something.
Well a blog by KingDea said a trackball instead of a C stick and he also states Feedback technology where it can force the controller left like if an explosion blows up on the right in a game the controller shifts left.
Nintendo has partnered with Immersion. And you can see that many patents filed by Nintendo recently, have Immersion as the people who invented it. So this is definetly worth looking into!
I don't believe this for a second, because for starters the pictures show it connecting to a computer. Two I think this would be a horrible idea for a controler and I think Nintendo will be smarter than to use an idea like this.
God! I just saw the coolest blog in the world. It was so awesome, I loved it. I literally fell in love with it and licked by computer for hours. Yeah...
