The video does not reveal much, but for those who will want to get their hands on this controller, this will certainly be enough and a nice way to see what can be expected of the upcoming item.

The new model is not that different from the old one, but there are some significant changes. For starters, there are two additional buttons on the back of the device labelled ‘GL’ and ‘GR’ that can be mapped to whichever input you desire. The device will also have a headphone jack at the bottom, which will make the acoustic experience much better. Also, the buttons will be a little larger and the grips a bit slimmer.
