Note: To clear up “transparent” buttons – meaning all other buttons also looking exactly like the “PS” button on the DUALSHOCK 3 now, or all the buttons currently on the PSVITA, the buttons are “transparent” instead of black plastic and the emblems are white/gray instead of green, pink, red, blue – making it a much more sleek and modern style.

PS Button should light up much like the PSVITA too? The PS button on the PS3 was once advertised with the PS Button lighting up red.

Love this idea. I would also like it to be very durable, since I seem to have a problem with analog sticks wearing about. Perhaps have it be modulated, so you can easily swap out analog sticks and configurations. And perhaps also offer custom controller mapping via the PS3 software.
As a huge bonus, Sony could also have it come with a DVD with drivers for Windows/Mac/Linux.
I’d easily pay $150 for such a controller.

Love it! yes on the transparent buttons just like the ‘PS’ button. Super glossy with that silver trim too. could also use the vita-styled analogs as well. I hope they make this cause I’d buy it. It would also go perfect with the upcoming Elite Edition – PULSE wireless stereo headset.

I’d definitely be a fan of this design if developed and would give it a place in my collection
