The historical development of video game controllers seems to have been part of the greater and more general enthusiasm for handheld gadgets. The same enthusiasm that has changed the way we communicate. A fascination with hand tools and our own ingenuity.
However in other areas, we may be shifting away from some types of machines. Specifically the box machines. Too many inelegant audio solutions, too many dissimilar boxes stacked under and over the screens.
Perhaps there could be a shift, while we are nearing single digit nanometer processing. If people don’t really want the boxes but love manipulating machines with their hands (manus). Why not put everything in our hands and visually clear the mind of clutter?
