More Wii 2 rumors have escaped into the wild, this time courtesy of a YouTube video titled “Private Presentation of “Project Cafe” by a Video Games Editor.”

The video features a slideshow presentation of production drawings for the Wii 2’s controller and the system itself. The anonymous video game editor also claims that the Wii 2/Project Cafe console itself is actually visible at the 15 second mark. Circled in red, it’s sitting on the table below the screen. However, this could be any piece of computer equipment as it’s never clearly shown.

But the real highlight of the video is supposed confirmation of the Wii 2 controller, complete with that six-inch touchscreen. The controller closely resembles an Xbox 360/GameCube hybrid with a screen slapped into the center of it. And if the six-inch screen measurement is accurate, it will make even the original Xbox controller look tiny in comparison.

Of course, the entire clip is of a very poor quality and creating a similar looking video as a hoax wouldn’t be difficult at all. I’d take this rumor with a huge grain of salt and wouldn’t consider it confirmation of anything just yet.
