Hmmm very interesting!!!!!

I don't want that square to be an NFC sensor. It just seems like the majority of people won't use this feature, so it wouldn't be good to have that out in the open.

I believe this rumor is from IdeaMan, so I am taking it as a grain of salt.

It is from Ideaman so you can.

that makes no sense it will likely be a used feature and even if it makes no sense to hide the feature.

I'm sure the square button next to the power button is the magical screen switcher. It wouldn't make sense to have it on-screen, like in the zelda demo. Just press a button and it probably flips through a few sets the developer or user had pre-set. Some games might have pre-set screen switches, others might allow the user to set what the screen might display and then switch between a few custom settings.

Examples:

Setting 1 = Main game with HUD on TV, map/items on controller
Setting 2 = Main game on TV, HUD, items and map on controller (clean TV mode, I will cry tears of joy if this becomes real)
Setting 3 = Main game with HUD on controller, map/items on screen (+ button needed to switch to item screen here)
Setting 4 = Main game with full HUD on controller, TV not used (full streaming mode)

I believe this 100%.
Plus this is the only logical choice, the button has to be important for it to be so out in the open.

then again it could be for games that just dont outright include the ability to switch screens. im hoping its something more important than just that though

I like the idea.

Like everyone said I like this idea. Hopefully developers will use this with some of the there games.

Very interesting. That idea from ArnarFB seems spot on to me.
