Who knows if the Namco Portable will ever become a reality?

You would think they would at least use 360 controllers.

1) It is likely a stock photo, very common in advertisement.
2) You just need a small USB adapter to use PS2 controllers on a PC anyway.

It's an advertisement. Chances are they weren't playing anything, and chances are the majority of people who see that ad won't care to complain.

How about the fact it's bragging about tags for better searching, while just dumping them as the file name?
But yeah the MacBook is another oops...
