If they are planning on adding a touch pad, hopefully they put in where the Select, Start, and home buttons currently are and make that space a bit bigger. Move the select, start, and home buttons to the fold like the Razer Sabertooth since they're buttons you don't use often during gameplay.
On top of that they could add 1GB of memory into the controller so you can save screen shots, or gameplay videos, game saves, and more to the controller, and view them back on the pad.
Unless they can allow you to save all that to the cloud now.
naah i believe sony knows better than to completely change the design of the controller. i love the controller they can put about 1 or to new things but nothing to drastic want them to keep the overall same design and comfort of the dualshock. i actually don't mind if they dont change it at all and just put that money into the ps4 lol
Actually its looking more likely that it will go down the Wii U route in some way, maybe not exactly, but having a screen on a main controller could definitely happen.
but...the new controller will completely move away from the dualshock design according to sony. there won't be a dualshock 4. i still don't understand why sony is trying to fix something that isn't broken. most playstation fans agree that the dualshock3 is great so changing it is a gamble not worth taking IMO. i hope they at the very least allow you to use the ps3 controller on the ps4 that way i can decide for my self if i want to change. it will be pretty interesting to see the reaction when it is revealed and when people actually use it. i get the feeling that the new controller will probably feel better than it looks, some ergonomic keyboards and mice for example look absolutely crazy but are quite amazing when you actually use them thats why i hope people don't pass judgement too quickly.
well they didn't exactly say so directly but it has been rumoured on various site including this one. “has undergone numerous iterations, few of which resemble the DualShock” http://www.officialplaystat...
Whatever they decide will be amazing. Sony has never failed to impress with their controller designs. I have never had a bad thing to say about any of the DualShocks.
a prediction: If they change the Dualshock there will be articles galore complaining about it. If the don't change the Dualshock there will be articles galore complaining about it. Can't wait.
They won't change the dualshock, maybe adding something. Sony knows that the core fans want to keep the dualshock, maybe they will make a new controller, but keeping the dualshock. A dualshock/move hybrid?

Please don't put the touch pad on the back.

Now THAT would be perfection.

It's part of the playstation heritage.
i also hope they bring the colored ps logo back too.
And for old times sake, it would be cool if ps4 had a modern take on the old ps1 boot up screen.
There's something magical about that old sound that melts my soul.
I think the only changes that need to be done with the controller is the L2 and R2 triggers need to have and outward curvature.
P.S. just The Triggers
