Gadget design is rarely a simple process, and we now know that theย Xbox Oneย is no exception to the rule. Microsoft designer Carl Ledbetter hasย revealedย that the game console went through many 3D-printed incarnations before the company settled on a final product; there were 75 system prototypes, 100 for theย Kinectย and 200 forย the gamepad.

With theย Xbox Oneย launching eight years after theย Xbox 360ย you would expect that the engineering team that created the new next-gen console had plenty of time to tweak the final product to perfection.ย And that’s exactly what lead designer on the Xbox One, Carl Ledbetter claims to have done. In a feature about the designer on theย Microsoft websiteย Ledbetter explains that the design team worked through more than 75 console, 100 Kinect and 200 controller prototypes in the search to create the best next-gen games machine.
