    OMG, PlayStation 3 Controller Spelling Mistake [Update: It's Real]

    Kotakuite Oly hit Sony's super swish Ginza showroom, which was not only displaying the PlayStation 3 for all to see, but a glaring spelling error. Instead of "SELECT", the PS3 controller reads "SERECT". Even though Sony's been batting fly balls of late, we're not going to poke fun. That would be rude. Spelling in a foreign language is hard, especially when it's an unusual word like "select".

    Update: It's been confirmed. This mistake is real. Note that the console in the picture at Sony's Ginza showroom is an actual PS3 and not a mock-up.

    Hit the jump for a few more pics. Brian Ashcraft

    Update: I've posted all the images of the controller, which include the two originals and the ones I posted. Take a look after the jump.
