Sick of fiddly touchscreen gaming for your Android smartphone or iPhone?
Wow - £50 - on top of the £300-500 smartphone price.....to play some £2 games?
Big improvement over onscreen controls in many cases though. And why does game price come into it? Surely the alternative is spending e.g. £30 on PSP or similar games, which just makes it look like a bargain.
Couldn't you just use a usb joypad with a android tablet? After all USB keyboards and mice seem to work fine. Would be a lot cheaper too - All you'd need then is a decent clamp!
This is supposed to be quite a sturdy little peripheral. I have an Xperia PLAY and I think the joypad makes gaming better. However, I agree, £50 is quite expensive.
Dont forget you can play a vast number of online games on an android device. Meaning you could use this game pad to play reasonable games on your handheld.Quote:

Considering a ps3 controller as just an example is way under that, and this looks like it might be cheap quality wise, I'm going to have to disagree...Quote:

For an item that uses Bluetooth, I'm not surprised at the price, though I don't actually think it's worth buying... Like someone said, a majority of the games are £1-5, and you don't really look for a full on gaming experience with portable items like the iPhone and iPad; at most, people play games on the bus for a few minutes or something.
I can play Galcon on the toilet for a very long time thank you very much!Quote:
