Gamepad ideas

Hello!

Reluttr just sent us his design of a new game controller:

Acc. to the image the controller hosts the iPod Touch in a landscape mode.

Further, he writes:

“In theory it should work, because there are ipod remotes that do fully
work on the touch, and a game pad is technically a remote, just in a
more comfortable game friendly layout. I believe this would be a hit,
especially if zodttd integrated it to work with his emulators. Developing
something like this would be groundbreaking and would promote more
gaming on the touch/phone. For instance Doom, quake, and other games could
be modded to work with it thus making a more gamer friendly
environment.

I know there is other things people may be wanting like a external
camera to be put on the dock, or even a w-sim adaptor. But I believe the
gamepad is the most needed/wanted and possibly the easiest to achieve. I
think this would also help further expand you knowledge of the dock
and its potential.

Anyways I figured if anyone could make something like this real it
would be you guys, since you most likely know more about the limits of the
iphone/touchs dock than anyone else.

First of all, big thanks, Reluttr for sharing the idea with us. We just created a separate session for this topic on our Wiki here. Everybody, plese share your opinion/ideas with others to speed up the development of such an add-on. In case you have a little time and some useful info related to the topic share the info below on the Comments session or on the Wiki. As said: the Wiki is out there for you! .. and gaming is fun

Happy Hacking!
