All I want ( for now) is all the gameloft games, gta and shadowgun to have support... That would be so cool.
My guess is that some third party devs may have hold their controllers back because of the new sizes of the iPads. At least for the wrap around controllers....
I sure hope there are some detached joysticks with dual analog sticks coming out soon, or we might as well just go back to icade.
Great to see all of these comments, I think I was a bit lost in the hope if it all!! Your right we need hardware now to kick start other devs adding support. Once these controllers are available I can see them snowballing into the mainstream because I'm sure many people don't even know they are coming! Patients is not one of my strong points!
Good point here, it makes a lot of sense. Hopefully we will start to see some being released soon now the pad is out of the bag!
Here's MOGA Mfi's controller with an integrated battery: http://9to5mac.com/2013/10/25/first-look-at-mogas-upcoming-ace-power-mfi-ios-game-controller-w-built-in-1800mah-battery/
Yes just saw this, another one!!! Sweet!!! I like how it slides smaller, one of these for the phone, game case for my mini!!! Bring um out now!!!
I like the look of that controller, when you think about how small the iphone really is those side parts are not as big as the image makes them appear, it's still going to be rather standard pad sized if not smaller, and hopefully not too chunky in depth. Built in battery is a great thing, that kind of extra power easily doubles an iPhone 5 and 5S battery so you'll going to get quite a few hours of 3D gaming.
Never realized it got the update. I finished it back when it first came out, and deleted it. Great game! Added to the list. 15 games are now controller-compatible!

Let's hope for the cheaper price Will be added to the controller's list once everything becomes official.
Well the Verge says that it will cost 59$ for the android version so that 100$ for iOS might be the real deal... Available mid november at last but still no controllers for the iPad...
Meh. I'm only gonna shell out for one of these. And then there's going to have to be dual sticks on it. I see a bright future for dual stick shooters (top down arcade stuff, no FPS games) and racers.
these are ugly. I would like to see the buttons overlapping the side-bezels of the iphone.. you know. so the buttons/d-pad are closer to the screen.. look how far they are.. ugly
Yep sounds about right. Hey it's an ok deal if you think about the fact that most extra batterie covers cost $100 by themselves.
