iControlPad, the greatest, and most essential phone accessory

---

Though the product title might suggest a bladder control product for the elderly, the iControlPad is one amazing gamepad!

I received my iControlPad from the UK yesterday. It was everything I hoped it could be. It works beautifully with the emulators I had already on the my phone.

Connected pretty easily with the Bluez IME app installed and only took a few seconds to configure key mappings in each emulator.

I put a video up showing how the Continuum mounts with the universal bracket and how it looks in action!

That is awesome! How does it actually connect to the phone so that the controller works? I dont see it plugged in anywhere.

Nice... how much does that thing go for?

And what about battery life?

Also, does it work with all emulators?

I just got my first one yesterday, so I'm new to the emulator thing. Seems pretty cool though!

Especially for downtime for me at work and basically just anytime for my kids....

It works beautifully with all the emulators I've tried.
It has a lithium-ion battery....I haven't really played extensively on it but the battery hasn't been an issue whenever I've used it.

It connects to the phone via bluetooth.

There is an app called Bluez IME that treats the iControlPad as an external keyboard if you will, so that any game that allows for keyboard controls can use the iControlPad.

The problem I've found so far, is I haven't been able to use the analog nubs as true analog controls. The Bluez IME app doesn't have analog support for the iControlPad yet....and I haven't spent a lot of time looking for ways to use the analog nubs in any games.

with shipping, it was $89.

yeah, that's rough.....but the shipping was about $25.

What emulator are you using?

has all our needs

I use NESOID, SNES9x EX, and N64OID. I used to use SNESOID but there are some graphic issues I noticed in some games that aren't there in SNES9x EX.

Unfortunately, at the moment, N64OID doesn't rotate either way, which forces you to mount the ICP one way.....and that happens to be the way I'd prefer not to mount it.
