Apple Working on Game Controller For iPhone?
AnandTech published their review of the new iPad earlier today.
In the review, they highlight that one of the advantages of Android based tablets is the support for wired and wireless game controllers and have revealed something interesting.
AnandTech claims that Apple has been working on a game controller for iOS devices.

^ I agree! That way your device doesn't have to be jailbroken

That's funny, I read this and had to double check the date it was published to make sure it wasn't an April Fool's Day joke. All kidding aside, playing Modern Combat 3, GTA3, and Real Racing with a physical game pad would be GREAT. I have a gameboy emulator on my 4S and use my wiimote to play super mario bros advance and it's phenomenal. (Not to mention the jealousy that ensues from onlookers... quite entertaining.)

Agreed. I think we're overlooking the fact that this might be developed for iTV though. Most people wouldn't want to stand in front of their TV and use it as a touchscreen to play a game on it. So maybe the game controller is for iTV apps so you have a way to play them from your couch.

Actually tilting your device to steer your car in real racing is by all means perfect, dont you agree?

Nope, nothing beats playing apps on your iPad from a wiimote controller.iPad emulators ftw.
