Hey Guys,

I am always on the look out for great new/concept add-ons for hardware. Well this is going to be a really winner for gamers when the AppStore from apple is released, now let me give you a little background on the AppStore if you don’t already know…

The Apple AppStore will be similar to the iTunes Store on iTunes or your iPhone/iPod Touch but it will allow you to buy applications and games from developers. Now this is not released yet but hopefully in the up-and-coming weeks we will see some progression!

Already a lot of game developers have created games for the iPhone/iPod Touch - see this post here for more details. There are going to be loads of different games designed for the iPhone/iPod Touch! Now you might not see where I am going, but iControlPad will come in very handy! If you look at the image above, it just a case that fits around the device to create a gaming platform to hold (similar to PSP look).

Its going to be a while until the AppStore will be compatible with this piece of hardware (if ever), hopefully game developers will take this into account and create games that can be used with it! Currently, if you have a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch you can use this to play Playstation, Genesis or Super Nintendo etc… games using emulators.

Prototypes have been distributed so hopefully pre-ordering might be an option soon!

I will keep you posted on the price,
