Didn't see this coming:

100 Atari games (arcade and 2600). The app itself is free, and includes Pong. The other games are sold in 4-packs for .99, or you can get all of them for $15. It even works with the iCade (nice!)

Here's a list of all the games:

double posting madness!!

I just bought the Major Havok bundle and am disappointed with the controls and screen orientation. I am happy to see it though.

I have a question about the inapp purchases, I downloaded a couple on my iPad but they don't play on my iPhone 4 that syncs to the same iTunes on the same computer (Mac / Snow Leopard). Shouldn't they share the inapp purchases or do I have to buy them again on my iPhone?

By the way, you can still use a PC and have an iPad or iPhone, so I'm not sure what your problem is.

I'm just waiting for the day someone will make either a bluetooth gamepad, or even a handheld cradle/controller that the Iphone/Touch would lock into. Imagine a PSP with an open space the phone would snap into. You could even incorporate an extra battery into the design. :lust:

I'm almost positive I've seen what you're describing.

EDIT: Yes, here... has to be jailbroken for this one though, but I've seen others too:

For the iPad, there are at least a couple joystick products available:

Exactly, I still use my iPod Touch while owning no other apple products.
I was excited to see this applications also, but I am not sure which set of games I want to buy.

Runs like smeggin' crap on my iPod Touch, but it is one of the older units. I'd recommend sticking with the DS version(s) if you have the option.

Control is horrible but the emulation seems good.
