I'm after some emulators and iOS games in general that work well with controllers. Here is my list so far:

  • GBA4iOS v.2
  • All three GTA games

Is there a decent one for PSX yet? Anything else? Just JBing my phone now and will look for myself later.

Just found RetroArch, holy shit. Does anyone know if it works well for everything it lists?


Yes, everything works, but - as it often happens - standalone apps work slightly better, especially PS1, NDS and GBA.

You can play DS games in landscape view and change the custom ratio in the extra settings of Retroarch.

You need a A7 to play them at an OK speed else don't bother. Even A7 it's not 100%, but NSMB and Zelda games are 90% of speed so they are playable.

This is the one to get. But probably worth waiting for iPhone 6, as it's likely the form factor will change.

Are there any good mounts for a DS3 or DS4?


No. Only DIY ones. Just buy a suitable car mount and glue it to a spare DS3.

Hope you won't go in public with this abomination Very Happy

P.S. reddit has some DIY solutions, google it

That's the current state of controllers for iOS/iOS7?


You pretty much nailed it Very Happy About taking it public it's rather not about it being a monstrosity but about the whole uber-nerdy situation of a big kid wanting to play stupid phone games SO MUCH that he's mounting his phone on a console controller AND plays it on the go Very Happy

What if you see a pretty girl? At least the moga ace can be instantly shoven into a pocket Laughing

I have no problem playing with touch controls if I want to play that much. I easily beat people online in Blitz Brigade and MC4. That's the only two games that even need controllers. The rest including UFO, KOTOR, Walkind Dead etc play fine with touch.

But if you're that hardcore get a Vita or a 3DS.

I have both of those already, I can't emulate PSX+N64+DS+iOS games on either

It's funny because when I originally stated how impractical phone controllers were, there was nothing but resistance, yet here I am.



I really don't know why you no like the moga ace. It doesn't look bad and snaps in and out easily.

Oh, and for emu you should take a look at chinese solutions with thumbsticks. Some have enough power to emu all that and they cost like a controller.

It's not that I don't like the Moga Ace, controlwise it's fine, on Ocean Horn it's fucking great.

The issue is the lack of support for everything else. Including emulators. I can't reassign the buttons. It's not that the controller doesn't work... I know it partially does at least.. I can control the menu using certain buttons (A to go Up, X to go down, it's very odd) but I just can't reassign them.

Is there some sort of MiFi wrapper or something that can be used?


That's what Blutrol is for, but unfortunately Ace uses the Lightning connector instead (

EDIT: Works great! Very Happy
