Depressingly, of late we've still been at the stage in the development of the iPod as a gaming platform where the self-styled "hardcore" feel able to dismiss it as not being a "proper" games machine, claiming that it runs nothing but five-minute casual games. As of last Friday, that time is over.
"Enter the iCade iPad Arcade Cabinet! To use the iCade, gently slide the iPad into the docking cradle. The docking cradle uses a standard 30 pin connector to link the iPad to the professional-grade arcade controls. Once the iPad is in place, launch the iCade App (available free in the App Store April 3rd) and it's game on!"
They're clearly "joking", the bastards. But seriously, though – how hard would it be for some enterprising genius to make this real? Come ON!
