Portable Console: GameDock Kickstarter Looking For Support

Retro games will always have a special place in our hearts. For millennials and generation X-ers, these games remind us of our childhoods spent button-mashing and delighting in beautiful, pixelated worlds. It’s time to do justice to the modern pixelated game renaissance with an iPhone accessory that brings an extra layer of authenticity to the experience.

Doesn't seem very portable to me.

Doesn't an iPhone HDMI cable make more sense?

[joab777]

Yeah, this makes no sense or we aren't getting the whole pic. I have a nexus, does the iPhone have an HDMI hookup? If it does, this is irrelevant. If it doesnt, I am sure apple already has something u can buy. Does this allow controller hookups? All I can say is that there may be the benefit of patenting it for the future when mobile phones are running quad core processors (I know they do in the UK), and great graphics cards and r running full fledged games. Then, he may have something. My guess is that by then it will be streamed to ur TVs or something.

Until these units are capable of playing a good majority of IOS or Android games its pointless to spend a nice chuck of cash for just 10 games of varying level of quality.

I'm sure it'll be compatible with iMAME4ALL, which is one of the sole reasons I bought a 80 some dollar iCADE. I don't see why this isn't pretty cool as well?

Just that some games may not work if they use a lot of buttons, but I think it's cool.
