JOYSTICK-IT Arcade Joystick for iPad Review and Giveaway

Have you ever wish to have a joystick on your iPad while you are playing many iOS games with virtual on-screen control pad? I received an interesting gadget from focalprice.com which adds a physical joystick to your tablet — JOYSTICK-IT iPad Arcade Stick.

Read on for my review and giveaway!

With solid milled aluminum construction, the little gadget has more weight than I thought and don’t feel cheap. You simply adhere the suction-cup at the middle of the on-screen control pad and you are ready to go. It’s stick-and-play!

Here is the demo video I took while playing AirAttach HD on iPad using iPad Arcade Joystick:

Please ignore my lame skill. I just want to show you that the little joystick works and the small suction-cup stick on screen very well.

Did I tell you that the iPad arcade stick works for Android tablets too? In fact, it works on any device which feature a capacitive touchscreen.

My two cents

Personally, I think the iPad Arcade Stick is a little too tall that I don’t feel ease and easy to control the direction. Maybe it takes some time and training. I’m not a gamer, anyway.

Where to buy?

You can buy the iPad arcade joystick at Focalprice for only USD$5.26 (free shipping). Note that ThinkGeek is selling similar item for $25!
