Spork3245 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I’m looking for a controller that will work with my iPad mini and can also mount the iPad on it for the Steam streaming app. I bought this over the weekend: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MR4VLJW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_nbX.CbV1C9A6T because “oh, hey, my iPad will be like a Switch!”, but, jfc, the analog sticks don’t click so I’m missing L3 and R3 in games, plus, the right analog stick is absolute trash for accuracy with a really odd dead zone (and this thing ranks as one of the best iOS controllers ) and reminds me a lot of the awful nVidia Shield controller analog sticks. So, is there anything out there that’s as good as a PS4 or Xbone controller? I do have a Nyko Smart Clip for my Xbone controllers that I could use when streaming over wifi, but was hoping for something more similar to that Game Vice controller, but with good analog sticks and all the inputs.

That doesn't solve the "wouldn't it be cool to turn my iPad into a Switch" dilemma here. I had the same issue when I tried to find some good controller for a tablet to stream Steam to. I found nothing but janky and awful gamepads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, the Game Vice is good quality build-wise, but the lack of L3 and R3 plus the terrible aiming with the analog sticks makes it practically unusable. It’s insane that this is supposedly *the* controller for iOS devices and is the one sold in Apple Stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I imagine it will release in the Fall around September or October. They generally release a new iOS like clockwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
