With a lot of old classic console games on the App Store and better MFi controllers out there, I thought this would be a fun discussion. What’s missing from the mobile console gaming world? What do you think can be improved or needs to be implemented for a mobile device to be considered a true console?
For me, all controllers need to have four standard buttons (A/B/X/Y), two joysticks, a d-pad, four shoulder buttons, and what’s missing really is L3 and R3 (the buttons under the joysticks). Definitely more so for iOS we need microSD expansion to save games and save files to. Display isn’t too big of an issue if you buy an HDMI adapter. It goes without saying, we need the game ports. That’s what I think the biggest setbacks are, the missing pieces, what do you think?
