You can build a dedicated bartop that looks better than this, has no control compatibility issues, all the games you want, for less than half the price. But hey, for the non-DIY'ers, this works out ok. --- End quote --- The iCade will actually retail for $99. $149 is the 'Joke' version's price. That said, I imagine this is more a neat accessory for already existing iPad owners and no one's gonna buy it JUST for iCade. And yeah, a DIYer would just buy a NetBook, partially disassemble it and construct their own iCade. |

It's a $99 accessory for people who already own an iPad. As an iPad owner, I'll surely grab one. And since it doesn't require any mods, etc, I'm still able to use my iPad as an iPad whenever I want. |

I hope they update the game list even if you have an Ipad $100 is a lot for 1 game, Asteroids, (which technically doesn't even use a joystick) |
