    I can't use this but thought someone here might be able to. Pinball Arcade > Pinball HD from what I hear, but this might be a nice little Christmas gift to you or someone else.

    I bought this last week (as an eventual gift for someone) - I don't even own an ipad. Looks cool and it's a great deal! I also like the tables, played them years ago...

    Too bad this probably wouldn't work with Pinball Arcade for $4 i'd buy it in a heart beat.

    Not available for ipad mini ....damn!!!!

    Reviews say it works with the mini.

    I bought a few of these a while back. It includes 4 Pinball HD tables that it loads downloads when the device connects to the ipad. You can use it with a mini but it will not lock into the holder.

    It has an analog plunger and 2 arcade buttons. The controller uses bluetooth to connect but only works with the Pinball HD app. You can get it to connect on a PC and remap the buttons to keypresses with a hacked driver.

    It's worth $4 for the buttons and plunger if you were making a virtual pin.

    Anyone hacked this to work with Pinball Arcade?

    Like I said, you can load a hacked driver and make it work as a keyboard. I played with it a bit but ended up using a Xbox controller as the Duo wasn't as comfortable and didn't have enough buttons to navigate the menu's.

    Nice idea but it's not for an iPad. Anyone happen to find an Pinball Arcade iPad solution?

    He said Pinball Arcade, not iPad, It does work for Pinball Arcade on PC.

    I'm not sure what other input options you have on TPA mobile, I don't think it has any sort of controller/keyboard support. If it had that, you could mod a bluetooth keyboard into the controller housing but at that point, you would be better off making something better.

    I wouldn't hold my breath. Maybe if you're running a jail broken iPad you'd have better luck with a hack as seen on the PC? But face it this is a piece of hardware that sold poorly and evidently the makers refused to allow Pinball Arcade to make it compatible, so hard to imagine how any kind of "official support" would come about.

    It actually pairs as a headset and not a controller. I could make you one, but unless pinball arcade and ZEN support controllers I have no way to use it with the games(without jailbreaking).

    I have a forgotten about icade I'm thinking about moving the board to the Duo. The only issue i see is to connect iCade bluetooth to Ipad it's a 4 button press. The Duo only has two buttons.
