Gpod Is The New iPhone Game Pad On The Block

We have been waiting long enough for a decent iPhone gamepad which will take the gaming on iPhone to a next level .With so many awesome gaming apps available for iPhone it was sensible enough for some company to come out with a game controller accessory but it never happened. The iControlPad is yet to make any progress(unfortunately) but now there is a new promising player in the arena and its called Gpod aka iPhone Gamepad . The Gpod is from CP design and they recently released a video showing the Gpod in action.

Enter the gPod, an iPhone case with integrated gaming control pad. Interfacing with the Apple 30 pin connector and providing tactile buttons in the conventional game pad layout, the iPhone Game Pad allows a massive library of arcade and console games to be ported to the iPhone and not lose that old school interface that people who grew up in the 80?s and 90?s enjoyed so much.

Please do note that its still in the prototype phase and no details of market availability are revealed. I just hope they get support from some company for mass production as this can be a sure shot hit with iPhone Gamers. I wonder why apple is not making something like this .
