SubscribeIon Audio to expand iCade product line
Ion Audio has revealed three new variations of its iCade mini arcade gaming controller at CES 2012 - the iCade Mobile (shown), the iCade Core and the iCade Jr.
The iCade Mobile helps get action-obscuring fingers out of the way by placing a four-way directional pad, four front-facing action buttons and four shoulder buttons in what's essentially a device dock
The docked iPhone or iPod Touch wirelessly connect to the iCade Mobile via Bluetooth

The iCade Core features a specially designed cradle for Apple's tablet (as well as the iPhone or iPod Touch), with a custom-designed pass-through slot for charging the device with a standard 30-pin cable
The new iCade Mobile features a rotating cradle allows that for either portrait or landscape orientation of the iPhone or iPod Touch
Basically a scaled-down version of the original iCade mini arcade controller, the iCade Jr. has been designed for gameplay on the iPhone/iPod Touch
Article Summary
Ion Audio is to add a new handheld controller for iPhone and iPod Touch to its iCade mini arcade line, along with two scaled-down versions of its original controller cabinet for the iPad, which started life as an April Fool prank. Currently on show at the company's booth at CES 2012, the iCade Mobile, iCade Core and iCade Jr. offer mobile gamers the chance to play it old school using physical buttons and a four-way controller or joystick instead of the touchscreen.
