Yeah, was thinking the same thing. Seeing as they are one of the, if not the, best looking games on the AppStore, it is a shock to see them both not updated for iPhone 5/iPod Touch 5th gen. support yet.
The Sandbox has just been updated and is also now part of the list of games supporting the iPhone 5 widescreen display http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=163542&highlight=iphone5
So apparently the next version of the Appshopper app will be have a new sort option for widescreen apps. http://appshopper.com/blog/2012/10/30/a-quick-update-on-iphone-5-support-in-the-official-appshopper-app/

Some of you might've seen this comming, but i won't be updating this thread anymore. This is because of a couple of reasons: Personal interest in these updates has dvindled down a lot, a lot of the apps i wanted to get updated has already been so and most new apps are alteady in widescreen. These updates aldo take up a bunch of my time, half to a whole hour every day. With both work and school i simply don't have the time anymore. Appshopper app will soon allow for easy widescreen-finding and so make my work mostly obsolete. I appreciate all the kind words and hope to see you all on forums
My old thread got closed for some reason and I've been refered here so here it goes: So anyone here has a list of shmups that support the iPhone 5 screen? The only ones I have played so far are J.A.M. (Jets Aliens Missiles), Phoenix HD and Dodonpachi Maximum. Are there any other (good) shmups for iPhone 5 out there? Sorry if this already exists but search didn't turn up anything useful.
Thanks for this thread ! I've bit the bullet and i'm getting my new ipod touch tomorrow. Widescreen (and less crashes !) here i come. Thing is i have about 550 apps on my ipod touch, nervous a fair few wont work on ios6 but i'll soon find out ! As long as my iMame works okay i'll be happy
Good luck on your iPod touch 5th gen.I have it for ~3 weeks,and I absolutely love it.I choosed the Black&Slate 32GB model,and the un-optimised apps don't even bother me. What color and size did you bought?
Oops Well the egg was on my face. I thought the new devices would auto scale if you had the code written already for that sort of thing. Turns out you actually needed to build against the new SDK and some iOS 6 stuff :| I resubmitted all our apps with new compiles and they should all now support widescreen properly. Sorry about that.
