iCade compatibility list/wishlist

Temple Run

Temple Run has iCade controls now as well. I just tried it out and it works well.

 

Any chance of Zaxxon with iCADE support?

Oh ya, the wife got me an iCADE, any word on ZAXXON making the cut for the games?

 

It indeed does! Thanks for letting us know.

Wish you could activate the resurrection powerup with one of the buttons though.

But yay... no more tilting!

 

I didn't know that, thanks.

And yes a resurrection button would be perfect.

 

I sent an email to the dev. Maybe if more people ask they'll add it.

Also I was wanting the sliding/jumping with the joystick to be optional because I notice that I'm sliding a lot by accident.

Anyway it's fun.

 

Is there even a Zaxxon game in the app store?

 

Muffin Knight is free for a day. Great game.

 

Asteroids In potrait?

Hi. I love the icade and have downloaded several of my favorite atari titles. I notice that both versions of asteroids are landscape and yet I always see pictures of asteroids in the icade ads in portrait with an overlay graphic that's missing from the one I got. Can anyone tell me what's up with that? Am I missing something, a setting perhaps?

 

The picture on the box and ads is just that, a picture. Many images like that, showing a screenshot of a game being played on a device, are doctored.

 

PAC MAN for the iCADE

Here is the link

Is this true or just wishfull hoping? Can anybody confirm this game working on the iCade?

 

Yes, it works great. iCade support was added in the last update.

 

Thank you and can not wait to play that, again thanks

 

You need to click and change your playing style.

 

Too bad. I kinda like the way it looks in portrait and with the overlay. It's still works great and is a lot of fun the way it is but perhaps atari will give us these options in future updates. It would be a nice touch, as many of the games that are in portrait (like missile command and centipede) are harder to control with a joystick because they were originally trackball games, whereas games like asteroids and gravitar are somewhat improved with a joystick because they were originally all button controlled.

 

click to change? could you elborate?

 

Controls > then select the game style.

 

Thanks for the reminder. I remembered once I went there that I saw that when I first downloaded the app but was trying to find it under settings or options for some reason. I dunno why controls escaped me Anyway, I appreciate it but would still like to see some of the overlays available in future updates. Loving the arcade at home experience though! Excited to see support for pac-man and temple run recently too! They both rock with the icade!

 

I made a post a while back on how I upgraded mine.
The important part is how to plug the Sanwa stick to the existing cables; it's a game changer (no more deadzone).

Also, Pac-Man updated for iCade? Sweet!
Now that Namco-Bandai added support for one of its games, I truly, truly hope that the future SoulCalibur port will have iCade controls.
I mean, that's an iCade-seller right there.

 

I wonder if theres lots of other games out there which have iCade control but dont really mention it too much (as you're not 'meant' to mention it on the app store description).

I mean Pacman really surprised me, didnt come out and say iCade controls. Just hope Namco do that to their others, eg Rally-X.

I've got a lot of apps on my ipod, might copy over lots of my universal ones to my ipad and do a quick test to see if any others might work which i dont know about

 

Phoenix

Phoenix is a game that has a nostalgic place in my heart that I would like to see available for icade. However, I believe I remember it being a Taito title and so I might be SOL there. Zaxxon would be cool too.
