There's an iPhone-sized cabinet in the works too: http://toucharcade.com/2012/01/08/icade-drops-the-cabinet-new-iphone-version-also-coming/ I like the range. Really healthy. I just wish they all had good side buttons for pinball flipper control.

ok, first post is finally up to date. thanks everyone for posting updates to new apps they found, and developers!
pac-man championship edition dx Glad to see you and others wanting an ios version with icade support as well! I really think Namco should get on it now!
Because TAITO is releasing their own competitor to the iCADE. We'll be lucky if they choose to use the same key presses, and therefore have compatibility....
http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/01/09/blutrol/ For the jail breakers... Not sure about the $7, but if it works as well as the video suggest I think it would be worth it. Lots of games seem like they would gain a significant amount of awesome with this.
arcade borders Just putting this out there to see what people think but, after looking at the ads for the new icade (which shows the asteroids game with border art), I'm wondering if this is a feature that can be added to imame (if us ios users are lucky enough to get a future update)? MAME on my computer has the capability to add cabinet art, I think. Anyway, rather than adding more stuff to the surface of the hardware to achieve this it seems like a better approach would be to address it in the software, to be able to add it as an option.
I'll bite for $7 and let you guys know how it works out. EDIT - Ok, spent about ten minutes or so with the app. Pretty damn cool so far. I tried it with the following: The Bards Tale - works fantastically for this game, seems real easy to control. Speedball2 - didn't work at all, if the game uses a "floating" dpad/virtual analog stick then this won't work at all. Galaxy on Fire2 - bliss! Street Fighter 4 - works great, not arcade perfect as the stick leaves a bit to be desired but like the vid says MUCH better than the touch interface. I also tried the Playstation1 emulator psx4all and it worked well enough too. If you have an iCade, iPad and $7 you should certainly think about getting this thing. Once the smaller iCade handheld unit comes out I think this $7 may just pay for itself over time!
This doesn't seem work with any of the iPhone genesis ports or the turbographx-16 emulator because they don't actually rotate the screen. Technically the TG16 emulator "works" but the stick is rotated 90 degrees. No luck with the Pac-Man games ether, not a huge deal since most of them are in MAME but the lack of Pac-Man CE support is kind of a bummer. So far I've gotten it to work with the iPad versions of NBA Jam, Robot Unicorn Attack, Sonic CD, Rally-X, Minecraft, Tetris and Sync Simple.
This is what I've been waiting for, gonna try this on my 3gs later and will love it on my 4s as soon as its jailbroken (signs point to this week). Now I just need every iCade game to have a toggle switch so I can finally map buttons correctly to my iControlpad, as some of the iCade translations make start or R the fire buttons. Need to test on GBA, PSX, bards tale, sonic 4 and cd, gta3, and all racers i own
Just got an iCade! Does anyone have a few personal recommendations on iOS games that I should pick up? Games I've got so far: Super Crate Box iMAME Pix'n Rush DX Atari Greatest Hits
