The only annoying part is the lack of iCade support in Pinball arcade ... It's VERY EASY to implement : the iCade is a simple bluetooth keyboard ... (I can give you the keys the iCade emulates if somebody is interested ...).
For the moment we have to jailbreak our iPads and use Blutrol ... not very convenient !


This is close to perfection mate.

Can you put up a video with you playing pinball arcade?

Very nicely done man.

So if the iCade is just a normal BT keyboard, does that mean iCade-enabled games can be played with a keyboard as well?
I think so, but it won't be convenient : when you press a button on the iCade, it simulates a letter and when you release it, it simulate another one ...

By the way, in my configuration I used :
Right OG
Left LV
Launch KP

I don't know if a developer is reading this, but here is (what seems to be) a useful link for iCade support : http://www.raywenderlich.com/8618/adding-icade-support-to-your-game

Thanks, I have to print the decals and find something to prevent the iPad from moving when I'm playing ...

My ipad is gone with my girlfriend for a week, I will try ASAP ... ;)

I never considered using it on its back. obviously the best way now I see it. well done. I had been working out all sorts of over engineered ideas to play pinball on the Icade. That said, after getting hooked on pinball again, I decided to build a PC based cabinet and play games on a bigger setup now.

My page has a few controllers detailed, along with some info on iCade mods and joystick/switch replacements and additions. figured it may help someone here at some point.

I know for rooted Android users Shane from RGR and GRG has put together a config file to use with a Wii Classic Controller (that's got double triggers and twin analogue sticks).
I'm pretty sure he's posted on here-He's 'Darkuni' I think.

EDIT: Not much use to iOS peeps I know (That's me Too!).
I think a simple implementation of BT keyboard support by FS.
L-SHIFT/R-SHIFT with L-CTRL/R-CTRL a la Visual Pinball would be a start for At Home play...

Doesn't work for me either. (Original iCade)

I have it working in landscape mode, but for some reason portrait mode won't work. I got it to work by starting the game in landscape mode, and then I just pressed the bottom left and right buttons. The game worked fine. The upper right iCade button made the game pause, and the upper left button was the plunger I believe.
