Transform your iPhone, iPad and iPod into a console (GameDock for iOS)

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could play classic games just like old times, with two controllers on a TV? GameDock for iOS allows the user to experience the original feeling of playing with a console through an Apple device. The procedures are quite simple; all the user needs to do is plug the dock into the TV and the iPhone just like a video game console and game cartridge.

What captured our attention was the fact that the gamedock is compatible with various iCade games and dock ready games for spending quality time with your friends.  So you get two-player support and full 1080 HDTV output for the games of your childhood.

You get to select the games that you wish to play from your iOS device just lying on the couch. In case you don’t have a TV, rest assured that you could play the games on the iPhone with the two controllers. It’s compatible with all devices running iOS4 or later but for the automatic HDMI mirroring you’ll need an iPad2, iPod4 or iPhone 4/4S. If you like the gadget you could make a pledge at KickStarter for helping the developer accomplish his project.
