Android Bluetooth Controller with mouse support?!?




This could be the key to DOS adventure gaming on a tablet.



 Nyko Playpad Pro Bluetooth controller. Has anyone tried this?  I saw a demo of this and thought it was really cool.  Looking at the specs, I found it has mouse support! Point-and-click is now a reality on Android tablets.  There is a DosBox app in the Google store, and I've tried out a mobile Exult app to play Ultima 7, but it was unplayable without mouse.  Yes, I suppose you could use a bluetooth mouse on most tablets, but this is a lot more versatile.  Wish list!


The iDroid Bluetooth Gaming Controller from ThinkGeek is also extremely versatile, including controller, mouse,  and keyboard support, AND works as an iOS iCade app controller!
