300 Games with Controller Support!

Today marks a milestone in the world of iPhone and iPad gaming: 300 apps and games support MFi controllers!

With all said and done, the journey to 300 games took approximately 6 months. New games hit the store every week, with multiple compatible games generally hitting on Wednesday evening. Pricing of these games runs the gamut, with about half of the available games free or freemium, and the other half running between $.99 and $16, representing a fairly large spread.

We’ve seen amazing new iOS exclusive titles from publishers large and small.
We’ve seen amazing ports of classic games from favorite older systems, both new and old.
We’ve seen big budget, substantial games from major publishers.

We’ve seen modern classic indie gems.

Throughout the journey to 300 games, three major controllers have been released, each from a different company. In addition, even more controllers have been announced, to be available for sale in the coming months. Both SteelSeries and Moga have confirmed strong sales of existing hardware.

With WWDC on the horizon for June, the future for hardcore gaming on iOS seems bright. Many of Apple’s best engineers are working on an expanded Apple TV, presumably with game support. Apple’s controller hardware partners have announced major new products in the pipeline. The flow of new games with controller support is not drying up – if anything, it’s accelerating.

Afterpad was started a short 3 months ago, and in that time we’ve posted over 150 reviews, release notes, or links. We’ve broken major stories and cataloged every game. And we’re not slowing down.

I hope everyone reading this has enjoyed the work done for this site.
And I hope you’ll join me on the journey to the next 300 games.
