I believe that developers have to explicitly support MFi controllers, so even though games may support normal controllers, I don't think they will support the Nimbus out of the box.

I did get a fairly cryptic response from MOGA: http://m.imgur.com/FomXDUU

Well, that's annoying. Thanks for letting me know!

I've been sitting for quite a while trying to connect the MOGA REBEL to my Mac. As far as I could find, there are virtually no games or apps supporting MFi controllers on Mac, but I coded up a little test application. My sample code is working just fine on iOS, but on OS X it just won't detect the controller.

Am I wrong in assuming that MFi controllers should be paired using the Bluetooth preferences on my Mac? Or is it just that the MOGA REBEL doesn't support Mac? I'd assume Mac/iOS/tvOS is automatically supported using just the iAP2 protocol?

I'm trying to play Wii/GC-games (with Dolphin) using this controller, as it is the only controller I have. Obviously I'll code support for it (Dolphin being open-source), I just need to figure out how to connect the damn thing first.

Update: Sent a mail to Moga, asking if it should support OS X natively. Hoping for a quick answer.
