[CES2012] SteelSeries to release a mobile gaming-based controller called the Ion, fits in your pocket
SteelSeries is a company that, if you haven’t heard of them before, makes a lot of gaming peripherals, a lot of which are for competitive gaming whether for professionals or just the hardcore gamer. Apparently, through licensing the technology used in the Zeemote, they have developed a wireless controller that you can use on your Android device called the Ion.
Yongzh may have gotten his account closed and emulators pulled off the Android Market but that hasn’t stopped Mr. emulator himself from going elsewhere and continuing on with his emulators and updating them. One update, however, brings a really awesome feature: multiple bluetooth controller support.
Back in our interview with Hyrum Fairbanks, he let out that he was working on a Bluetooth version of the Game Gripper. Well it seems that it’s now a reality with a working demo. He’s also started a Kickstarter page to get the project more funded and to be able to make these bad boys in bulk. Video after the jump.
Android gamers, and general users as well, might be happy to know about this little gadget coming from Motorola. A Bluetooth keyboard just received certification from the Bluetooth SIG. The possibilities for this become very clear in regards to gaming if you give it a minute to roll around in your mind. Go ahead, think about it for a second.
Soundfreaq makes high fidelity sound gear for new technology such as the iPhone. Their newest system comes enabled with Bluetooth so while you are watching a movie, tv, listening to music or playing games, you can actually keep your Android device in-hand wires-free and get all the good high quality sound thanks to their Sound Platform.
It would seem as though the peripheral market for Android gaming is starting to mature more and more. First we have the Game Gripper, a great little addition to anyone with a Motorola Droid (and other Android phones coming in the near future) and now we have an announcement that Zeemote has released an SDK for Android game developers.
