Could It Be? Phone turned into Gameboy?
Yes you see it here folks, the future is coming right before our eyes, here is the Samsung GALAXY S4. Coming to T-Mobile as its first U.S. carrier on May 1st produces the unthinkable, a USB port controller turning your phone into a handheld. As you can see, it looks like a cross between a Super Nintendo and Xbox 360 controller. The Game Pad, as it is currently been called, will be compatible with the S4 and the Android 4.2.2 and all subsequent hardware and software releases with Samsung and is also compatible with 80 games at launch and comes with 8 games in a bundle.
This controller dock can be hooked to mobile phones with displays ranging from 4 to 6.3 inches. Add that a bluetooth, and this controller dock can be hooked to your television, turning your Android into a game console. While there is no release date set yet, the controller is available for pre-order from select online merchants, along with Mobilefun for 112.99! Although I do expect a price drop once it releases. What is also surprising, is that The Game Pad has received such little fanfare, I feel that can be attributed to Samsung not advertising The Game Pad to the right demographic or advertising it enough for that matter.
