Update: iPhone amateur development site ModMyiFone has received word from Belkin that the JoyPod is not a real product.
Original Story: Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch may be getting a gamepad and official support for it, if a purported accessory leak is to be believed. A supposed information sheet from accessory maker Belkin on TouchArcade added to a handful of claimed gamepad accessories for the iPhone.
This one, however, claims to support the iTunes App Store, the online store to buy software and games for the iPhone. Supporting the App Store implies that Belkin has gotten clearance from Apple to sell the pad, which means support for it could even be included in future versions of the iPhone SDK, the software package for iPhone game creators.
Combining touch sensitivity with motion sensing has even led Forbes to declare that the iPhone "could kill the Nintendo DS," which was the first gaming handheld to support a touch screen. Stylus support a la Nintendo DS also remains a possibility, as stylus accessories are currently on sale.
Growth driven by digital software and console hardware sales.
The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
These new paid games, game trials and “buy once, play anywhere” pricing are coming to Play.
