I recently got ahold of an iPad 3 and bought a few shmups on it which i'm really enjoying.
One of my purchases was Danmaku Unlimited 2 which for 2 euros is pretty much a steal and a very nice game.
I just stumbled across this review, where it is shown being played on an iCade:

Now correct me if i'm wrong, but what i am seeing here is that the input lag is absolutely horrid. It seems pretty much unplayable this way.
So i was thinking - is this the same for all the other iPad shmups, including the cave games?

Re: iCade
The iCade connects through Bluetooth, right ? Is that neccessarily a bad thing ? I mean, isn't the PS3 controller connected the same way ? So, maybe it's down to the implementation after all.
Wanted to pick up an iCade along with a iPad for quite some time, but somehow can't justify the cost, if I don't use the iPad for anything else. You should get the Vectrex package!

Re: iCade
Oh, nice one.
This seems to work quite well. Maybe Danmaku Unlimited just has some bad implementation of the iCade?
I mean we have discussed the role of input lag to death on the forum and i guess that some amount of it might be ok, but that seems unplayable.
