Is it just me or is it too small for average adult?

 

[nukemaster]

It sure is.

Would you really want a full-size Xbox 360-type controller connected to your car keys? Putting it in a purse would be bad enough, but putting it in your pants pocket would be impossible!

Is that why the kids pants are sagging so low these days?

It does need to be a little bit bigger (not xbox or ps3 size lol), however its a great idea

I was expecting a foldout.

This is neat-o.

Fucking cool! Remember, you are going to be lugging this thing around on top of your smart phone/tablet. If it's too big, it just wouldn't be practical at all.

Why do I have a feeling that some of these gadgets in kickstarter are not actually NEW!
I think someone went to an electronics expo in Honk Kong, saw something cool, took photos and checked how many come in a container.
Then you go on kickstarter, show your product photo, collect enough upfront orders to buy the container and end up smiling all the way to the bank !

@freggo - hahaha that couldn't be further from the truth in our case! As our video states, the iMpulse Controller was conceived, developed and will be made in SoCal, it is entirely a labor of love and overcoming many many obstacles and unbelievers! We got our KS funding barely a week after launch, and couldn't be prouder of our efforts! - Team iMpulse

Fair enough.
I did of course not say I was talking about 'your' product specifically , just stating that 'some' may do this. I have been to these fairs and it is always amazing to see the things they show that never make it to the US.

This would be great for your little mobile platformer games as well as NES/GB/GBA emulators.

Oh no, they use the "i" in the name in hope that all the isheeps will buy it... and i see a "ilawsuit" comming.

Now i have to recharge my keys and carry another product to use with a product that does not need it since its TOUCH SCREEN!! Whats the point of the touch screen if im gonna connect a external device to it! And whats up with all the 80' s games, i mean i do like them but how does it work with say plants vs zombies or angry birds?

Because touchscreens suck for gaming.. tactile feedback ever heard of it.
