Help Razer Develop An Arcade Stick For The Xbox 360 [Gaming]

Popular game accessory maker Razer is developing an Arcade stick for the Xbox 360 and the company is looking for gamers to help design it.

Normally reserved for elite gamers, Razer is opening up its pro-gamer validation program to 500 new gamers. And you don't have to an expert at Battlefield 2. Razer is looking for gamers of all skill levels to join this closed community beta program.

Each participant will receive a prototype Arcade stick and provide feedback about the accessory. This information will be used by Razer to fine-tune the stick before its public release. If you want to apply for one of these 500 coveted positions, you can fill out an application here at Razer's website. Good luck.[Razer]

Atari Is Making an Arcade Joystick for the iPad [Ipad]

We think the iCade is quite the awesome. Atari obviously thinks so too because they're making their own version. Called the Atari Arcade Duo Powered, it gives your iPad a classic arcade joystick and buttons to play classic Atari games.

Games like Asteroids, Centipede, Missile Command, etc. are infinitely more fun and nostalgic when played with the joystick. There's no details on how it works but it's probably similar to the iCade in that it connects to the iPad through Bluetooth. Judging from the bare bone looks of the Atari iOS controller, it might even be cheaper than the $100 price of the iCade. Available soon. [Discovery Bay Games via MacRumors]
