Atari Arcade - Duo Powered iPad Joystick

The ever-lovely GameSetWatch noticed that Atari is about to start selling the aptly named Atari Arcade - Duo Powered Joystick for the iPad and, well, I thought I'd let you all know. It will after all be a hopefully modestly priced add-on that will let retro gamers enjoy their favourite arcade games the way they were meant to be played; via joystick that is. The thing will obviously be compatible with Atari's Greatest Hits app, though I'm pretty sure a variety of other games will also be playable.
