Ich mag das iPodTouch.

News & General Discussion

I like it. I’m pretty much aware of the downsides, what it lacks and could be improved but i just enjoy it.

The multitouch input in my opinion has more potential than the Wii controller and brings a lot of fresh air. The store is easy to use, games are affordable and in this big pile of software there are already hidden some wonderful pearls, both apps and games and there is more to come.

What i really appreciate is that playing on the iPodTouch brings back a certain type of gaming experience which i primary was used to on the Amiga and which i enjoy a lot. Great platform!

Regarding Unity i wish that we could get rid of the slpash screen in Indie, reduce the price of Pro and a.o. get decent 2D support.

Aber das sind ja gleich drei Wünsche auf einmal. Das gibt’n Überraschungsei :wink:

(Sorry, I got no idea what “Überraschungsei” is in English … I don’t even know if these things exist outside of Germany :wink: ).

By the way, as it’s winter, snowing, cold, … if you ever get cold hands and forgot your gloves just play Katamari Damacy on the iPodTouch, i wonder what engine Namco is using. Anyway already the music and the interludes are worth the fun.
