If that pseudo-analog nubbin didn't satisfy your touchscreen gaming needs, ThinkGeek has revealed its own "Joystick-It" arcade stick attachment for the iPad. The aluminum stick will go on sale for $25 at the end of the month. See it action after the break.
[Thanks Rachel!]

First they loved Touchscreen... it was great, pleasant to see and use, amazing to do almost anything! Them, they come with motion controllers... "I love to not use the directional buttons!"
Now they are attaching analogs to the touchscreens to have a better play...
I love the paradox...

I'm currently developing a motorized mannequin that you control with a gamepad in order to play Kinect games with ease.

Think of it this way, Joystiq rescued you... You went astray from ThinkGeek... And now Joystiq is providing you with the link back to ThinkGeek.
And ThinkGeek is one of the best places on the internet that people will admit or openly talk about, there is alot of other dark corners of the internet people here wander.

I tried with a felt bottom chess piece on Mini Gore and Chibi Chaingun and it didn't work. Also my chest piece exploded. It's ruined.

my iPad (third iPad and second given to me after returning it to Apple to be replaced) will be sold soon so I can afford the retina iPad.
