Having said that, the SteelSeries Nimbus is a rock-steady controller with sturdy buttons and knobs! However, there is a reason that manufacturers leave their brand on their products, and it is because of quality standards. I have had my share of these in terms of “Type-A” controllers (also known as knock-offs”), and it is easy to get drawn into these products – they look the same as the original but cheaper. Furthermore, if these controller parts do not stand up in terms of durability, then you end up with a paperweight and money flushed down the drain. If it did not, you can pretty much consider the controller a dud.

I have probably mentioned this on more than one occasion – no matter what devices are compatible with a controller, or how it looks in terms of ergonometrics… at the end of the day, the responsiveness of the d-pad, sticks and buttons take precedence. Lack of a mobile clip pretty much limits the product to the constraints of your home system / whatever flat surface for your iPad and makes gaming-on-the-go with your iPhone/iPod Touch an unfortunate afterthought.

With devices at the mobile level being the most portable from the line of supported Apple devices, it would make more sense to physically connect it to the controller to further leverage this portability.

Not that I would be lugging my TV around with me or intend to prop my iPad on top of a controller – these two products are heavy enough that positioning is not a big deal (the iPad can go onto any flat surface, too).

The one setback I see in this, however, is the lack of a clip or device holder on the controller. If I was ecstatic over that, what more if I have a controller that works on the various iOS products my family has at home, and am paying even less?

I have always been a fan of a product that provides versatility regardless of platform – if you follow me on this site, you will know how much I love my Hori Fighting Edge as it is currently compatible with an Xbox 360, a PC and now a PS4 with the use of a Brook Converter. This multi-platform enjoyment only cost me less than USD 200. Using the Nimbus with your AppleTV not only increases the lifespan of your AppleTV’s remote control, but it also provides you with a more intuitive and familiar means of playing games from your TV – it pretty much becomes a console to play your favorite iOS games on a larger format screen and in HD. iOS HD gaming on a big screen, here we come! The SteelSeries Nimbus works on the AppleTV. Counting those in and you will see that this product will support iOS devices from 5 years back – that is a lot of products, a lot of support, a lot of potential mileage for a gamer who buys this product. That does not include the versions that have varying gigabyte capacity. In fact, let us do a quick count: 9 iPhones, 8 iPads, 2 iPod Touches and 1 Apple TV = 20 Apple Products! What is pretty amazing about it, though, is the vast number of models listed WITHIN each product. You bet! If you look back at the supported platforms, you will see that it supports 4 main Apple products. So it works with ALL those Apple Products listed?

“Well, if Apple has it on their site, then it must be good!”Īnd there are a bunch of reasons why they get the boost from Apple, which we will go into one by one. In fact, if you look into the Apple Store website and search for controllers, it (along with other models from SteelSeries) shows up within that category. So let us get to it!įrom the onset, the SteelSeries Nimbus already has one thing going for the product – being a recommended item by Apple.

Not to say, though, that a previous review I did for another controller (the Gamevice) is not in that same level, as this product also gets props from Apple. These two products, while serving a similar purpose, have their own unique little features that set them apart from each other and from the rest. When I wrote about using game controllers for iOS devices, I knew that there would be a select number of products that could be considered the cream of the crop for smartphone controllers in the market. What I was not aware of (and in doing this SteelSeries Nimbus Wireless Gaming Controller review) was that I would be sharing about a product so great, Apple endorses it.
