That would be awesome, especially for a cellphone. I'd worship that.

Not really a new idea; I mean, it's been implemented in some phones, for sure; otherwise, I'm VERY sure someone has hacked a phone to use a joystick

I am going with gamma, but a joystick on a DS or Gameboy or cellphone is worshipable.

My phone (SE k800i) has a joystick. Its tiny though and already has some problems with it. It is also only a digital joystick and not analog.

yeah if they used that exact concept on the DS, it would be perfect...but it would have to be 2 joysticks, Nintendo isn't gonna pull a PSP on me

Lmao@Xhedcak.

Ya...like I said, this idea really isn't revolutionary.

It's already been done, and it's unnecessary.

You don't need this kind of thing on a phone, lmao.

What, you wanna play bowling or solitaire with a joystick?

I could see it being quite useful in several games actually. Might and Magic II is one of them. It would be nice to move diagonally on that one, or any one of the driving games.
