NOTE: The following options use 3rd-party devices, we offer no support for them.
PC Only:
The X-Arcade can work wirelessly with the Nulaxy Wired USB Keyboard and Mouse to Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse Adapter, including trackball support.
PC/Android/iOS - Wireless Gamepad Option:
The X-Arcade can work wirelessly on PC, Android, or iOS devices as a gamepad (vs. a keyboard when using the standard PC cables).
- X-Arcade Controller (any version, or our BYO PCB)
- Mayflash PS2 wireless adapter
- Our PlayStation 2™ adapter or our current 5in1 adapter (note: it will not work with the older model 5in1 adapters that had detachable cables).
iOS Devices only: List of iCade iOS™ compatible games.
If you own an X-Arcade and are looking to connect it up with your Ipad™ or IOS™ device, you have a great new unofficial, unsupported option.
Requirements To Use X-Arcade + Ipad & IOS
- X-Arcade Controller (any version, or our BYO PCB)
- Wii U™ Adapter with PS2 or 5in1 adapter.
- Wii Remote (1 for each player)
- Jailbroken IOS Device
- BTStack from Cydia Store
The method to get your X-Arcade working on your IOS device is first ensuring it is Jailbroken and open. Once you install the BTstack from Cydia Store, your IOS™ Device (Ipad™, iPhone™) will support any Nintendo Wii Classic Controller™. Since our Wii U Adapter functions as a Wii Classic Controller™, you can then play any game or emulator controllable with BTstack (Mame, etc)
Unsupported and unofficial hack and workaround, but fun nonetheless.
Get your Wii U Adapter here and hook up X-Arcade™and IOS™.
