We will get our first actual look at these controllers at PaxAus later in the month, but if you are so inclined EB Games around Australia have begun taking pre-orders for both the MOGA Pocket and Pro systems.
The MOGA Pocket Controller sports dual analogue sticks, shoulder triggers and four action buttons, and connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to consumers’ existing smartphones and tablets. For MOGA enhanced games this transforms the Android device into a precision gaming systems – with no extra hardware required.
The MOGA Pro Controller is designed for mobile gamers looking for extended playtime. Designed for comfort and control, the MOGA Pro has full-sized grips, dual analogue sticks and a D-pad. Unlike the MOGA Pocket, there is no need for batteries as the controller is fully rechargeable and also HID enabled to grant a mobile gamer access to a wider collection of gaming titles.
“We’re really excited to be bringing the MOGA gaming ecosystem to the Aussie audience as it’s already been a proven game-changer in the US and UK markets” commented Eric Bensussen, President of PowerA. ''Going beyond the simple touchscreen point and flick mechanisms, our controller gives users full control of their character or conquest, whilst also allowing the graphics to be shown off in all their glory. MOGA is shifting the dial for smartphones, making them not just mobile social media and comms devices that we know and love, but also powerful and engaging gaming devices!”
