据TheVerge消息，Kotaku网站发布了一张疑似苹果官方游戏手柄的图片，据称由罗技制造，图片中的模型属于苹果官方给出的iPhone/iPod touch嵌入式范例，同样拥有圆形 D-pad（方向键），四个操作按钮以及一个暂停键，但没有模拟摇杆，也无法从模糊的图片中得知是否设有肩上触发器。丙通MRO供应商

罗技是苹果官方的合作厂商，但其他第三方游戏手柄配机制造商早已对这一市场虎视眈眈。随着 iOS 7 的推出，这些制造商将更新他们的产品以支持新的苹果游戏手柄 API。其中手速快的，如在一月份推出 iPhone 游戏手柄Caliber Advantage controller的 iFrogz，已经宣布其产品支持新的 API。

试想一下，如果给你的 iPhone 套个手柄，然后就能轻松通过 Apple TV 在大屏幕上玩游戏，拥有同 Xbox 类似的体验，是不是很爽呢？

其实在今年的 WWDC 大会上，苹果软件高级副总裁 Craig Federighi 已经介绍了这种存在的可能性。同时他表示苹果已经同罗技、Moga 等第三方游戏配机厂商达成合作，未来会共同推出苹果官方的游戏手柄。

苹果官方也给出了两种硬件范例，一种是将 iPhone/iPod touch 嵌入的，另一种则跟传统的手柄类似 (如下图)。两款范例都具备了 D-pad、双模拟摇杆、四个操作按钮、肩上触发器以及专用的暂停按钮。丙通MRO供应商

自然，嵌入 iPhone/iPod touch 的手柄，玩家也可通过触摸品来操控。这种类似传统手柄的范式会通过蓝牙或者无线同 Apple TV 等设备连接。

Kotaku has obtained an image of what it claims is the first "Made For iPhone" controller. Purportedly made by Logitech, the controller looks similar to the guidance images Apple released when it detailed the new iOS 7 controller API. It features what appears to be a circular D-pad, four action buttons, and a pause key. The guidance images also called for either two or four shoulder buttons to be included, but it's difficult to see from Kotaku's blurry image if the controller has any shoulder buttons at all, let alone how many.

Logitech's controller is likely to be one of many to launch at around the same time as iOS 7. Third-party controllers have been around for iOS devices for a long time, but their success has always been limited by the small selection of supported games. With the launch of iOS 7, expect manufacturers to refresh their products to support the game controller API in the hope of being certified by Apple. iFrogz, which announced its Caliber Advantage controller back in January, has already confirmed that its product will support the new API.丙通MRO供应商
