Apple Arcade impressions, available now for people on iOS 13

I like that they invest in smaller stuff like Shantae, but I don't think I will ever get the service.
Wasn't it that they paid the devs on how much time their games are played.
There was the fear that it would affect gamedesign by bloating the games with carrots on stick that make you come back each day to get your rewards.

Only those 2? Why not just any Bluetooth controller?
What button prompts do the games show?
That's Apple TV+ I believe. Everyone gets a free month of Arcade but I haven't seen any promo beyond that.
I'm honestly more hyped for this than for many games releases! iOS games have improved a lot in quality, the price is a steal and some cool games coming out
Looks great, really looking forward to it. It'll be refreshing to have a curated selection without the BS that comes with most mobile games. Being able to play them on all devices, with actual controllers, is going to be very nice.
I kind of regret having installed iPadOS now. Apparently, devices with iPadOS get it much later than the rest.
Children of Morta should tide me over till then, but wanted to try Arcade as soon as possible.

I bought a 100 dollar iTunes card last week for 80 in preparation for this. Good for a year of this and a bunch of movie rentals...or a ton of movie rentals if this service sucks.
It does work on iPads. Looks like controllers are not supported for all games?
Also, it's $5.99/month for Canadians, in case anybody was wondering.

This is the biggest value for me. I've got two Apple TV 4Ks in my house plus an iPad and just pre-ordered the iPhone 11 Pro. $5 a month if the games continue to release regularly is a no-brainer for value when I can just pair my DS4 to any of those devices and play any of the titles!
I'm genuinely hyped, I just hope that the iPad 2018 is good enough to play these games because I don't wanna melt the battery of my XS.
I just wish they'd get the Switch Pro Controller or Wii U Pro Controller up and running. I wouldn't mind buying a Switch controller as I could get other use out of it and I already own a Wii U Pro Controller but I'm more or less forced into buying a PS4 or XBO controller to try this out, and that's basically a $50 paywall that I'm not sure I'm interested enough in to surmount.
Ah, that must be why it's already available on my iPad mini. Joining the beta had an advantage for once.
Nope. They usually only last a day. There's a twitter account "itunescarddeals" that I follow. They tell you when there are deals on cards.
I don't play mobile games at all on my phone (Android) and on my iPad I barely play anything either. Largely due to ads and mtx crap. I'm definitely curious to try this out knowing I won't be pestered to buy coins or forced to watch ads just to keep playing. I think I might end up playing a lot more games on my iPad as a result. The cost is a true no brainer and surprisingly affordable from Apple.

Article for those wondering:
Has this got 100+ games now or just over the coming weeks?
I can try the free trial now but dunno if I should hold out for more releases.
Edit: I only count 53 in the all games section. But it has Cat Quest II already?

The other Rayman iOS games are great as well if you haven't checked them out.
55 games are available right now. Not sure if that's it for September or more will be added later. Didn't they say there'll be 100+ available at launch? Then again, it's not officially launch yet, I guess. No complaints here, anyway; 55 is more than enough. Gonna try Various Daylife tonight <3
Grmblrbrr 😕 Without an ATV I am not interested for the moment, I hope this offer won't siphon all valuable game 😩
Anyway, I am still happy with the Dualshock support, a great news for the distant and local PS4 Remote Play.
Interesting. Just checked and I can join the trial. Not sure if I should do it now or wait a few months for more games to become available.
Per this article, it'll show all four buttons as blank circles, with the intended button highlighted.
Older games will show ABXY, in the Xbox layout.
It's now confirmed that Apple Arcade was released early for those on iOS 13.
There should be an OT released.

Whoa, they're right! I have the option to start now. I'll probably post some impressions and videos in a bit.
