find ports… but the lack of controller/arcade stick support is no good

I enjoy playing games with a controller on iPad. Being able to play these games with the controller would be amazing but unfortunately there doesn't appear to be any functionality for it.

楽しいけど操作性が…

iPad mini 7でプレイしています。
キャラが動く方向がスクロールした方向と微妙にズレていたり操作性がかなり悪いです。
またローディングも長めで時代遅れなアプリだとも思います。
でもまあそれ以外は内容は楽しめましたし悪くはないのですが…。
