We have seen some interesting native games for the iPhone such as Raging Thunder that have taken advantage of iPhone's accelerometer and can expect games like Doom and Quake 3 to be ported to the iPhone soon.
Though all that is exciting news for iPhone users, I prefer the physical controls that are available in portable gaming consoles like Sony's PSP rather than using iPhone's touchscreen and the accelerometer.
Some enterprising folks seem to agree and are currently developing an iPhone accessory called iControlpad which is expected to be released soon will add physical buttons and joypad to the iPhone.
iControlPad is an add-on for the iPhone which adds physical buttons and joypad to the iPhone. iControlPad looks quite cool as it slides onto the iPhone like a case giving it a PSP style form factor (just like I wanted) giving the iPhone protection as a bonus. They have been able to achieve this via iPhone's serial port (dock connector) and a jailbroken iPhone.
