The PlayCase features articulating buttons, sticks, d-pads and triggers to give you the precision control you need plus the satisfying tactile resistance you want. Each faceplate features swappable inserts to let you play your way. Your games won’t just look the same as you remember, but feel that way too.

Ready to Switch It Up?

Forget untangling cords and finding the right plugs. Switching systems is easy even when you’re on the go. We’ve made custom attachments for every default Delta and RetroArch button layout, you just need to swap in a new front panel to start playing with a new controller. Have a layout we haven’t covered yet? Contact us and we’ll add it to the queue.

See what people are saying about the PlayCase

As a lifelong fan of the GBA since childhood this iPhone case/controller has spark the memories from my childhood. I can remember the hours spent playing games and see the same enthusiasm in my own son as he is playing his Nintendo switch. This product is more than a controller but a way for me to reconnect with gaming and share that with my son.

The PlayCase is a fantastic way to make playing your retro games on iPhone much more comfortable, this is the closest my phone has ever felt to a gameboy! With how dedicated Buppin is to this project I am very proud to be a supporter!
