Product Feature and HOLIDAY TOY GIVEAWAY: Plush Toy Controllers for Mobile Games by ZowPow Toys (CLOSED)

My brother “Shoe”, the gaming guru, recently introduced me to ZowPow Toys, winners of VentureBeat’s 5th Annual GamesBeat 2013 Who’s Got Game Innovation Showdown competition.

ZowPow Toys beat out 40 other startups with their newest innovation, adorable plush toy controllers for mobile games.  They officially launched the Tiny Plane Game Controller today, a plush toy in the shape of an airplane and contains ZowPow’s proprietary sensor technology that allows the player to control the in-game airplane shown on-screen by moving the toy around.

Before we had smartphones and tablets, we had toys.  From the beginning of time, people have played games with physical things: a stick in the woods, a ball, or stuffed animal — a plush.  As physical creatures, it’s natural that we bond and form highly emotional connections to real toys we love. – ZowPow Toys

Watch this teaser and see the innovative gaming accessory in action:

NOTE:  Currently these controllers only works with iOS devices. Android compatibility will be available soon.
