An apparatus generally directed to controlling a video game. The apparatus preferably includes a tablet computer (102), an electronic game (130) communicating with the tablet computer (102), and an input device (114) for controlling movement of a virtual object (132) provided by the electronic game. Preferably, the input device (114) includes a pair of opposing side structures (116,118) adjacent opposing sides of plurality of sides (104,108) of the tablet computer (102). The input device (114) further preferably includes a plurality of input switches (120,122), wherein said input switches (120,122) are adjacent each of the at least two opposing sides (104,108) of the plurality of sides of the tablet computer (102), and a bridge structure (124) disposed between the pair of sides (116,118) to form a three sided structure. The third structure mitigates inadvertent removal of the tablet computer (102) from the three sided structure when the tablet computer (102) is fully nested within the three sided structure. |
