Backbone was a company built around a confluence of two separate ideas. On the one hand, there was the incredible rise of high-performance mobile gaming, and the need for better controls than just a touchscreen.

On the other hand, there was the rise of cloud gaming services, offering access to vast libraries of games powered by remote servers, yet displayed on any number of local devices, from your TV to your smartphone.

While there are plenty of mobile gaming controllers on the market that offer a comfortable control system for mobile gaming, there aren’t really any devices that manage to act as both a robust mobile gaming controller and a partner for cloud streaming.
