Abstract: A bridge device communicatively coupled to an input device generates a device pair request associated with a client gaming session and transmits the device pair request to a device discovery engine operating on one or more servers. Based on the device pair request, the device discovery engine identifies one or more servers running a gaming application supporting the client gaming session. The device discovery engine then generates a linking code identifying and allowing access to the servers. In response to receiving the linking code. the bridge device establishes a connection between one or more input devices communicatively connected to the bridge device and the identified servers running the gaming application. The bridge device maintains the connection for at least a portion of the client gaming session such that data representing interactions received at the input devices is provided to the servers for use as inputs to the gaming application.

Abstract: This document describes devices and systems related to gaming-systems and gaming-system accessories. In an aspect, a display mount for mounting a mobile device having a display and a housing on a game controller is described. The display mount includes a mobile device holder configured for releasable connection to the mobile device, a controller receiver configured for releasable connection with the game controller, and an upright for spacing the mobile device holder apart from the controller receiver.
