About Skylander Portal Controller

A Windows app that wraps RPCS3 (the PS3 emulator) so kids can manage the emulated Skylanders portal from a phone or iPad over the local Wi-Fi. Launch it from Steam Big Picture: a QR code appears on the TV, phones scan in, pick a profile (PIN-gated) and a game, and drive the portal slot by slot from the family's figure collection. You supply your own RPCS3 install plus firmware and game backups; the app ships no game or firmware content.
