I've been looking around the web for some comments on playing games on the XDA II Mini, but can't really find anything. Does that mean the Mini sucks as a gaming device (I know that's not what it's for, but it's at least possible)? The button layout sure doesn't look good for playing games.
Has anybody tried playing NES, SNES, SEGA, Playstation/etc games? Is there a good way for controlling these games?
I tried snes emulator, it went ok, although there a slight delay. i guess NES would work flawless.
There are plenty of good native to the windows mobile platform games for the pocket pc and I am sure the majority of them runs easily on mini since there is a 416MHz processor. So you ll better look a bit more and try to find them! I love Monopoly and Age of Empires but also Sky Force and Worms! :wink:
I don't actually own a XDA :wink: I'm considering buying one, and the gaming aspect of PDA's appeals to me. I'm sure there are some very fun native Pocket PC games, but playing good console games on an emulator is much fun too If I could play games like Sonic and Mario on the Mini on the go, that would be awesome.
About that (or any) SNES emulator: SNES games usually have at least for buttons for controlling the game. Can these buttons easily be set on the Mini? Or is playing with onscreen buttons a drag?
Thanks for the replies so far, really appreciated!
i play everyday on my Jam instead of my PC! :lol:
i'm addicted to Worms and can't stop playing it... :lol:
Anyway i tried AOE and it's good too. The only games that i don't like on the Jam are those where u drive since it's quite hard to control your car with the standard keypad
free good basic games, classics
Can i find the WORMS game for free ?? and does it support 2 player mode ?
im searching for good free basic games, not lite the viking saga, or world of empire, just fun easy games that u dont get sick and tired of in 2 min..
anyone ?
www.my-mda-compact.info
The downloads page, you'll find many games for your MDA compact!
Does anyone know where to find some good games for the Universal. Not like those crappy QVGA and stupid puzzle games. Like any action games, 3D, stuff of that sort. I already have whack a gnome (hammer heads), nutcracker (this game sucks btw), bejeweled2 and zuma.
I haven't really been able to find any games, makes me sad that the processor goes to waste not having some 3D games.

Hi,
Xperia will be my first Windows Mobile device ever, and i had no idea in regards to gaming on WinMo. Though there are a couple of games available at Microsoft Total Access and a few other sites, most of them failed to impress. Then i found this site that had tons of games including a couple of really great looking 3D games for windows mobile devices.
Any how, i found couple of old PC game ported for Windows Mobile devices as well including sybaria 2, Myst and Myst 2, Atlantis Redux, Age of Empires, Sims 2, and many more. I downloaded these as i'll definitely want to try 'em out.
I then also downloaded ScummVM for Windows Mobile and am now in the process of downloading games for it including The Curse of Monkey Island, Broken Sword 1 & 2, and more. (notice i don't even have the mobile in my hands yet, and i'm already stacking up software and games for it )
Anyways... now i found a pack that has tons of games that are listed to have been ported for PPC (Pocket PC). The creator says: "All games run on my QVGA Windows Mobile 2003se PPC". So i'm guessing they'll probably run on Xperia too?
There are a couple of really cool games in there: Duke Nukem 3D, Need For Speed, tomb Raider, Call of Duty 2, bobble bubble, and many more.
Anyone who has a Windows Mobile and has loaded such games before or tried, can you confirm if these actually work? and if not then is it wise to give it a shot on the Xperia?
Best Regards.

All of the ones you mentioned are working perfectly on my x1.
Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462217
I've tried some of them, and they work fine. Limited fun factor though.
Try MorphGear and some old Nintendo and Sega games.
I'll be posting some I've tried and enlist 'em here. Take note though that I use it on an unlocked official X1 rom. Phones in my location came unrestricted. And yes, it differes from a cooked rom since I can't run TF3D on my device.

Hi, Folks.
Has anyone around here found a version of AstroPop that will run OK on Xperia?
Missing that game from my old Java phones.
Any help mucho appreciated.
traffic mania
hi i'm wondering if it is possible to play traffic mania on x1. thx..
warcraft2 plays fine on the xperia but it's a little slow. that's understandable. although it would be nice to incorporate the optical joystick to scroll the map instead of using the directional buttons because let's face it, the directional buttons are crap on the xperia.
anyway, props to you for porting one of my favorite games! this game brings back old memories!
People with Touch HD say that Warcraft II is moving fast, so maybe we have to tweak something. It's so slow it's unplayable on X1.
Searching
i still have transport tycoon but i´m searching for zoo tycoon or any other tycoon version like the rollercoaster
Also on my whishlist are:

Harvest Moon

Big bump, but has anybody found Lux World Domination for the Xperia? Recently played it on the iPhone and really want it available on my xperia.
I must be very baad., but it's true what i'm goin to say now. There are much more 3D and good working games on W580i than on my new XperiaX1. I'm very disappointed... Expected WINDOWS MOBILE - a lot of applications, games... there is nothing, everywhere the same, bull**** games like prince of persia or assasin. What is this? I'm goin to bring back my W580i :///
And everywhere an Iphone... My.. ***, isn't it too much? huuhhh... [Sorry abou my English..]
Well, X1 ain't exactly positioned as a gaming phone. More like a business phone.
I just got tthe nexus and I love it. Now I'm wondering what are some games that I can download that. Will play really good with the snapdragpn. Like a 3d game
Exzues, raging thunder, speedforge
There's Raging Thunder II since yesterday! Great new stuff to check out!
Also, you've got Toon Wars, Wave Blazer, and definitely (not 3d though) Doodle Jump!
I find playing 3D first-person games on a handheld device about as comfortable as gouging my eyes out with a rusty spoon. Anyone got nice 2D ones to recommend?
I have barely found any games on any phone-platform worth spending much time on, so I have another suggestion.
Get a console-emulator from the market (e.g. Snesoid) and get ahold of some good games for that console (in the form of ROMs).
Nothing beats playing super mario world, final fantasy IV, donkey kong country etc etc on your mobile
The controls might take some getting used to, but I can now comfortably play any game except fighting games (even though Mega Man is way harder than I remember as a kid heh).

Hello there before my XZ I had a xperia play but because of its outdated hardware(still a great phone though) I needed a upgrade but gaming is a big factor on my phone and I couldn't find a gaming Thread for the xperia z and since android has so many awesome games and the z is capable of handling these very well I thought to make a dedicated gaming Thread!
If your like me and have a moga pocket/pro I will also mark compatible moga games also, and if you request I will upload my GKP files for gamekeyboard for touch only games that I have set up with my moga pro!
I would include games with ps3 controller support too but I don't have a ps3 (Xbox FTW) so if people are kind enough to inform me I will add this too =)
And please also tell me what games your playing and I will try and and include them aswell!
I'll start the list with my games!
Aftermath XHD (MOGA)
Fun little zombie shooter game with great gameplay
Asphalt 7 (Moga)
Runs great everyone knows this game
Looking forward to asphalt 8
Alien vs Predator (MOGA)
The classic films made into a android game and really well too can play this for hours and nice graphics too
Bounty hunter: Black dawn
Funky fun FPS nice graphics and fun gameplay and I love the music not played it that much yet but hoping for MOGA support soon! BUT trying to set up a gkp
The Bards Tale (MOGA)
Has me in stitches laughing a fun RPG with good gameplay and a beautiful game aswell (I downloaded the 3.5GB Hd version though)
Bladeslinger
Beautiful graphics but I find combat quite repetitive and slow looks good with some cool looking bosses items are a bit overpriced though
I do like the swipe to slice with your sword though!
Bounty Arms (HID?)
Absolutely beautiful graphics but that's about it really gameplay is abit meh, supposed to be HID support it wouldn't recognise my moga in HID mode though but others have reported it does work
Brootherhood of violence (MOGA)
Nice graphics not had much time to play it though!
Carmageddon
Retro graphics (to me anyway) Fun, violent and destructive! Will set up gkp asap
Call of duty: Black ops zombies
Some graphical glitches in menus on my XZ but in game runs fine screaming for controller support though! I have set up a gkp but it's not perfect will upload if requested
Conduit HDMOGA)
Appears as incompatible with the z but does work flawlessly download apk (it's free) then purchase full game through app (£3.21)
One of my favourite games atm nice graphics and gameplay and I like the storyline aswell
Crazy taxi (MOGA)
Great game from a great console and ported to android it a great fashion smooth as butter looks beautiful and is still as fun/crazy as I remember!
Dead trigger (MOGA)
If you don't have this game go get it now it's free! Nice graphics (on max) good gameplay (can get repetitive though) but loads of guns to get/upgrade and with some crazy guns aswell!
Drift mania 2 (MOGA)
If you don't have a MOGA controller I would skip this one, but there is a light version to try!
Ok graphics but what's more fun than drifting? - actually a lot
Dungeon hunter 4 (MOGA)
Another fremium gameloft game with nice graphics, a ok story line and hours of hacking and slashing. Does get better the better armour/weapons you have.
Epoch
Nice graphics unique(ish) gameplay and pretty nice graphics can get abit repetitive sometimes though.
Expandable rearmed (MOGA)
Never played it on the dreamcast and I don't know why! One of my (many) favourite games atm and playing with the MOGA makes it so much better!
Final Fantasy 3
The DS port not played it much (my girlfriend does though) and she loves it, very cute graphics
Gangster Vegas (4)
Good graphics, massive map, gameplay not too bad (but I'm waiting on controller support) some bugs as all new gameloft games but pretty solid game overall
Gangster Rio (3) (MOGA)
It's ok, graphics are ok, gameplay is pretty poor though I wouldn't recommend as there are better style games now
GTA 3 (MOGA)
^^ Nuff said. But plays great and still as good as it was back in the day
GTA Vice city (MOGA)
^^ again Nuff said, completed on my xperia play and again (on max graphics) on my xperia z
If you don't have this games you must get it!!
House of the dead overkill: Lost Reels
I love this game, my favourite touch screen game so far, tried to map with gamekeyboard to no avail, but still it's got nice graphics, good gameplay and I can play for hours and is very repayable. I highly recommend
Max Payne (MOGA)
Never played it on any other platforms so can't compare it to them but still love this game with my moga, a deep story line and can be very chilling at time (walking across blood level) Another highly recommended game
Modern combat 4 (MOGA)
Most people have heard or seen this but it's the best COD like game we have until MC5 (maybe not best FPS) campaign is quite short but it's all about online! (to me anyways)
NOVA 3 (MOGA)
Halo clone really and pretty good game made better by MOGA controller campaign is quite long but online isn't as good as MC4
Need for speed: Most wanted
Screaming out for controller support (it is xplay optimised) but ok racing game non the less, could have made it a lot better though (free roam) Nice graphics and sound
Order and chaos online
Again screaming for controller support, but great game I enjoy playing it (can be addictive) even if they do want you to but in game currency can be achieved without
Ravensword:shadowlands (MOGA)
Loove this game it's not a perfect RPG and is quite short and the storyline is abit meh, but you will still enjoy travelling the world and exploring the beautiful scenery and upgrading your character, it's the android skyrim until they (crescent moon games) release a sequel
Rayman Jungle run
Rayman! It's looks great on our 1080p display and is a great time killer
Real boxing (MOGA)
Beautiful graphics, pretty good gameplay, I like the career mode which is quite long 60ish fights. Multiplayer would be nice though--might just be me but I find it harder to dodge with the moga.
Real racing 3
Pretty boring (to me anyways) at first and without spending real money, but once you unlock the supercars becomes a lot more fun. Still a good racing simulator with nice graphics
-I have gkp for this aswell if you want it just ask=)
Resident evil 4
Got a English version of game from Internet, pretty good love the resident evil series so nice to play on my phone
Real football 13 (MOGA)
Nice graphics, gameplay pretty terrible though and no moga analogue support fifa 12 is better
Ricky charmichael's motocross
Love this game purely for the Multiplayer, really fun and competitive, good graphics
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes I know I overuse brackets (haha)
Sorry if I go on about the MOGA a lot too but I do love it...
Would like to hear others opinions about games listed too!
!!!! More games incoming!!!
Please suggest things to make it better improve the list and also tell me what games your playing!!!
Only a small amount of my games, I will constantly update list with new games and update reviews the more I play them.

When I saw that you came from the xperia Play,I had to contribute to this thread...I still love the phone and think its the most underrated device ever,especially now that nvidia came out with project shield which is the stupidest thing ever but thats off topic...
Anyways some of my current games:
Mini Motor Racing Xperia
-Great gameplay,easy but thats what I want from a mobile game.
Kingdom Rush
-Fun tower defense game,looks great in full hd and is just the right amount of challenging
Jetpack Joyride
-It was great on the xperia play,but still awesome on a 5'' screen
Slingshot Racing
-Its cool and all,but gets boring pretty quickly,I mostly play it with friends now
Shadowguneadzone
-Great competitive fps,I discovered that I have a talent for this game...play me some time
Super Stickman Golf 2
-Amazing Game,so addictive,and looks simple but great.
Spirit
-Looks trippy and can get you playing for hours
Voxel Rush
-Pretty simple,looks cool and you can always compete with your friends since is easy to pick up
Ready Steady Bang
-Dead Simple,download it and play it with a friend.
Crazy Taxi
-Playing this all the time,it feels nostalgic and I cant get tired of it after playing on countless systems all these years.
GelaTennis
-Kinda weird at the beginning,but once you get the hang of it,it can be a blast.
I got lots more,but these are my top several at the moment. It's 4 am,but if this takes of ill put play store links and all that pazzaz
I Refuse to play games that do not save your progress amongst devices. Its by far and away my biggest bugbear with android.
thus i'm stuck playing games like candy crush and temple run 2.
As soon as developers get off their fat lazy asses and start allowing cloud saves, then i will start parting with my hard earned cash and playing more involved and better games.
But until then, they can go do one. I ain't wasting my time and money on a game, only to have to start all over again on a different device.
if anyone knows if there is a a definitive list of android games that allows you to cloud save, please provide a link. thanks.

Thanks for your input! And yes xplay was underrated and Sony could of made it a lot better than it was, the amount of times I've had that conversation is too many haha
And I agree with you about project shield haha, and Yeh I hope this thread doesn't just fade away through the many threads, just thought it might be useful to some people

Doom 3 and Return to Castle Wolfenstein played with an Ipega or PS3 pad (depending on whether I'm at work or at home), plus just about every emulator going. Like you guys I upgraded from a PLAY but still use that a lot too.
Waiting for the next update for Project S.T.A.L.K.E.R; one of my favourite games on the PC being ported to Android.
Anyone figured out how to map hard keys to NFS Most Wanted? Still use my PLAY for this game as the touchscreen controls don't cut it for me.
Despicable me, Airport scanner, men in black 3, subway surfers are some really nice games

I'm pretty sure I downloaded it through Sony Select when the EA Games 90 Days for Free offer was on, though I can't see it listed now. The Google Play version is still incompatible with the Z, as you probably know.
The 90 days offer must have expired as I just paid another £5 to continue playing it on my Z...and still without joypad support (I must be mad).
You could try the method in this link, though I can't vouch for whether it works or not:

There is a version of NFS MW with Joypad support (HID) out there
But the bad news is that it's from the Samsung app store and so will need to find someone with a Samsung device and transfer it manually.
I managed to get a copy from my other half's galaxy s4 and works fine on my Z (I own the Google Play version but as not compatible and does not have pad support what's the point of using that one).
More info if want yourself - The version is v1.5.01 but was offered as a free exclusive offer on the Samsung app store (not sure if same version still on the market but you may be able to find elsewhere).
I belive this version was used also for Samsung to demo there new external controller but it works perfectly with any HID controller (Need to change to the controller option in the settings to activate it)
EDIT - Here's the version demoed at a show (Video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZyUOgT8RAM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Just wish E.A would make controller support a mandatory option in all there games as seams them and Square Enix are the last big company developers to see that people want to play with other options then just touchscreen.
Hope by this helps

Yeah the build prop edit doesn't work anymore. You can download it and all, but it will crash:s
Reaper is the game that's been taking up my time! Amazing little RPG and it looks great! You guys should definitely play it when you get a chance if you haven't already!
