playing games on the Mini - don't bother?

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 ?

I have downloaded the four files which ones are needed to be installed?
Can you please provide some directions? Thanks.. :lol:

Unzip the gfdoom_zip and then add doom1.wad file from the website then transfer whole folder into \storage card\program files on the device. Create a shortcut to gfdoom.exe and off you go. To get to landscape mode in doom select options - low resolution and it switches.

its switching to landscape but its upside down

i've been playing tetris... nothing gets better than that. i really don't like the high-end games that require you to do a lot. something simple that just uses the d-pad is cool by me. i'm looking for pac-man, and maybe some good card games.

Can anyone recommend any good scrolling shoot-em-ups? I used to love playing SWIV, Xenon 2 Megablast, Project X, etc. back in the days of the Amiga.
I'd also like to find something along the lines of like Hexic (free puzzle game on the XBox360 HDD), Columns, Puzzle Bobble, etc. Fond memories of Breakout too, so a PPC equivalent would be cool.

A remake of the great X-com PC game. This will keep you busy for ages. Completely free

Skyforce is a cool game, Astraware do something similar to bejewelled called gem jam i think.

MUST HAVE: Killer Games List!

Allright, after much trial and error. I have installed 72 thousand different games in my hermes, I have narrowed down all of the list to just a few.
OK, get these.
Age Of Empires Gold Edition - Woo gotta have it.
Flux Challenge - Kinda a space racing game, cool music, really showcases some of the potential cool graphics of the Hermes.
Pocket UFO - X-COM: UFO Enemy Unknown - It's absolutely free too! I can't stop playing this game, it is rated as the number 1 best game of all time by IGN magazine!!! http://pc.ign.com/articles/082/082403p1.html check it out. Honestly I HONESTLY LOVE THIS GAME.... Play it, you won't be able to stop, and it is free, you can find it anywhere on the interweb. EHEHHE
Pocket Nester - So cool, then I put every cool nintendo rom on my device (that I actually own of course hehehehe)
Snails v2.0 - Little worms clone type game, kinda fun
Tower Of Souls - Looks awesome, I havn't played it yet, but one day I will ehhehhe, a diablo style looking game.
Warring Nations - Looks really cool, kinda like Age of Empires
ScummVM - Lucasarts Emulator, I have actually seriously purchased all of the Scumm games ever made, I am a lucasarts freak, and they all work, even, Full Throttle, this is honestly one of the most amazing features of the Hermes! ehheeh. serious.
FreeSCI - Sierra SCI Emulator - Play Codename Iceman, Kings Quest 4-6, Space Quest 3-5, everything on the Hermes. Now the only problem with this emulator is it runs a little slow. I have however played Space Quest 3 without much of a problem. So nice.
Ok everyone, there has got to be a billion games out there, lets make a fun list... cuz why did we get a Hermes if it wasn't for anything else other than to show the stupid psp guy sitting next to you that he wasted his money.

Solitaire City - a Collection of card games with online hiscore, very addictive
-Kha

Hehe, nice list
I liked the scumm, thank you, I will definetly try these out ^^
And try out:
Arvale: Short Tales is a light Role Playing Game with Four separate stories to choose from. Now this is a real good game, the same maker has some really nice other role playing games

some games I play on my device are:
realdice multiplayer championship poker (you can also play this game over internet with eg umts or gprs)
astraware bejeweled 2
worms world party - awsome!
astraware zuma
spb arkaball
spb bubbles

I'm currently playing Syberia. An adventure with nice graphics.
From the graphics point of view, I still prefer TombRaider, which actually is an exact clone of the first part for the Playstation.
What is regarding the bragging in front of a PSP guy: Forget about it. I own a PSP and despite of its much higher graphics abilities (watch Wipeout and Syphon Filter), the controls and the screen are just better, period. Maybe one day the graphic capabilities of PPCs will be the same, but still, the handling and controls is just awful for many games. Some games are great with the touchscreen but for most games, the gameplay is crap.
Sometimes on the closet, PPC games are good, such as Kevtris, but for real gaming, I stick to my PSP or XBox.

Couple more to add to the list that I play a lot, all are not free/shareware i'm afraid:
Arvale II (PDAMill): Top down RPG with turn based battle system.
Multiplayer Championship Poker (Real Dice): Texas Hold 'Em over the net, has single player mode as well.
Monopoly (Handmark): Bit sad I know but it's a classic
SkyForce (Infinate Dreams): The definative screen scrolling shooter
Street Duel (Pixelogic): 3D Racer
Warfare Inc (Handmark): Great C&C clone. No net play but multiplayer over bluetooth. Think this a better choice over Strategic Assault
I also have Worms World Party, Tomb Raider and Flux Challenge but they have already been mentioned and I agree that they are a must have. Pocket UFO is wicked if your an old XCOM/UFO lover (ME!!) and as said in an earlier post it is completely free.
S.K.

KRally, Edge, Skyforce Unlimited, some 4Pockets and Inscenic titles, SuperTux, Gold Miner Joe - my personal picks from the last year.
Also make sure you check out my games reviews in the General forum here

I have a quick question...
What games are specifically multiplayer over the internet... is texas holdem the only one? this I think could be the coolest feature for some games like monopoly and what have you... but alas I think a lot of people would probably cut off because they would be at work or something... LOL

http://software.palminfocenter.com/product.asp?id=8859
Played with it a few minutes and bought it! If you try it put the 8525 on landscape before you launch the app. Its a little hard to move left and right with the joy stick but after a while it okay and the game is ver cool.

Check out my Multiplayer Bible; it's been linked in from several of my games review (make a forum search for "Multiplayer Bible" in the General forum). It discusses all the multiplayer titles.

Maybe a noob question but are these games PC versions or Pocket PC versions. Just that i've got a few old PC games and was wondering if its possible to install them on my PPC. If their PC versions how would i go about installing them on my PPC.
Thanks for any help its appreciated

I dont think thats possible. you might be able to play old DOS games using
Dosbox. But im not sure.
My favourite game is Syberia. Definately the PPC. But 200MB heavy.
Then Riven and Myst, followed by Return to Mysterious Island.
Also good:
Ages of Empires Gold
Need For Speed
Brainstorm
Resco Diamonds
Quartz2
Warlords II
Doom
Anthelion
Argentum
Everquest Trilogy
Yahtzee (very fun)
Arvale 1 and 2
man, i have so many games, i dont know how to finish this list.

How do you guys get these old Windows/DOS games to work on your phone? I've got a BUNCH of them and would love to be able to play them again.

Although they are the same titles, they are especially rewritten/ported for PPC.
Some of them have just the executables ported, and use the same level/map/artwork files from the original CDs, so it's a good thing that you still have them.
But no, your Win/DOS collection won't work on PPC out of the box, but you could search for the titles on PocketPC gaming and software sites to find what your options are.

OK. Thanks for the info.

Pretty much forget them - it's only with selected games that emulation works (see for example Legend Entertainment's old adventures played on VGA Pocket PC's under Pocket DOS).
However, there're interpreters, whoich do interpret for example Lucasfilm and sierra games. Also see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1095219&postcount=8 and, of course, my articles ("General" forum here); I've published a lot of info on this question in my articles too.

Gamez Gamez Gamez!!!
Woo.. didn't realize people had such a passion for games.. thought it was just me!... Allright.. I am going to try all of these games posted here, for some reason, I baught Syberia and installed it on my HTC but it never actually worked, just figured I wasted my money and stuff... but that was with the Japanese-O rom on there, so I will try it again with the English rom and report back, I will update my games list in a couple days with a short review of each game. But still my number one favorite game thing.. is the Lucasarts Emulator ScummVM, honestly, it is perfect for a haldheld device. Even a couple games are free for it like Beneath a Steel Sky and something else I can't remember, get it, install it, then install day of the tenticle and sam&max hit the road... man o man.. are those games ever entertaining on the HTC, paired with a bluetooth wireless headset, it is just unbeatable. Next if we could just get the other Bluetooth stack runnning properly ... we would be set.. oh well.. i guess patience is a virtue.... or so my mom sayz.

I've just got KRally but am having problems with it on my MDA Vario II.
1) It doesn't seem to handle 2 button presses, e.g. if I'm accelerating and then turn (using hte d-pad), the car stops going until I press accelerate again!
2) using the stylus to steer causes pretty bad slowdown
Anyone got any suggestions on how to avoid either of these problems?
I've e-mailed their support but no word yet.
cheers

It seems that this is a known D-pad issue of Hermes. Combined with other hardware presses, D-pad behaves this way.
Some solutions would be:
- set auto acceleration AND auto turbo in K-Rally options, so you don't have to press other buttons except D-pad
- use arrow keys on the physical keyboard instead, they work ok combined with any other button (yes, K-Rally works great in landscape, too)
- map left-right in game options to other buttons (although I tried mapping them to softkey buttons and the game slowed to a crawl)
As reported on the net, the D-pad issue is known to HTC and maybe (hopefully) they will address it sometime:

Evo as gaming device

I was curious as to how many are using their Evo as a gaming device as well as its other uses. I started off playing some of the simple arcade and puzzle style games but I have recently been playing a couple of fps games from gameloft and I realize that there is a lot of potential for the evo if the developers will continue with it.

I'm playing home run battle 3d and a couple of other games.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Yeah I have been playing quite a bit of old NES games with nesoid.

CM6 + wiimote + wii steering wheel + gps dash mount + dremel + gorilla glue = emulator fun. I have been mostly playing old SNES games, but I have a 40 minute bus ride to & from work so I have to kill the time somehow.

Until I saw the demo for NOVA and Sandstorm I never realized that 3d gaming had come so far for android. Those are the 2 main games that I am playing right now.

It's perfect for RPG's which is my favorite type of games. Play final fantasy tactics as we speak. I never owned a ps1 myself so theres a lot of rpg games for me to play.

Am I the only who likes Meteor Blitz? It's just about my favorite handheld game of all time! Like a Geometry Wars mobile.
PSXDroid is pretty nice. I continually encounter graphical glitches though, which is utterly annoying.
SandStorm is neat, Nova is a fun FPS as well. Pretty much most of Gamelofts releases are enjoyable. Well, minus Assassin's Creed.
There's a guy working on Starcraft for Android, but I think the projects gone dead in the water.
Finally, Quake III on Android. Or, Kwaak3
Also, this may not be the best place to post anything about iOS, because I know quick people can be to hate on the iPhone. But Steve Jobs aside, who else is impressed by Epic Game's Infinity Blade and Mutant Bash TV by Id running on the Rage iOS engine?
I'm totally floored by it to be honest. Had no idea a 1GHz processor with 512MB RAM could achieve graphics on this level.
It's only a matter of time before a company creates an engine like this for Android Devices. Development is either already in the works or right around the corner.
*Cough* PSP Phone *Cough*
The prospects are incredible! The only thing that bugs me is that I use to play my old GameBoys till the battery died when I was out and about. It will just really suck if I do the same with my EVO. That would put my day dead in the water if I didn't have a back up battery or wall outlet near by....

I am waiting patiently for oooecao to release their games!

Those iOS games are insane, I can't wait till we have them on Android. Epic has already demoed their Unreal Engine on Android so we will definitely have some sick games coming soon.
BTW, what ROM/theme are you running in the pic in your sig?

I know, they just need to come out with a decent controller for handheld devices. I almost want to go out and pick up a WiiMote just for my EVO. I have a PS3 controller but I've read that it will probably never happen because of technicalities with bluetooth between the two. I use my PS3 Controller to play Halo on my Netbook, so much fun! Makes airplane flights a breeze.
Just put a vice grip on a pad with a few buttons and put on a MicroUSB connector with an input on the pad for charging and call it done.
I keep reading about people whom have tested some of these Rage iOS games complaining that the controls blow. Especially Mutant Bash TV, it's tilt shift. I mean REALLY!? I tend to get p'd off at DoodleJump, let alone an FPS.
Stock ROM, unREVOked. Theme is custom.

Better off with a epic, you got the keyboard for controls and better GPU.
which is my problem... I don't use my phone for gaming, so it has no use for me lol

Lol, 4 of my friends recently jumped on to the Epic from TP2's (we all get the same phones, its kinda wierd) But i have an Evo. I play games on mine and its pretty good, but i tell them that games play better on the Epic due to the GPU/CPU and none of them play games, haha.

I got the usual great android games on plus, snesoid,nesoid,gensoid, psx4droid. The emulators are much better when rooted with a kernel that allows for better multi touch,(I'm currently on kings bfs11). I have hundreds games just between the emulators. I would consider psx4droid unplayable unless u had such a kernel. The biggest problem with playing the games is the lack of better multi touch, and thats y I will never b unrooted again.
Swyped from my Evo

they need to change up the controllers. Instead of using the forward, back, left, right motions on the screen, use the gyroscope to do those, and then in the left hand have the movement of the gun, and in the right hand, have the shooting or w/e.

Has anyone here tried Heavy Gunner?
I've been on a real gaming spree ever since I got the Evo!
Super K.O Boxing is really nice
SpeedX 3D is my favorite!
N.O.V.A was a b*t*h to get working, but it's by far the most graphically intense game.
Caligo Chaser is alright if you like more cartoony RPGs. The best part of the game is that when you adjust your gear it visually reflects on the character, lots of choices too!
Fruit Ninja is a fun, friendly style, potentially competitive style game
I just tried Meteor Blitz, thanks for the recommendation! I do wish the movement controls were less sensitive however.
Android is a fantastic platform for gaming, unfortunately it's not the only one and developers are limited

I tried a couple of the emulators but the game rom's I downloaded showed the game on a tiny screen and the controls did not work well at all. I guess I need to try some different games roms. Sandstorm is as graphically intensive as NOVA if not more so. I tried Avatar but the gameplay was a little confusing for me at times. Bottom line is that android is a great gaming platform and the Evo is a good hard device for gaming. I have a kindle and a zuneHD and was getting ready to get a psp. Now the Evo is truly an all in one device for me. It will do what all of those will do. Sure it uses a lot of battery but I would rather switch batteries during the day than to cary 3 or 4 devices and chargers when I travel.

MMORPG: Pocket Legends. That thang was just released today.

?
so why is it so hard to get Need for speed shift? why not in the market? why are there no good games in the market? on my old iphone i played many awesome games like nfsshift, street fighter 4, fifa soccer, chaos rings most of all Grand theft Auto chinatown wars. when i look in the market, there a bunch of crappy games, i mean common no words with friends or scrabble or bejeweled? my opinion, get a 64 gb ipod touch, you get your games and great music integration with itunes, plus 32gb extra possible storage. and its thin. i love my evo but no-matter what mods i do to it its not good at graphic intensive stuff, i cant even run the ocean waves wallpaper without it choppin like Jackie chan.
p.s. also looked for pocket legends, nothing in market for that either

[Q] MAME emulator????

Good morning ladies and gents.
My transformer is on a truck for delivery and I wanted to start forumulating my app list.
I LOVE mame emulators. I built a full size arcade cabinet with working coin mech etc. That was windows of course.
All of the games I downloaded worked perfectly.
Now ive tried some android mame stuff in the past and none of the games work. So very very vew of them.
Is there any GOOD mame emulator out there that works with a ton of games? The ones I see are very restrictive.
Hoping to get a good discussion going here as to what people are using, and how many games it supports.
thanks

Mine is on the truck for delivery today too, I can't wait! I too am interested in a decent Mame emulator, I'll try some options out tonight when the tab arrives. My real reason for responding is that I want to see you Mame Cab! Post pics please!
Also, what are your control plans with the tab? On screen or Wii remote?

ill try to dig up pics of the cab.
its been a while. ended up selling it when i moved.but kept the tank stick and the xp machine. so i can build another cheap.
i ordered a bluetooth nintendo classic controller from a link someone posted here last weekend. 40 bucks.

Yeah I saw that one, nyko right? I like that it doesn't need a wiimote, I'll probably order that soon.
So there's a few options out there for android, but it looks like there are issues.
TigerArcade
Looks like there are some scaling issues, and it doesn't play everything.
Jrioni Arcade
Doesn't look like it does any better, and not sure about honeycomb support.
Any other options? I'm suprised that's all there is.

yeah. there are some out there, but nothing that supports the wide array of games i have.
i have about 4000 games on my PC that runs mame, including the original killer instinct upright etc. but none of the android emulators run it worth a damm

we should make mame emulator on android

Tiger Arcade was my favorite emulator to use on my Nexus One, but it desperately needs an update for tablets. If you try to run it, it opens in a tiny window on the screen, and navigating through the menus is incredibly difficult. I didn't even bother testing any games because I just got too frustrated with it.
If and when they eventually do update it, I can confirm that it does play most CPS2 and NeoGeo games. I'd really like to see CPS3 support in the future.
