Games - Galaxy Tab General

Does anyone use or have any recomendations on video game system emulators? I downloaded snesoid lite, and was having the only place I could find any roms was DroidEMUromget and was able to find roms, but when I launch Snesoid lite and locate the files to launch it jist brings me to a black screen with the grey directional and control bittons bit doesnt appear to load the game. Anyone else have any personal first hand knowledge or use any other similar apps?

[Q]Using pairable controller for android games?

Anyone knows if there's a way of using pairable controllers (e.g. ps3 and wiimote) on android games?
Specifically I want to try it for Gamelofts games, since I got Backstab HD and Shadow Guardian working, it would be more fun if I were able to use my already paired ps3 controller to use in those games. There's no input method in the settings of those games, but there has to be a way to do it. Any ideas are welcome
I just did a quick Google search and found a couple of apps available to make this happen. One of them was free the other is payed. They were listed for android devices but made no mention of the Nook specifically. Give it a shot and let us know.

I can't say anything about the Gameloft apps, but I have used a Wiimote with Xenonia 2 and some emulators. I did set it up first with Wiimote IME (I think the app is called, I can't double check android market now). That lets you easily pair the wiimote and set it as the input keyboard. Xenonia just worked with it from there. I don't think I've tried any other Android games.

I know they work on emulators, I have used my sixaxis on n64oid and snesoid. I want to use them for games made for touch screens.

[Q] Video Game Emulation

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone knows if there's any potential in getting an SNES emulator working on the KF? I've tried running two emulators but the ROMs fail to run.
Thanks.
Chainfire3D works with PSX emulator, and that's the only emulator I use.
Not sure bout SNES, but I'm running GBC Lite for gameboy color, FPse for playstation, and N64oid for nintendo 64. All working great. GBC Lite you have to pay for to load your saved games however.
i am able to run gameboid
Couldn't stop thinking about SNES after this post so went and found an emulator. Can't give ya any links or anything but google is your friend. Rom is SNesoid. Works great so far. I'm playing Crono Trigger!
I'm certain that was one of the emulators that wouldn't for work me.
Anyway, it's working now so thanks!
I'm using Gameboid, N64oid (runs awesome...), SnesDroid and FPse. For some reason SNesoid crashes when loading ROMs. Also an older version of Gameboid did the same, but i got a working one.
BTW, does someone know how to prevent the ___oid emulators from continuing to run in the background? (besides "force-closing" them, that is) It's kind of annoying

Like he said. Bring up the bottom task bar inside the emulator, click the center button to bring up settings and the other misc options, and choose close or exit. I had the same problem till I stopped bein' lazy with that home button, lol.

PPSSPP PSP Emulator working settings anyone?

Has anyone got PPSSPP to work on there S4? When I mean work, load games and be able to play them I'm having some trouble. Tried a few games that are meant to be working 100% But it will either load and show no 3d or a load a read screen.
Anyone had any luck?

I have tried naruto shipuden kizuna drive and disgaea. Sounds won't turn on to disgaea but is running perfectly. There are no best settings as for the moment since different games operates different setting modifications. PPSSPP forum will be much accurate since they have new updates from there.
I've never heard of this I only heard ePSXe. This one can play PSP games while ePSXe only PSX games?
Only psx or ps1 games

me to problems ppssppm on s4
I to am having problems trying to get my psp rar and iso's onto my samsung galaxy s4 . I tried to put god of war into the drive on the computer but it was too small and felll right through then i tried a a rar archive into an iso but all it sais is cant find exe command . just installing the rar it sais plaese use win winrar to unzip.??????? Ive tried alot of differemnt ways and but nothing works . I am using a 9.1 version.not gold but if I could get it to work I think I would purchase gold.
I second the above post Epsxe is the best psx emulator. I have had no troubles with it at all besides not thinking how slow games use to be, but they have a toggle frame to make it faster. I played ff7, ff8, ff9 and currently playing off tactics without any problems and good graphics.

Sideloaded working apps for OUYA

I've got a bunch of apps working, lets compile a list of working apps.
~Netflix
~Hulu
~Flash Player
~WatchESPN
~Dead on Arrival 2
~Beach Buggy Blitz
~At Bat
~Slingbox
~Adobe AIR
Other's I've got working:
- Amazon App Store
- Chrome Browser (can't exit without a keyboard)
- Plague Inc.
- Astro File Browser
- XBMC (of course)
Which version of Hulu did you get working?
None of I've tried the latest from the Play Store as well as the "modified" versions available here at XDA and neither of them work for me. The latest one loads the Hulu splash screen and then crashes, the modified ones just show the main screen no matter what I click on.
- ES file browser
- GBAoid
- Others mentioned
Have others had good luck with Netflix, while I can make it run I have had no luck with audio. Hopefully we get some official versions of some of these soon.
Here's a couple on mine:
-Falcon Pro
-Titanium Backup
Edit:
madmofo145: I had netflix up at one point, audio was hit or miss.
Haven't had any issues with Netflix, but I didn't really use it all the much either lol

How about Hulu?
It was an old modified apk I made, not the latest but it works. I'll see if I will change the new version of it

-YouTube for Google TV (works great!)

Any chance you could share the modified apk?
I sideloaded GTAIII just to try out the stereoscopic 3d support. It seems to work great, 3d display works, controller works, everything.
Then just for kicks, I gave quadrant standard a run too.
Other than that i've only tried the obvious things, busybox, Titanium Backup, etc.
It seems that all those games that didn't adapt well to having a touch screen and not a controller are the ones I didn't keep around, so now I'll have to go browsing through the play store to find them all again.
I would like an copy of that hulu apk too
@madmofo, with Netflix you need to use the touch pad and click to increase the volume. The bar is not working correctly, at like 80%~ on the bar you get no audio, you move it as high as possible, it then works.
I am running NOVA LAUNCHER which now that I finally setup makes the system a lot more accessible. The nice surprise is how well ZEN PINBALL HD plays, the plunger is triggered by the O button not the analog stick. I posted over galcon.com to ask for controller button mapping for DYNAMITE JACK, the directional controls do work already. DRAG RACING also supports the controls for driving.

I didn't even consider this would work. Would definitely like a cleaner launcher.
Do the OUYA games still show up in Nova? Is Nova easily navigated with the controller?

Yes and yes. Though I find Nova easier to use with the touchpad than the controller itself.

Good to know. Maybe I'll try one of the Windows 8-esque tile-based launchers.
My MOGA came with Sonic CD and MC4, loaded them both, Sonic CD works flawlessly, MC4 won't launch
I tried Zen Pinball HD because I wanted to see if the stereo 3D worked - loaded and ran no problem (runs considerably better than the pinball game in the Ouya store - but no analog for the plunger which is a bit of a bummer.)
And yes the stereo 3D "just worked". My TV detected it and switched into 3D mode without me having to do anything. Only problem was one game of pinball was enough to give me a headache...but that's not the Ouya's fault!

Have you tried copying over data files for any other tables? I made my first attempt and now the app crashes at the splash screen.

No I haven't. The Ouya is my first tegra device so I haven't used any tegrazone apps before and haven't tried buying any additional tables yet.

Legion have you tried Modern Combat 4 the latest meltdown update Gameloft secretly added generic HID support and works perfect out of the box check it -
Also I know Ouya supports Dual Shock 3 pad native, have you tried pushing permissions to system and installing Playstation Mobile?
Direct Download of my PSM Flashable Zip (Or open and push manual) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1467214&d=1352405263
Cant test yet as still waiting for my Ouya

I've tried several different versions of Modern Combat 4 and unfortunately none of them work. Since the OUYA doesn't have the Android market the only Gameloft games that will work are from the WAP store, but even then the only one that's working right now is Dungeon Hunter 4. I REALLLY want Blitz Brigade but no matter how I try to sideload it it refuses to work.
PSM does work but I haven't experimented with it much.
You maybe able to later (Check this last post in the Google market fix thread/Ouya developement - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43203621&postcount=31) This MC4 with HID is the latest Google version BTW.

Anyone else have trouble with The Conduit force closing?
I got to the 2nd mission (the one that looks like they pinched it straight from Goldeneye on the N64), about half way through and the game just closes back to the Ouya menu. Anyone know of a workaround? It's seems like quite an entertaining game.
Your post says all gamevil RPGs have you actually been able to get Dark Avenger to work? if so how? I am unable to get even past the intro screen and controller seems to do nothing.
-thanks
Have you tried installing an apk installing the Google Play Store on the OUYA? Don't know if this is possible and haven't tried because my OUYA just got in.

You can't just simply install the apk for the Play Store on OUYA. The Play Store relies on several Google frameworks that aren't present on OUYA, and even if they were, you'd need SU on the console to push the Play apk to system and set the relevant permissions. There's a whole thread about it on the forums somewhere.

As I said I haven't tried it or read about it. Just was making a comment. Have been reading an other topic that they have installed the apk but still don't have any luck on getting apps to work more easely.
How do you get Jet Set Radio to work? I tried to copy the APK and the Android/obb/jetsetradio (or android/data/jetsetradio i can't remember) folder as well but it crashes when I try to launch it

I haven't been able to get it to work outside of getting into the main menu either. That entry refers to their retro styled rpgs like the Zenonia series, Illusia series, Destinia, etc. I'll edit that part of the list for future reference. Sorry about that.

Jet Set Radio works great for me, make sure you are copying the obb file to Android/obb/com.sega.jetsetradio/ because as you have it written won't work.
Alright i'll try again. thanks!

Edit: The game won't open, the screen just flashes with a spinning loading icon.
I'm downloading it from the market now
If it doesn't work with the Ouya controller I can also test with PS3, 360, and Nyco Playpad.
Hey guys and gals!
I'm still pretty new to the ouya but I'll try some stuff over the weekend.
Got GTA VC and III working great, no problems.
You can add Pocket League Soccer by Kairosoft to your list of working games. It works with the analog stick and the d-pad although you have to use the touchpad for pressing things. I'll test more Kairosoft games and I guess they'll work the same way since they are pretty much the same games.
How did you get beach buggy blitz to worm with controller?
@paco8 thanks!
@gottahavit Click on the settings button using the touch pad then click controls then choose the "gamepad" option
Galaxy Hero has controller support, but it's a bit wonky and at times you still need the touch pad.
I'm trying out Spectral Souls right now. When it finishes installing (It validated my Play Store Purchase) Ill post how it goes.
Ok, time for some more... Sadly though, my logitech wireless mouse and keyboard don't work. Probably cause they are 5 years old. xD
Anyways, here we go:
Age of Zombies - black screen, not working.
Beat Hazard - working though only with the touchpad which is quite difficult. I used the fixed thumb stick and had to double-tap and drag it around.
Death Worm - working yet impossible to play with only the touchpad.
FIFA 12 - won't download data. I didn't try transferring data.
Gunman Clive - working really good thankfully after changing the controls in the pause menu.
Heist: The Score - downloads data fine, but I can't navigate the menu at all.
The Impossible Game - navigating the menu with the touchpad and jumping with the O-button works great, yet placing markers only works with the touchpad which can be tricky.
Infectonator - only with the touchpad which is quite difficult.
Space Invaders: Infinity Gene - only with the touchpad and in portrait mode which makes it practically unplayable.
Kami Retro - downloads data. Does not respond at all though after that.
Osmos HD - of course very hard to play with only the touchpad, but it's working.
Pac-Man Championship Edt - working with the controller, although it is in portrait mode and strangely there is no sound.
PewPew 2 - also strangely only gives out audio yet nothing working on a black screen.
They Need To Be Fed 1 - loops the first few seconds. Not playable at all. I haven't purchased part 2 yet.
I will test some more soon. This was rather unsatisfactory. Only Gunman Clive and The Impossible Game are enjoyable with the controller IMO yet maybe Beat Hazard, Death Worm, Infectonator and Osmos HD will be easier with a mouse.
my favorite game ,WINDUP KNIGHT works super perfect
