I was reading this article http://bit.ly/o1fK41 and this user was able to play games on his phone with his PS3 controller.
Anyway to play games on the KF with a PS3 controller?
Not until the Blue-tooth drivers get activated on our Kindle Fire. The hardware is there. Just need's activated.

Hello, i was wondering, my ps3 controller does work on my xplay with the sixaxis controller app, so anyone knows if i buy a joystick arcade for ps3 wireless, will it work with the same app ? I would love to play tiger arcade with a stick
Hi All,
I wanted to share my experience to make it easy for you to play old Skool SNES roms using SNES emulator with wireless gamepad. This will save you some trips to the store. Many instructions indicate that you can hookup the PS3 DualShock 3 SixAxis controller to your Xoom tablet using an OTG cable. These are available on Ebay. I didn't want to wait that long and found that it would be cumbersome to have a wired connector to the bottom of my tablet that is standing up or on its docking station. So the following is how I got it working via Bluetooth.
1. Xoom must be rooted
2. Download from Andoid market the SixAxis controller checker (free)
This will check to see if you tablet is compatible, will save you from buying controller, unless you already have a PS3 (I don't)
3. If step 2 is a go, then buy a PS3 DualShock SixAxis controller (I got the blue one for about 58$ Canadian)
**write down your tablets bluetooth network mac code, will need later.
4. Go to the following website: (cant post weblink on forum cuz im a noob but try www . dancing pixel studios . com - sixaxiscontroller - tool . html)
Download the tool, install, then plug your PS3 controller via USB to your PC
5. PS3 controller drivers will install and the program will recognize your controller.
6. Update the controllers master address with the one noted in step 3.
7. Once completed, go on Android Market and buy (2.99$) the SixAxis controller program, install on tablet.
8. Start this program, it will turn on bluetooth and listen for game controller.
9. Turn on your game controller (make discoverable), the tablet will find the device and pair easily.
10. Then you can try the free version of SuperGNES from the Android Market, is fully functions except you can't save your game data. It will work on Honeycomb version and ICS version.
11. Download some SNES roms to your tablet and you're in business. I can't tell you where to get them but if you google SNES roms you are sure to find some.
I hope this makes it easier for everyone, for a 2.99 investment, this is going to make my next business trip on the long plane ride a lot more fun.
With the latest version of Sixaxis Controller, you can elimate steps 3-6. All you need to do is plug the controller in with a usb OTG cable, and the app has a pair controller button, takes less then 10 seconds, and your up and running, no worry about mistyping or messing anything up. Just unplug once it's paired, hit the PS button and your cooking with gas.
What is the best SNES emulator? once upon a time wasn't it snesoid - http://slideme.org/application/snesoid?
is there anyway to use the bluetooth for ps3 without being rooted?
I like this but instead of playing SNES games I use mine with the Mame emulator & my PS3 controller
An Xoom + PS3 pad + a MAME emulator & plenty of old skool Street Fighter games = 1 very happy man :-D

For those who arent rooted, or just want an easier alternative, the Gamestop android game controller works perfectly with all emulators and a large portion of android games without any additional software. Just pair it with the Xoom and you are off and running.
Snes 9x EX is free for the full version.
I'm not rooted or anything but I use the wii controller with all the " oid" emulators . rom buddy app+ wiimote & wiimote controller apps = hours of fun. Tecmo bowl anyone?

I have used Xbox emulation, RetroArch emulator and any other emulator, but I am greatly satisfied with RetroArch emulator.
My goal would be to play games using a wired USB XBOX controller on the TF101, remoted into my Home pc (with Nvidia card)
I believe Splashtop THD didn't used to be allowed to install on the TF101 via GooglePlay store..but now I see it available for my device.
Before I lay down $10 to test it out...anyone else done so?
(ie tested the XBOX controller via Splashtop THD)
PS. I already own Splashtop HD.

A while back I experimented with the xbox wired controller and the playstation 3 controller. I cant remember what program I used for the xbox controller but it was working nicely for Shadowgun 3 and Dead Space. Have you tried USB/BT joystick center 6? Currently I use the sixaxis controller program.
M.O.J.O. is advertised as having "MULTIPLAYER SUPPORT – Connect two or more gamepads for multiplayer games". Has anyone ever tried this feature succesfully? Is there really any android games out there that support offline multiplayer on the same device?

Thanks for the info, gwaldo. It never cross my mind.
Which emus did you use successfully with your 2nd Ctrlr? And how do you set it up? Did you plug the dongle into the USB 2.0 port?

I mostly use the N64 (Mupen64), PS1, PSP, snes, Sega mega drive, I forget their names just google and try them out..
But emulators on android have great controller mapping, so it doesn't matter what 2nd controller you have, you can map it (configure the buttons/sticks) and play it , the N64 support 4 players!
IE as explained here:
http://www.howtogeek.com/141052/how...hysical-controller-on-your-android-phone/all/
I'm hoping gameloft can do controller mapping one day!!
The mojo controller needs the USB dongle (yes I keep it on USB2 unless I have need to use a HDD), the retail controller is BT2 so it doesn't need it, but I prefer the mojo ctrlr because the middle button activates the background apps, where as the retail controller doesn't.
I just found out that we can play Badland in coop and multiplayer mode with 2nd controller. I use Ipega PG-9025 as my 2nd controller and connect with bluetooth. Hope that more android games will support this.
