So I have a dualshock connected to my n7 via the six axis app. Will I be able to use the same ps3 controller between the two devices, or do I have to reconnect it every time for the n7?
Scenario: plug dualshock into ps3 cable thing for it to be recognized by my ps3. After that will the controller still connect to the n7s Bluetooth?

Can I pair my N7 and PS3 controller via my laptop? As in, can i connect my tablet and ps3 controller to my laptop and somehow pair them through my laptop? I dont have the cable that just hooks both of them up directly.
You're Welcome...
I use this all the time with emulators. Works great.

Sixaxis has a pairing tool I found researching the app. It let me pair my bluetooth ps3 threw my laptop. Sixaxispairingtool look it up (;

yep, what he said, use the sixaxis app from the play store.
here's a quick one on how it works:
you need to set the n7's bluetooth mac address as the master address in the controller, then you can just press start in the app, switch on the controller and it will pair.
on any device with usb host capabilities the updating of the mac address can be done from the device itself by first connecting the controller with a mini-usb to usb cable and a usb otg cable.
oh and by the way, this is the nexus 10 section, not the nexus 7, reported.
I am not sure it could be connected via using laptop but yes connection between N7 and PS3 controller is possible. You will have to require cable to do so. Watch the video link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhcHTHo2hEQ which show you how to connect N7 and PS3 controller each other.

The answer is no.
Just buy the cables or root + Sixaxis app = wireless

Anyone tried a 360 or PS3 controller on this tablet ?. I have a wireless 360 controller with the usb adapter lead but the 10 doesn't pick it up. They are pretty cheap on ebay but not sure which to get :-
PS3 controller £9.99 (around $15) - Works via bluetooth and uses its own battery.
360 wired controller £12.99 (around $20) - Plugs via OTG but will draw power from the tablet.
Both I think are knock off versions so might not even work lol
There are apps on the market that provide the software and drivers needed for either a PS3 controller or xbox 360 wired controller via OTG. Then you can use either one to play emulated games
As for your cheap ebay controllers, i'm not sure.

On other devices you could use the PC Wirless adapter for the 360 via USB, and use wireless 360 controllers. The nexus 10 doesn't seem to even turn it on via otg though :/
Im in the same predicament kinda sad the ` ultimate tablet' it's the one that least has hardware support
I can't comment on the ps3 but the Xbox 360 wired controller works just fine for me.

I have both a wireless 360 controller and a cheap 360 replica. Both work like they should when I connect them via OTG to the Nexus 10.
Also, connecting a mouse and a keyboard works with OTG.
I read that OTG cables are different from each other, it may or may not work depending on the cable.
I have used both and I prefer the ps3 controller. I use the otg cable with both. If you root the N10 you can you use the ps3 controller via bluetooth with an app called six axis. You don't need an app if just using the otg cable.

Ps4 controller, jk. Obviously ps3, root your device and use sixaxis controller as more ppl says... all games work with it .
Hey I just got my stock nexus 7 and I tried wiring my Xbox 360 controller via the charging cord and a otg cable, but the controller keeps
Blinking I opened dead trigger and shadow gun but the controller didn't work. I got my Xbox 360 controller in 2009 would that be causing the problem? Thanks in advance
If your using a wireless 360 controller and the plug n play adapter your out of luck. The adapter only transmits power, not data.
Try it on your PC for games.. it won't work.

Is it possible to do this via Bluetooth. I can hook my tablet up to the tv, but since I won't have any usb ports open, I'd need a Bluetooth controller. Any ideas?

yeah every bluetooth controler should work. (maybe not ps3 or you need a program for that) but i have a ipega controler for my android phone works perfect with my windows tablet. for racing games.
Another question, do you have an mhl adapter to plug the tablet to the tv?
