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.

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.
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.
I wanted to post a quick note about game controllers for the Note.
Can't speak for everybody, but I have found in hard to find definitive information on what gamepads will or won't work with the Note. I had previously tried all different combinations. Xbox wired controllers. Wiimotes over bluetooth, and even 2 different Onlive controllers. In all cases the results were mixed.
So, I sort of gambled and bought a Wired Sony Sixaxis controller. It works perfectly! This is a Sony branded official Playstation controller.
For the record, its a wired version, I connected to the Note with an USB OTB adapter. It connects from the mini USB port with a female USB end.
I was able to use the controller for several Android Market games, including Grand Theft Auto, and Shadowgun. Also, I connected to Onlive and was able to use the controller without issue.
I have not tried any emulators (not my thing) and I found at least one game that "should" work does not. That's PES 2012. In fairness, I may not have the right version. In theory, anything Xperia Play Optimized on the Market should work.
The best part was that I got the controller for $30 at my local gamestop.
Hope this helps someone.
Don't know if this works with wired controllers but has some nice extra features for wireless sixaxis controllers.
- Keyboard emulation. Map all buttons and sticks to almost any key available in Android.
- Mouse emulation. Configure a button to activate the mouse pointer on devices that support mice (most tablets, and many phones should work).
- Touch emulation allows you to map buttons and analog sticks to the screen. Play all your favourite games with full analog support, even those without built-in controller support!

Have seen this but haven't tried it, looks like it adds the same features as the sixaxis app.

How did you get SixAxis and the PS3 controller to work on Shadowgun?
I have the app, PS3 controller and connect wirelessly via Bluetooth. The controller paired just fine with my AT&T Note. I fired up Grand Theft Auto and the controller works just fine with no additional setup.
For Shadowgun, though, nothing works.
Has anybody had any luck or even tried to get these three things working on this.
Ps4 remote play
Pc streaming using limelight
Kodi (xbmc) as media center
I have both ps4 remote play and limelight to stream my pc games from my pc working on my nexus 10 tablet and I connect that to my tv using the hdmi out. But since it is a tablet I don't wanna leave it hooked up to a tv. Would rather have a micro console of some sorts to do that. Plus I wanna plug in an external hard drive and play movies and tv shows off it and onto my tv. So I figured the mojo may work well.
Also has anybody successfully paired more than one moga controller to the mojo?
Thoughts? suggestions?
Thanks

I don't know about other stuff, but I have a moga pocket which paired correctly with Mojo.
Kodi works great!
No passthrough audio but everything else works well for me
I have a MOGA pocket bluetooth controller somewhere , but it's nowhere near as nice as the nvidia shield controller. I have sideloaded a couple apps that want to use a moga controller , and while I'm sure I could attach a moga controller to the Shield Android TV, it seems ridiculous to have to do that when a superior controller exists as standard. Some games (I own the Need for speed game) only allow touch, motion, or moga.. and it would not allow me to use the shield controller. Anyone got any ideas? there are apps that make the moga work on games not made for it, but I've yet to find a way for the shield controller to pretend to be a MOGA
This would be very useful for what i need it for too, i want to play NOVA 3 and it has moga support and sort of recognises the shiled controller as moga wierdly, but again the issue with the right analog stick being a mouse and not being able to map the buttons. So the app to make shield tv think shield controller is MOGA would work for a lot of games we otherwise would not be able to play. very useful
is there anywhere I should request such a thing be made? I mean, I can't donate toward it right now... but I'd be interested in proving there is interest for such a feature or app made available to shield devices.
Yeah I think it has to do with the Shield being Wi-Fi direct instead of Bluetooth. Im pretty sure someone could hack it via root.
