Can I use my gamepad for unsupported games? - Hardware Hacking General

I just got the Moga gamepad and I was wondering if there's a way to play games like Dead Space or Fifa 12 on it even if they don't support gamepad functionality.

On our xperia plays we use gamekeyboard for unsupported games and I'd imagine the Moga should work with it too. You have to be rooted though. Hope that helps

games on HTC Incredible

I really want an HTC Incredible, but without a physical keyboard, I am concerned I won't be able to play games that require a game-pad type controller. For anyone playing games running emulators on the Incredible, how is this working out?

they sell bluetooth controllers if thats your main concern... I gave up on emulators on phones a long time ago... the apps that you can download are nice if I want to play games like that I'll just use my DS or PSP and save my phone battery
You can use a Wii Remote! At least, I know they're working on it.
But that's something else to carry with you. Might as well get a DS with a flash cart or something.
But yeah, using emulators on this device is pretty worthless for anything other than turn based RPGs.
uising multitouch like iphone

Onlive

Downloaded onlive today and so far its just alright. the lag and graphics need to be fixed, i'm on 25mbs wireless n and it lags. I have also got my sixaxis controller working via Bluetooth and everything works except right trigger in dirts 3 and split second.
oh sweet it does pick up controllers, yeah the lag is gonna fixed or people might have overloaded the service today. totoally worth it for the free game
Not available in Japan yet.
well it doesnt need to be ...
does the ps3 controller only work for certain games?
how about with lego batman since that is free
Well, I got it to work, and it seems ok, but I would like a higher resolution. Does it work with xbox360 controller or PS3?
I works with xbox 360 controler. For me there is no lags, but graphics looks bad. Waiting for updates - maybe they will do it better

is your 360 controller wired?
As for the resolution, I have noticed this since I have been using onlive for sometime. On my computer monitor it doesn't look that pretty, but when played on my htpc to my big screen looks amazing only time will tell they most likely will be fixing this soon.
On a side note I am having a wet dream were valve buys them
Im loving it. Installed last night and got up this morning with legobatman in my games! No lag here and i have crap broadband, with bt, Loads of games that i love for only a couple of quid! Game on ppl
P.S. xbox controller working for me, now i can play assassins creed revelations at work, llluuusssshhhhhh!
I dont have a 360 controller but i have read about somewhere and for sure it works.
The xbox 360 wired controller works great with onlive, but I have only played lego batman.

I have the PC wireless xbox 360 controller, but maybe I need to get the joystick app to get it working properly.
@san pedro
it uses a bluetooth adapter right? if so, it does work but I think you do need the app feom market

I can use it with emulators, but in shadowgun I just spin. The driver program is probably worth a shot, if not maybe I'll just get a PS3 controller.

[Q]Should i get a MOJO?

I'm thinking about buying either an Ouya or a Mojo as an emulator machine but i have a few questions about the MOJO.
To make it simple.... I love the Ouya and it would be perfect for me, i only wish it was a little more powerful... (for more fps on PSP games and San Andreas in high quality etc...)
So can i expect the Ouya on MOJO to run like a real Ouya and even more? Or is it only partially working?
Is there any way to hide the navigation bar when running an app or will there be soon? (maybe a Ouya app update or something?)
What would you guys suggest?
I'm really torn between those 2, some advice would be greatly appreciated!

no not all ouya games are in mojo shop towerfall is not in the ouya everywhere shop
well i guess as long as all the emulators on Ouya work.... shouldn't be a problem sideloading any other app

Emulators and media is about all its use full for so ur in luck me man, however I have had massive issues regarding storage space which might restrict how many ROMs u could use. Tbh ur better off getting a reliable tablet and a TV out cable
well a good tablet is expensive and ressources are wasted on battery saving etc....
i'm probably going to get a MOJO, but only if i can get rid of the navigation bar while running an app...

I think there's apps that removes it after rooting it.. it doesn't bother me so I haven't checked.
Re ouya everywhere, people where saying the frame work crashes, it might have been fixed, I don't like ouya so haven't checked.
well ouya has got some really cool stuff for emulators, like the Nostalgia app regrouping all your emulators etc... and it's nice to change from the stock android, but the specs are really ****ty... anyway, i found some ways to hide the navigation bar and stumbled upon your website where you shared your thoughts about the MOJO while google-ing and it pretty much convinced me to buy one... the ouya won't last long with specs so low
MOJO or Fire TV
Should I buy a Mad Catz MOJO or Fire TV? I'm a android enthusiast and I own an OUYA. The Mad Catz MOJO would be a perfect device for me having all that power inside. Tegra 4 with 2GB of ram sounds impressive for a Micro Console not to mention the nice controller. Now I've noticed the Fire TV is able to install the Play Store which basically solves the problem of not having to buy all of my apps again. Fire TV from what I've seen is pretty powerful, but you don't get all that Tegra goodness. $99 plus controller vs. $199 with controller. We need more Mad Catz MOJO videos on Youtube because there are some more games I want to see running.
well you can install google play store on the MOJO and it's only 150$ now, plus you can install the Ouya App so you get the best of both worlds!
@Energizing, yeah the ouya 16GB compared to the MOJO is a no brainer IMO.
The Amazon fireTV compared to MOJO, could ague either way..
The biggest draw back on the mojo is not having kitkat, which means we're stuck on late 2013 game releases instead of having the newer games like shield1 has.

Been playing a bit of oldschool OpenArena (ouya apk version), I got GTA 3, just ran out of ideas, I'll do a video or two!

Fire Tv - Ultimate PlayStation 1 System (PS1)

Playstation 1 Games play smoothly on the Fire TV using Emulators for Android, because of the faster processor and 2 GB Ram it feel like a PS1 on steroids.
I used Amazon Controller and it was working nicely, you could even connect a PS3 controller, to get the ultimate Playstation experience.
Here is the video how to, Peace:
http://youtu.be/cgayRcYw2vY
I've been using epsxe emulator for playing old PS1 games. I've only tested 3 so far due to space limitations on the AFTV. Final Doom didn't work at all just black screen. Kula World works but has graphical glitches and Tomb Raider Last Revalation works perfectly. The sooner Amazon enable USB to be used for external storage the better as I've only room for one PSX game at a time due to low memory and my AFTV is less than a week old.
Yes me too I would love to see the fire Tv with the USB Storage enabled or even a new model that's offer 64 gigs of stores, because it's can't replace many physical Devices. And I have a feeling that the next fire TV Will be fantastic.
Do you have to have root to do this?

No, no root required. Just sideload the epsxe apk (or Fpse apk). You'll also need a PS1 bios and game rom files for whichever game you want to play. And a controller.
Curious if you have this working with ROM Collection Browser and if so what emulator you are using?
Haven't used this with rcb yet only using standalone emulator but mame and SNES 9x both work with rcb. Had never used it before until tonight so took a while to learn to configure. Will try epsxe with it tomorrow.

Set one of my aftv with a sideloaded free version of epsxe and the game Medievil last night. All went well except that I had to map all the buttons on the Fire tv game controller. Game play was very responsive and extremely good quality picture.
Is there any way to have games on my network storage and access/play from there?
I don't think that would be possible. Think the psx rom images would be way too big to do this over a home network. Hopefully I'm wrong as I keep all my different game roms on a drive together and would love to be able to access and play from this via a network share.

Fire Tv - Ultimate Nintendo 64 System (N64)

Nintendo 64 Games play fluidly on the Fire TV with no lag or arteffect if you are hard-core Nintendo fan in general you will be amazed with the experience that's emulator offers.
I think my next step is to use the Wii mote wirelessly to get full Nintendo experience :fingers-crossed:

Just one question, got it all to work, but how did you get the on screen cursor? I really wanna go to the profiles tab and can't seem to get there with the controller/remote ...
I'm glad that it is working, for my understanding you are trying to use your Amazon controller or a remotes to move the cursor ( for me I was using my wireless Microsoft 800 keyboard and mouse but you can use any keyboard or mouse ) I think it's a very good question the possible to use Amazon controller to control the mouse cursor. I have to do some research to see how it can be accomplished.
multiplayer?

Can you play multiplayer? What all controllers have you tested?

I play N64 often on my gen 2 fire stick. Some lag on heavy games like golden eye, but haven't found any to be unplayable yet. I use a wired xbox 360 controller for player 1 and 2. that's all I had laying around so couldn't test 3 and 4
yeah , I can inally play some old n64 games again. goot times........
u can play a lot more like SNES. I played through Earthbound with the Amazon remote.
