First off, I'd like to thank Splashtop developers for being awesome and listening to potential splashtop customers. I recently sent them an email asking for Shield controller support (I Do not have Nvidia Graphics in my computer). Here's how the chat went down.
Me, Aug 13 20:13 (PDT):
Hello Splash top developers! I own an nVidia Shield and was wondering when
you will add support for its controller. Not everyone has an nVidia GPU so
we cannot utilize the streaming feature. Using game keyboard is too much of
a hassle, having to root it and all. I hope you understand. Me and many
other shield users would pay good money to see added shield controller
support so we can stream our games with our non nVidia PC. We would also
pay extra for the anywhere internet feature so we can play games from our
PC on the go. Thank you for taking the time to read this email.
Sincerely, nVidia Shield Users
Splashtop Personal, Aug 14 07:17 (PDT):
Hi,
Thanks for your great feedback!
We really appreciate suggestions like this from you, our valued customers, for our Splashtop Remote products. The user experience is always our first priority when improving our products. We will keep on collecting this kind of suggestion to make Splashtop Remote products even better.
We will forward your findings to our Product team and Development team to follow up on feasibility studies and issue-solving. Sometimes, when researching a suggested new feature or option for implementation, they will ask us to go back and contact the original suggesting user (you) for some type of specific details. So, if you don’t mind, we may be contacting you again for more information.
In addition, if you have any more ideas for new or enhanced functions in the future, we welcome you to add an Article to our Forum ( REDACTED(Due to my post count) ). This often begins a discussion which includes feedback from both Splashtop staff, and from other users who would like to see your idea implemented.
We really appreciate you generously taking your time to share your ideas, and thanks for using this Support service.
Regards,
Splashtop Support Team
So what does this mean? You might soon be able to stream your PC and Mac games without needing a NVIDIA GPU!
You CAN do this right now but it will void you warrant and be very innacurate for the controls. You can map the controls via gamekeyboard, which will need root, which will need an unlocked boot loader. So, if Splashtop adds shield support, we would no longer need root. Also, splashtop offers a "Anywhere Streaming" feature which would allow us to truly play pc games "On- The - Go", Having wifi everywhere and tethering available from most carriers and phones. So, you should be able to play Assasin's creed 3, on the bus!
So we've got 2014 now and it isn't working...
At the moment I don't have a gaming PC so I don't mind waiting. Man I hope they add Ubuntu support.

I am looking for people to test a game I have been creating for my Masters in Software Engineering.
The game involves catching, training and racing virtual creatures. In order to catch and train creatures, the user must physically go to where the creatures are in the real world. This is done using GPS.
The requirements for the game are a Windows Mobile 5 or later mobile device, and internal or external GPS, configured using the Windows Mobile intermediate driver.
I would really appreciate any feedback that people can provide. Usage of the game in other parts of the world will also allow me to further test my software.
At present the game is functionally complete but relatively untested.
If you are interested please visit the following website where you can sign up and download the software for free with no obligations.

Please ignore the certificate warning - as it is a student project I have not got the certificate authorized.
Many thanks,
Matt Sharpe
Sounds interesting
It should not be problem to cheat... But nice idea anyway
I agree, it is very easy to cheat.
But then, the point of the project is not to make a complete uncheatable game else I would probably have spent too much time trying to secure against cheating and not enough time implementing all the game's features!

I want to try this game but the link is broken. Can you post the working link.

It's a homeip link, so it will only be available when he is online.
Hi guys, it is with great pleasure that I extend to all XDA community the invitation to become part of a new project by Capas-Project called Capas Game OUYA and how you envision it comes to creating games and apps for the new Ouya console, serves (and therefore we are looking) a group of programmers who are already familiar with the SDK OUYA. For other info you can reply to this topic or contact me via PM or send an email to [email protected]
Hello Capas,
Congrats for your initiative
Can you give us a list of planned games ? ^^
For my part i would love a WORMS - LieroX - party games (such as Crash Bandicoot,...)

The idea and the type of game can be decided by the developer itself; pleads not there a request for a specific type of game you can decide both the type and the like articulate it (and most of the times it will be so unless me which are the CEO or a hypothetical delegated to project is an idea for a game could also be that you may be required to make that kind of game), if you want to be part of Capas game for Ouya send me a PM and maybe we'll talk better
Thanks, it work for me.

I do not understand, you want to be part of the project?
Hello Developers,
The reason I am calling for some Developers is because I am creating a solution
(for both personal and Commercial) for Android Cloud VM's using AOSP.
Some of you might be thinking, well why would someone need that? why not just use a physical device? or even just host your own VM?
Well here is what I am doing with this project:
1. Anroid Cloud VM's can come in handy with products not open to I-devices.
Using an Android VM on say an iPod Touch or iPhone would spare the trouble of hacking or even buying a second device.
2. Maybe you cannot afford such a device because you just spent all your money on an iphone or blackberry and need access to an android device.
3. on a personal/business Smart phone, you can install this cloud device and use it for its oppiste use. (E.G on a business phone, use the VM to run personal apps, like email, web browsing, and other personal related stuff.)
The list goes on but you get the idea.
What I need to start off this project is:
-an iPhone/ iOS developer
-An android Developer (I only know Visual Basic so It is hard for me to learn a new language.)
-Some beta testers for when the team plans to release said software.
-Might need a C# or another VB.net or even a PC Java developer
In return for developers I can give per person (Sorry no teams as far as specific development.)
Following:
Depending on sales of the application(s) and other related items I can offer:
- 5% <--> 10% of sales Untaxed per developer. (depends on how many sales and how many developers.)
-Might be able to, depending on sales, donate devices.(Dev's Choice.)
-Unlimited access to said Cloud VM's. (I think that's a given yeah?)
I already have the plan laid out. I just need the resources.
If you seem interested and are willing to take the risk with me, PM with contact information (I am comfortable with IRC, Texting, or Phone calls.)
If you do not want to give away such information but still want to inquire about this project, Google Voice a free nubmer and send that number to me so I may contact you.
NOTE: Mods, I put this post here in hopes of finding a dev quickly, If I have in anyway posted to the wrong part of the forum, please move and contact me so I know.
Thank you.

Having some experience in large operations like this. I offer this input.
First. You are taking on a huge project. You will need some sort of financial backing to provide the back end server hardware for all of this. Second. Licensing. Third. I cannot see something like this being completed easily or in the near future with one dev per section. You will definitely need teams. Your biggest of which will be setting up the remote system. Plan of action should either be cutting down on the need for so many Devs to make it more beneficial to the dev. Shoot me a pm if you would like more info or help.
Not saying its not possible. definitely a lot to consider tho

Well, I have the hardware, AOSP is opensource and seeing as I am not selling android to consumers, but instead offering a service of which they can access said Software, which to my understanding is under GPL. But I could be wrong, on any note, I will PM you because it seems you a knowlegdable on this kind of topic.
Hi
If you have a PS4 it's possible to use the Remote Play app of PS4 to play to your ps4 using your phone (more info ).
The bad thing is that it's only possible to play with touch controls or with a dualshock 4 doing a workaround thing that is a rudimentary and also limit that feature to being at home
Till date nobody in the world made the dualshock 4 working within the remote play app via Bluetooth connected to the phone.
There is one thread on xda about it but not devs involved so I thought maybe all the PS4 users with a Note 2 like me are even willing to pay some devs if the port that perfectly.
Who join the bounty? I'm willing to pay upto $10 to have it working
If you join or you have a suggestion post below how much you would pay or the suggestions to improve the bounty.
If not, please don't psot so we keep the thread clean
If more people join the bounty I'm sure some goods dev will try to do it
Bounty DS4 on PS4 Remote Play via bluetooth
My People $10
Not one single person interested?
What if this thread was to announce that it's working already? I'm sure many people would be posting....
We can't have always things for free.

Hi, I'm Steve, I do some roms over on the s6/note5/treble forums. I recently purchased this board after noticing it was a big step up from raspberry pi. After buying the board I went looking for retro gaming options. Lakka exists. RetroPie is in development, done by custom developers. It is not an official RetroPie release or affiliated with the Official RetroPie on Raspberry Pi. However it works and looks the same. It is just an unofficial port. Currently it is working for many emulators. But Dreamcast, psp need work, and I wanted Saturn. I found the two guys developing the project and reached out to them(crash), and ultimately joined the team for ROTT(retropie on the tinkerboard). Links can be found in post #2. Please report any bugs as it will help us improve the project. Happy Gaming, or viewing, depending on what you do.
Current release is ROTT 1.1 Epic Edition.
** Fixed DC, PSP, and added Saturn.
The image repo/tutorial page is www.techtoytinker.com
There are no sales and no ads, just the info

Just flash it to your SD card and go.
ROTT v1.0.6b BETA:
https://mega.nz/#F!bohSRKpD!DLwuW4CIS4HOWCNNH0wvSQ
I was able to get Sega Saturn to run really well with some tweaking. It will be included in a upcoming build. Dreamcast is also fine. N64 and ps1 are good. Psp is doing better now. The GPU has been set to it's Max of 600, finally unlocking the advantage this board has on the pi for gaming.
ROTT is up to 1.0.8 now. The deluxe version has mame and mess included.

Please note, there are no ads or sales on the site, slash TV has been added also for tinkerboard, and nano pi fire 3. It's an Android based emulation setup that doubles as a media centre.

Don't use that. Use 1.0.8 epic or 1.0.7, and it's tinker/tinkerboard
Question
Thanks for the awesome img! I have a question, is it possible to integrate some Media players in this image? for watch movies under RetroPie?

Hi Steve, I'm Roger and this message/reply hass nothing to do with the tinkerboard (sorry everyone, for thread-jacking). It is actually with reference to the Jetson Nano. This is the first post that google found on xda, after i included "xda techtoyti....." in my search terms.
I'm messaging just to say "Hi" because I sent you a message using the "contact me" feature on your website but I check XDA on a far more regular basis, than I check my hotmail account.
I am still awaiting the postman to deliver my nano 4gb. It is 1pm here in the UK and the parcel tracking says that it is out for delivery, with the driver
please feel free to PM me

Yeah I know. Have downloaded it already and looking forward to testing it out
I'm hopeful of an Android port too, which was my reason for reaching out through your website.
I've already flashed my sd card with Nvidia's os and I've downloaded the Android ROM for the switch.
Still waiting for the postman though
Again, sorry for thread-jacking. Can I pm you instead?
2nd edit. Postman just arrived! Yay.
