So when I got my Ouya first thing i Installed was Astro File Manager (which isnt very Gamepad friendly). With Astro I installed, Dead Trigger THD, Sonic Ep.2 THD, Riptide GP THD, Amazon app store, GBA.Emu, and File Manger HD. None of the THD Games work. I got them from my Asus Transformer Prime. The THD apks worked on my Prime but not on my OUYA (most wont even start up, Riptide freezes at title). The Amazon app store and GBA.emu work great, but File Manager wont even start up either.
I mentioning this apps/games because others on XDA/Ouya Forums seem to have them working.
What versions are you using and did you install them differently??
Please let me know. Thanks
Also are any Gameloft games working on the Ouya?

For emulation Retro Arch: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.retroarch&hl=en
As for THD or Gameloft games I doubt any of those will be working anytime soon with out any heavy modification

Actually they're dozen of posts/threads where people have most THD (Tegra HD) games working. Ouya being a tegra 3 device should allow the ones that have controller mapping abilities and that aren't connect to the play store work.
I'm just asking if those people can share what versions of the game apk their using.
Thx
I can't seem to get any of the emulators to work with teh ouya controller. Granted I haven't edited anything in the emulators themselves, but would like to think they come pre-configured for the ouya controller since I downloaded them from the Ouya store.
N64 emulator works with the ouya controller pad, but the SNES and NES ones dont do anything. Any idea why?
You need to map your buttons in the emulator settings menus. I was playing super Mario world last night with hiccup after I did that.

Which SNES and NES emu's were you using? All the ones I've tried automatically detect the ouya controller and work with no configuration. I've only used the Robert Broglia, which I recommend his emu's over any others.

Robert Broglia? Did you sideload that Emu? I dont recall seeing that in the Ouya Store.
I have had occasional issues with the controller connecting as controller 2 even when its the only controller on the machine. Some games and programs don't seem to work properly with only the second controller connected.

Sorry i was typing quickly earlier, Robert Broglia is the name of the dev who put out a lot of the EMU"s on the OUYA. He's responsible for all of the .emu emulators (i.e. nes.emu, 2600.emu, etc.) and the Snes9x EX+ emulator.
I read on this board that Tincore Keymapper is supposed to work on the Ouya. I haven't tried it but plan on it later today.
Hi mojousers,
I just wanted to let you know about this page, where you can find android games that work with a gamepad controller:
http://androidgamepadgames.com/
Have fun!
I tried out mupen64 and it was pretty good, bit buggy. PPSSPP was alright. Retroarch crashes for me with Lolirock. Just wondering what you guys use to play games on it.
Been using paid version of Mupen with an original XBOX controller.. worked beautifully
Quickly tested Retroarch and worked fine for SNES games, hopefully it will be updated so it shows up on the main screen
Using stock rooted 5.1.1 Android TV on Nexus Player
snes9x and mupan, both work well. I am hopeful that someone writes a nice EMU interface for AndroidTV, that rivals my friends RetroPI.
For the Shield, I'm using FPse for Android, which has been great to be honest. I love the fact that it also looks for the game images too. Even able to use multiplayer with Crash Team Racing and two controllers.
Np
Hi, I use fpse for ps1 games, works very good. Md.emu as has the best controller setup I can find for multiplayer use and speccy. All in the game store official now
Has anyone been able to install dolphin emulator yet?
I cant i think Its because Its developed for arm64 and our device is x64?
Ps i tried Some apks without success from here: https://buildbot.dolphin-emu.org/builders/release-android
M.A.M.E.
Anyone have any luck running mame emulator on nexus player? I havent had Much luck. When I use Mame4droid most of the roms will load with a black screen but i can hear the audio. This one works on most of my other android devices.
thanks..........
The .emu emulators by Robert Broglia are the best ones available for older systems like the NES, GBC and GBA along with SNES9X EX+. For the Sony PlayStation and PSP, I recommend ePSXe and PPSSPP.
What about Sega Genesis/CD/32X stuff?
MD.emu, which is also developed by Robert Broglia, emulates the Sega consoles quite well.
Dreamcast emulator " reicast " works now on x86 systems and of course on Nexus Player. Nexus Player gamepad was recognized. You must use the debug build of this app, not the outdated Play Store app.

This should be an explanation why dolphin (wii and gamecube) doesnt work on our device yet
Ps what version of ppsspp Do you guys use? I can launch it but when i start a game it doesnt work. (and what games Do work?)
Hi there how did you get this to work,been trying for days with no luck.what emulator and files did you use and where you downloaded it from,thanks
Hey guys, I have robert's emulators on my nexus player , but I'm getting bad scrolling, more so on the nes and snes, not so bad on the sega side of things. The sound hick-ups randomly on the nes emulator, is anyone else having this? I didn't have this problem with the ouya which is less powered? Just wondering is it a Marsh mellow problem etc?

What emulators have you tried?
So I've tried Retroarch, ePSXe, and a few free emulators on GAPPS. They all seem to have the same problem. Either the joysticks won't work at all, or when they do, the right joystick can only be used at an angle in some games. This is especially frustrating if you're trying to play a game like Ape Escape where the right analog is used to attack or use the net. Any good solutions, or good emulators that let you properly map the joysticks the way you can with say the Dolphin emulator?
Have you tried different Joycons? I have tried a few emulators myself for psx games and retroarch had the best joystick settings. I can play ape escape fine when i tweak some of the joystick settings
