Anyone know if it is possible to use the Nintendo wii remote with the HD2 as a bluetooth gamepad for emulators?
I've managed to get it to sync up to the PC in the past and I'm pretty sure people use them successfully with the Dolphin emulator. Of course I'm not looking for full motion control wii sports or anything similar. I'd just like to play NES games on my phone with a proper controller.
This is the only purpose made bluetooth controller I've found, but I think I'd rather just have a Wiimote in the glove compartment http://computers.beboxx.com/coen/msi-bgp100-gamepad.html
What do you guys think?

If you are interested in alternatives to the MSI or Chainpus BGP100 bluetooth gamepad, google search "modded by bacteria" go to the "work in progress" section of his forums, and search for the thread "Re-housed Bluetooth controller". The creator of the site, Bacteria, will be transplanting the innards of the BGP100 into an SNES controller. Previously, he has transplanted it into a PS1 controller. It seams feasible to DIY into almost any controller housing.

Definitely a great idea. Just needs somebody to write the driver hookups.
Has anyone had any success getting a PS3 sixaxis controller to work with their A500?

Using their testing tool it says it is connected/paired, but the controller doesnt connect. when selecting "scan for devices" from the bluetooth menu the controller never shows up.
I've paid for the main app... works beautifully on my Iconia! Been playing on N64Soid all afternoon... Must use their PC software to reflag the Bluetooth address first. Instructions are on Dancing Pixel's website.
If only I could keymap the actual Dpad to be recognised seperately... poss a fault with the *soid software.
Try it again... it's splendid stuff!!
alright, ill try again when i get home.
glad to hear it does work tho! cant wait to play emu games!
what source do you use for ROMs??
On the stock rom, unrooted, I plugged in my ps3 controller via USB and it worked perfectly no custom software required. I was playin an n64 emulator with the ps3 controller and even had the output going to my TV by HDMI out.
Hello, i was wondering, my ps3 controller does work on my xplay with the sixaxis controller app, so anyone knows if i buy a joystick arcade for ps3 wireless, will it work with the same app ? I would love to play tiger arcade with a stick
Any suggestions? Lots of past systems, lots of old fun games, but emulators are always a bit iffy.
Which work and which don't? Any special settings?
Thank You
FPSE (PSone emulator) works well, even can be used with USB gamepad, i'm now playing good ol' Resident Evil Nemesis
Thanks. I'll check it out.
I've been trying N64 roms and can't get the analog stick recognized. I've tried a PS3 controller and an older Logitech both on USB.
Any ideas?
I play good ol' NES emulators on my a500. There are 2 of them that I use and seem to work well:
NESDROID - available in the market and it costs money. It works well with the touchscreen but doesn't seem to work too well with game pads.
NESOID - almost sounds the same, but this bad boy isn't in the market. I use it when I connect my Wiimote to my tablet to play my NES games. SUPER MARIO BROS!
M.O.J.O. is advertised as having "MULTIPLAYER SUPPORT – Connect two or more gamepads for multiplayer games". Has anyone ever tried this feature succesfully? Is there really any android games out there that support offline multiplayer on the same device?

Thanks for the info, gwaldo. It never cross my mind.
Which emus did you use successfully with your 2nd Ctrlr? And how do you set it up? Did you plug the dongle into the USB 2.0 port?

I mostly use the N64 (Mupen64), PS1, PSP, snes, Sega mega drive, I forget their names just google and try them out..
But emulators on android have great controller mapping, so it doesn't matter what 2nd controller you have, you can map it (configure the buttons/sticks) and play it , the N64 support 4 players!
IE as explained here:
http://www.howtogeek.com/141052/how...hysical-controller-on-your-android-phone/all/
I'm hoping gameloft can do controller mapping one day!!
The mojo controller needs the USB dongle (yes I keep it on USB2 unless I have need to use a HDD), the retail controller is BT2 so it doesn't need it, but I prefer the mojo ctrlr because the middle button activates the background apps, where as the retail controller doesn't.
I just found out that we can play Badland in coop and multiplayer mode with 2nd controller. I use Ipega PG-9025 as my 2nd controller and connect with bluetooth. Hope that more android games will support this.
