Has anyone managed to get any of these working on shield, because the game selection is what I would hope GFN looks like someday. I.e Naruto Ninja storm 4, and COD series and a lot extra. Https://youtu.be/0PlKcc9La8I and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.liquidsky

I don't think that's an alternative to GeForce Now. Looks more like you get a remote PC and can play whatever you install on it, but you've got to buy them yourself. So its an alternative instead to NVidia's new renting a 1080/1060 PC service instead.
Any game streaming service has to be better than anything nvidia has their hands in. I hope liquid sky puts gfn out of business!
I just want to play call of duty

Hello,
I want to buy the Toshoba Folio (in these days the price is going a little bit down) as a gift for my wife.
I have one doubt. My wife likes to play a lot with Facebook games, like Farmville, Frontierville and so on.
Is the Folio powerfull enough to use for that ?
Reading the specs for me is ok, but any comment will be very appreciate, if someone has a direct experience.
Thank you
boscam
I don't play this facebook games as I think they don't worth it. Still I guess for some people and manly casual gamers this could be a nice to have feature on a tablet. They could even be used at work, as they run from everywhere and at anytime.
As they are web based they should run with a normal web browser and you could get a handfull of browsers in Google Market. I don't know if they use flash or even java but both are available for Folio ( Flash support is still beta though). I had played some flash kids games and it worked fine.
I hope that someone that use to play in facebook could help you and give you details on it.
Nope, Farmville doesn't work on FolioMod 1.3d. I tried with Dolphin Mini browser, which seems to run most of flash website, except the Farmville game. Probably I need to update the flash player, because I'm still using the default flash player preloaded in FolioMod 1.3d

I tried some games: mafia wars works ok, kingdoms of kamelot also, but....no way to play farmville. You can accept gifts but not work with the farm screen.

For now...
No Farmville
No Restaurant City
Yes Treasure Isle
I think things will be better when official flash will be available for Tegra 2
We have the official update from Toshiba now, does it work now?

Sadly Splinter Cell has been removed by Gameloft in fact almost all android Gameloft games from that era have been removed. There has been no update to the titles to even work on modern devices, like the powerful Nexus 7 and it's second incarnation (my favorite tablet BTW it has the brightest screen and most DPI and best colors over any any hand held device. Full 1080p). But a side gem idk if your a id software fan but Darkplaces (a modern Quake engine that been being built for years now) has been ported to android and iOS. Darkplaces allows Quake games to be played with normal mapping and full dynamic lighting. You can even load alot of mods (smoke, fog, rain, particle flame efx) you might have lying around straight into the engine. The author has also ported Doom 3 which looks very nice on the Nexus 7 2013 ed. And FYI in case you didn't know with the Nexus 7 (both versions) you can grab a OTG cable for 5 dollars on amazon and play your games with a Xbox controller, and the Nexus 7 2013 ed you can plug it into your HD TV and use it as a monitor. Makes me want to throw my Xbox out in the street. Darkplaces and Doom 3 can found on the Google market place. No Splinter Cell has had me bummed for a few years now. But hopefully this will provide some pretty entertainment in its place.

Alternatively there is "Onlive" for android let's you play new high end games on any android device. I use it on my old 2010 phone. Its like stream but instead of downloading game files it simply streams the audio and video to your device. I can't remember if Splinter Cell Conviction is still one of its playable games but it was at one time. You can download it for free and even watch other players live around the world playing titles like Batman or Darksiders. Keep in mind you have to pay for subscription but feel free to see if they have titles you like play demos to check to see if your internet can handle the data. Cause you need a good solid net connection if your looking for Xbox or PlayStation quality graphics. Hope these post help ya out.
My brother-in-law wants to get a Tab 2 7" for my sister but he needs to know if it will play Zynga games. She is real big into Farmville, Mafia Wars and other Facebook games. If it will play those games then he can get the Tab, if not he won't bother spending the money on it. Hopefully someone here can let me know if it will play those games. And it has to play them as a stock machine. They are not into rooting, custom ROMs or anything of that sort.
Thanks

Tab supports flash.flash
games also works good.but can always go to nearest showroom and check them out i.e working or not.
Sheild TV arrived today from Amazon USA, to me here in the UK and I activated my $30 credit via a vpn.
I bought it mainly to run emulators on but is there anything really worth buying in the play store or should I save the credit for the upcoming stuff.
I was leaning towards Doom 3 BFE as I missed out on that on the PC somehow, but it has mixed reviews on the play store?
Any suggestions or other recommendations? I tend to prefer action games over puzzle or strategy games if that helps. Do the Shield games go on sale like the other play store stuff, I can't seem to find a good play store price tracker?

I bought my Shield via Amazon a couple of months ago. Never figured out how to get the Google Play credit. Did you get a redemption email or something because I don't think I did?
PS: I also live in the UK.
In US there is a Google Play Store sale. Not sure about UK but picked up NBA jam for 60 cents. I used my credit for small purchases. Droidmote, robert bruglia's sega emulator, gamesome frontend donation. I can't see spending it all on only halflife & doom

Yes just talk to Amazon on life chat. They will give you the key. You have to redeam that on the Nvidia website and they email you the actual Google play redemption key. Change your play settings to a us store and fictitious us address and then redeeam the key. If you Google there are numerous guide on how to do it. But pm me if you get stuck
I got the movie "Home" because my nieces stayed the night the day it came in.
A few emulators that were Shield friendly.
Doom 3 because I remembered it being pretty fun.
Just to say thanks to @baileyjr who I PMd and helped me too get the 30 USD credit
Now I too have a predicament of what to spend it on. For anyone who has spare PS3 (or PS4) controllers lying around, I'd highly recommend the paid app Sixaxis Controller: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller (requires root).
Other paid games which I enjoy are:
~ $7: Wind-Up Knight 2 (Platform) (IAP Unlock)
£0.79: Goat Simulator (Comedy)
£5.00: GTA: San Andreas
£1.59: Riptide GP2
$10 Each: Portal and the Half Life 2 Episodes (Puzzle)
I know you said you don't like puzzle games baileyjr, but for anyone else Half-Life 2 is one of the best and does have plenty of action too. It's graphics seem to have been slightly upgraded since its PC release in 2004 and it has about the best graphics of any Shield TV game I've played so far.
As for emulators, before I try any paid emulators I'm going to have a crack at the open source, multiplatform Retroarch which just received a major update.

Last night I picked up Doom 3 and for some bizarre reason it didn't deduct any funds out of my credit, so I then picked up Half Life 2 as well, I will have a look at HL2 episode 2 as well :good:
Emulators I can highly recommend and are free are:
PPSSPP https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ppsspp.ppsspp&hl=en
Reicast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reicast.emulator&hl=en_GB
Mupen 64 alpha 21 http://www.paulscode.com/forum/index.php?topic=1818.0
The alpha of Mupen 64 is not availiable in the play store and is far better and easier to set up than the retroarch version.
Also Dolphin is worth a look, but its not running at full speed yet apart for few odd games.
I'm really glad you got it all sorted out. And remember Amazon should refund your import charges deposit if it came through without inuring any. Hit them up on a live chat if you dont get them back.
Out of curiosity what are you guys from uk using for the us plug ? just a travel adapter ? that's what i'm using but would like a proper uk power lead
Yes just a travel adaptor
I'm also using a US power adapter. I'm really hoping they sell the UK brick separately after the Shield's UK release as I don't want to be stuck with a US adapter forever.
Anyone know of any good n64, snes, gamecube, or nes emulators? Nothing has been working well for me
Most of the apps that I've purchased have been emulators or apps that somehow compliment the emulators.
What I've bought so far:
Drastic: DS emulator that works great for DS games that don't require touch input.
PPSSPP Gold: Amazing PSP emulator.
ePSXe: PS1 emulator
FolderSync: Lets you sync local folders with remote folders (using services such as Dropbox). I use this to sync my game saves to Dropbox so that I can have my game saves synced across all of my devices.
Tasker: I use Tasker to trigger FolderSync to sync all of my folder pairs when my device receives a certain text (so that I can trigger a folder sync when I don't have access to the device) .
My Game Collection: Lets you keep track of and organize your video game library.
There are a few more apps that I've bought but they aren't related to emulation/gaming.
I'm trying to find a use for my OUYA since I haven't turned it on in ages. Outside of an emulator box what other things do people use their OUYA for?
lets kick this zombie... I would be very excited if libreElec was ported to the ouya. I would def use it for a one trick kodi pony if.
Other options would be the Lakka platform - if ported - could provide a great retro gaming platform?
Can Anyone dump ravensword for this console please desperate for it
IM thinking of formatting it and just using it for KODI. I miss this thing, I really liked it and think people crapped on it for no reason. OUYA comes out and people complain about garbage indie games on their tv and it stupid..... switch comes out and everyone loves garbage indie games on their tv...... so dumb
Well, I can't say I'm disappointed that Razer tried to make it work, even merging with Forge TV project, just to be a failure. But I believe now is a good time to look for cfw to get that small paperweight back to life!
