i posted in the main forums Q&A then later realized that i should probably post it here since it relates to the galaxy tab....
does anyone know if you buy the usb adapter, if you can plug in a usb game controller and have it work with emulators? i want to get a decent gamepad for playing games...if anyone can help shed some light on this...
thanks in advance!
depends on the controller. You would need the custom rom for ps3 and xbox but the wii works fine. most PC gamepads work fine too with adapter.

I use a logitech dual action usb controller on a completely stock galaxy 10.1 and it works perfectly.

Wiimote + Wii Classic Controller works great.
SNES9x EX supports it natively. 90% of my tab usage time has been A Link to the Past.
So I just got my USB adapter, and it's awesome to be able to use my keyboard, wireless mouse and portable storage with my tablet.
Just wondering what other peripherals you guys have used with your Tablet S.
I use a wired gamepad, or bluetooth sync a PS3 controller with it to play games like Grand Theft Auto III and Crash Bandicoot.
Unfortunately the Playstaion Suite is such a fail in execution to offering the full PSOne backlog, or recognizing games I purchased on my PS3 already. :/
Im want to buy a bluetooth keyboard and a ps3 controller, do many games/apps support the ps3 controller?

Yep, there's a thread listing the games that (don't) work. There's a specific post that breaks many games down too.

Hi,
I want to connect a ps3 controller using the cable to my international rooted s3 but have a question.
How does the phone recognize the ps3 controller with the otg cable? Does the cable come with some drivers to be installed or do I just plug it in and attach ps3 controller and it simply works?
As far as I know, no drivers are needed. Just plug your sixaxis and il will work (you'll have to map the keys into the game anyway).
You shoud also consider using "Sixaxis Controller" to use it via BT.

Is there a difference between a SixAxis Controller vs a wireless ps3 controller? Sorry I dont own a ps 3
I never tried to use a wireless ps3 controller other than the sixaxis.
Many wireless controllers needs a dongle to connect to the PS3. You should ensure that the one you have use bluetooth without any dongle.
In the case you need a dongle, you'll have to connect it with a usb otg cable (you won't need any drivers as I said).
I can't guarantee the "sixaxis controller" app will work with a different one.
Interesting thread,i actually own a ps3 and a gs3 (^^) and never believed i can use my sixaxis via Bluetooth on my galaxy, which games are supported?
Inviato dal mio Samsung Galaxy S III con Tapatalk!
Virtually every game can be played with sixaxis. Some support are native (you'll have to map the keys anyway) like mame, etc.
For games wich can be played "only" with the touchscreen, you'll have to use a special mapping on sixaxis controller.
You'll find some profiles in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1800342
For information, GTA III is also supported. I'll have to work on Onlive profiles soon.
Hope that helps.
I picked up a ps3 controller from a second hand store for ten pounds bargain i thought.
Games wise link above is great i havent come across many games that dont work appart from a select gameloft titles

Will a dualshock 3 ps 3 controller work with no problems? I'm not able to find the original sixaxis ps3 controller locally. But the guy at EB games said that Dualshock 3 has sixaxis built in but with rumble...any thoughts?

cool thanks, i'll pick up the dualshock 3 controller then
I got a question and i hope someone can help me with it
Yesterday i got my Snakebyte iDroid:con controller and i wonderd if i can use it with sixaxis. I tried it but i can't get it to work on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
If it works do i have to connect it the same way as a Ps3 controller (through usb) or does it work out of the box (because the controller is made for Android). If i have to do it the ps3 way then i have to buy an usb adapter for my Tab because it doesn't have a normal usb entrance. That's the reason i bought a Android bluetooth controller because i can't connect a ps3 controller with out an adapter.
Hopefully someone can help me with this. Thank in advance

Hi,
I have Logitech Chillstream gamepad and wanted to know if there any way to use it on my SG3 over the OTG cable.
Thanks for your help.
