Emulators I use:
PSX: FPse
N64: N64oid
NES: NESoid
SNES: SNesoid
Genesis: Gensoid
MAME: Tiger Arcade
No emulator junkie would be happy without the use of an actual controller so I use Sixaxis Controller with all of the above.

Couldn't agree more, L2. I have several of those and they are awesome. Still got to get on that SixAxis though (tried to buy one the other day but it was wireless 2.4GHz, not bluetooth), wii-mote still not functioning with these emulators.

Have you tried Wii Controller IME? I used to use that and it worked for me, but I find using a sixaxis controller to be all around better. Of course you can use Wii Controller IME with the classic controller if connected to the wii mote, but that's just more clutter.

On other devices, I preferred SNES9X EX because it was free and open-source (same developer released it for iOS on Cydia, and webOS). It was pulled from the Market but can still be downloaded here:
http://www.explusalpha.com/home/snes9x-ex/downloads
Not sure how it works on the X2, as I don't have any games with me.

thx for the links but for some reason i cannot get that six axis controller to work ,,, do you have a guide

I'm pretty sure they never got six axis working on the x2 there is a thread here somewhere you can read up on

Ive got NESoid GENsoid and N64oid. Plenty of games too. I was playing some on my friend's TV the other day and they were jealous how smooth my tweaked out X2 played the games compared to theirs. I know 1 of them has a rooted Thunderbolt, idk bout the other one.

I want gamecube to be the next =p

Ive tried Tiger Arcade but it just crashed on me. hmm, Maybe it was just the rom. But the rom worked on my ps3 so I dont know. Maybe I'll try it again.

metal slug
i would love to play metal slug on my phone that be hot.....

I finally got a game to work on Tiger Arcade. But it doesnt fill the whole screen. Is that just how it is on the Droid X2?

Emulators?

What are some emulators you guys are using for your Atrix, for what games, what systems, etc. I'm going to start trying a ton but thought I'd fire up a conversation here on which emulators people prefer (if any for that matter) lol.
I use oid emus like gameboid (although they're not in the market anymore, I installed it with an apk) but it works great and can overclock... the Nintendo DS ones I use always seem to lag but works ok. By the way these are for Pokemon and Zelda games. They don't eat up too much power either, at least in my opinion. About 20%/hour of constant use.

I've used Gameboid, psx4droid, and Snes9x ex, All with a Sixaxis(ps3) controller, and its extremely good if you like to play games in an emulator. All of those work pretty good, with out lag, too!
i cannt for the life of me get psx for droid to work any suggestions or pointers

Gameboid is the best GBA emulator in my opinion. You cannot get it from the market anymore. But do a Google search and you can install it from an .Apk.

I'm using Gensoid, Snesoid, Gameboid and FPSE (psx4droid won't run Legend of Mana..........)
GameBoid, N64oid, Nesoid, Snesoid
I use the bluetooth Wiimote app and it works great.
Wiimote classic for N64 and Snes
and for gameboy and nes i use just the wii mote rotated.

[APP] N64oid v.2.4.1

I can't believe that is working so fine. I recorded a gameplay to show you how this looks.
Try to get it, I assure you is not going to disappoint you
Where can i get it?

Sorry, misread your question. I wouldn't say gbcoid is optimized for tablet screens as the virtual controller button placement could be a hindrance at times. Aside from that [very] minor occasional inconvenience, it's very playable. Especially because you can change the Scaling of the screen to fit your preference.
*If you have a bluetooth controller, I imagine it would be 100% perfect.

Hey can you tell me the steps to get FPse working? i got the app and i installed the bios file. is there any like a specific place to save the bios file?
as for roms. do u have to do any steps? or just download from the site as a .bin file and copied it onto ur tablet? i copied the .bin file onto my tablet but FPse can't find it.
FPse. Since the last update added dual core optimization ... well everything just works, in fact it works TOO fast - I had to frame limit all my games and I had turned on all the tweaks. Tekken III runs beautifully. Additionally the sixaxis bluetooth controller works great with it.

Best Game Emulators?

Just wondering what emulators you guys recommend ? Used to use Nesoid for my DX and my wii controller and loved it. Would prefer to use an Xbox controller but not sure if that's possible. Thanks.

Hey just saw your post and thought I'd mention the one I've been using because I use them pretty often. I was a big nesoid fan until I recently found NES EMU on the Market. I can't think of the guys name off hand but he also has one for Sega, neo geo, colleco, and some others I'm forgetting. Anyway they are extremely well made and compatible with Bluetooth controllers so I definitely recommend them. I'm not sure about using an Xbox controller, but I know you can use a ps3 controller with the app called Sixaxis Controller by Dancing Pixel Studios. I set up touch profiles for MC3, Shadowgun, and Gta 3, and it's almost like having a portable console! I played through and beat MC3 with my ps3 controller and the controls are almost flawless. I'd also recommend fpse for PlayStation games and n64oid for Nintendo 64 games.
Awesome man thanks, can you load and save games?

Hey sorry it took so long but yes you can save and load games. You can even set it to auto-save and you can access it all with a ps3 controller if you're using one. I'm impressed with the overall setup on all of his emulators. Hope it works out for ya man cause they are definitely my new favorites. I've also been messing around with the touch profiles in the Sixaxis Controller app, and if you have a ps3 controller hooked up you have to try Modern Combat 3 with it. I think it's a great game and nothing beats playing it with a ps3 controller because it's just like playing on a console! Let me know if ya need help setting up the touch profiles cause I can send ya the one I made. I've got all of the controls set up just like it's a ps3 first person shooter!

I think the former Apps like ROM Gripper (or was it ROM Grabber?) have gone away due to copyright and legal reasons. You can search for Emulator ROMs pretty easily though, I found one with one search.

You can use a wiimote with most emulators using the wiimote app. I'm not sure how far they've come with the wiimote app though because I haven't used it for games in awhile. I have a windshield mount for my phone in my car so it's basically my car stereo, and I actually prefer using the wiimote as a remote because it's a lot easier to use when your driving. Other than that though I just use my dualshock 3 as my controller for my games because it works great most games and emulators.

From what I've read it has to be a sixaxis or a dualshock 3 but I'm not 100% sure. I've never tried anything other than my dualshock 3 so I don't know if an aftermarket one will work or not. I hit up craigslist and found an official one for pretty cheap.

You need to get the app called Sixaxis Controller by Dancing Pixel Studios on the Market first. Then you have to follow their instructions to pair the controller to the touchpad. It's pretty easy and you only have to do it once, but you need the Sixaxis Pairing Tool for your pc. Plug the controller into your pc with it's usb cable and then run the pairing tool on your pc. On your Touchpad the Sixaxis Controller app will show you the Bluetooth address of your Touchpad at the bottom. Enter that address into the pairing tool on your pc so the controller knows what bluetooth address to pair with. Then hit start in the Sixaxis Controller app and it will connect to your ps3 controller and the light on the controller should change to number 1. From then on anytime you want to connect it to your Touchpad press the ps button on your controller then just open Sixaxis and hit start and it'll connect. If you want to use it with your ps3 again you just need to plug it in with the usb cable to the ps3 and it will re-sync to it. Hope this helps

You have to make sure you're connected to wifi whenever you start the game. If you are and it still does that I'd say remove the downloaded data then reinstall it and see if it works

You can see retroarch playing ps1 games on a note 2 flawlessly. So obviously the issue is on your end.
I find that retroarch lacks in configuration where a normal standalone emulator exceeds, they make for better compatibility with games and performance tweaks. The downside is that standalones are about $4 each.

Can you elaborate on this? Retroarch is getting in game menus, built in wii remote support, and more cores. What do the paid emus who run worse and have frameskip on do better?
The wii remote is garbage for any system post Genesis. You need more buttons. I'm using sixaxis and dualshock3 controller. Like said before though, the configuration in retro is a little weak compared to all the oids with button mapping at least

You can plug in a plethora of different controllers into the wii remote, giving you a ton of options. You can see here with the official Neo Geo arcade stick plugged into the wii remote.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=pdsFgv3EGLk
Retroarch has native Sixaxis controls. Configure the pad with the sixaxis app and set it to gamepad mode, and retroarch fully maps it out for you by default.
The configuration for the button mapping is identical to the oids and other emus, you can manually go in and set each button on the controller with whatever you are using. Can you again tell me what else you think the paid emus do better so i can tell the devs directly? Feedback is important, so i'd like to know what else to suggest. So far you've just mentioned stuff retroarch already does out of the box.
