I thought it used to work when I was using CM9, but now I'm on AOKP. Does anyone have it working?
It almost seems like it's trying to play the phone version, if that's the case then I'm thinking something got messed up with the build.prop.

Zero lag, the graphics are very smooth, but, as I already mentioned, the controls are quite bad.
There's no lag, but it took me about an hour to map all the gamepad controls since the touchscreen compatibility is literally ****ed up. Now that I can play with a gamepad it works flawlessly though.

Wait what? how do you play it with a gamepad controller? I was SO MAD about the touch controls as it would randomly shoot and I can't stop the waste of bullet's and especially that annoying moment where you can't aim at the bad guy's in the first scene after shooting the top corner's of the gate

In sixaxis controller I checked "enable gamepad, " then Shadowgun enables the gamepad menu and allows you to assign bindings from within the game. I bet plugging in a xbox controller would work as well. I'm not sure if keyboard emulation works anymore, but I don't see why not.

You would have to insmod the gamepad module...and then buy a usb adaptor for $20. Then you would need a compatible cable to connect the xbox controller to the tablet.
I just went to Walmart and dropped $60 on a Dual Shock 3 controller though...the Sixaxis Controller app is pretty awesome. (like it's really really really really awesome)
Epic, will try this, can you link a specific picture or sort of the USB adapter? I assume this is a female-female one?

Here's the official Samsung one, I don't know much more about them.
Holy crap?! This would totally save my day, How the **** did I not find something like that? I asked them for ALL their accessories that they had and I got dragged to the stupid cover cases.
Thank's for this, Now I know what it looks like.
I figured you had to use the original cable, then a female-female adapter, then the xbox controller on the other side. All in all a very long ass wire.

I think you mean nVidia GPU for the PC. nVidia doesn't make CPUs for x86 yet.
Interesting. I don't have a PC powerful enough anyway and I don't really have any interest in Skyrim but it's great that this is even possible. Makes me think that services like Onlive aren't far off taking over.

Yea exactly. Doesn't matter at all what CPU or GPU your computer or tablet is running. Splashtop works fine regardless.

The only reason they say it REQUIRES Nvidia is that they are releasing a THD (Tegra HD) app and it was an Nvidia presentation. So of course they are going to say that you need an Nvidia graphics card and an Nvidia based tablet, etc. Utter nonsense.

I've also been running Skyrim on my Touchpad via Splashtop and it works fine. As pointed out, it's basically the same thing those guys at the Nvidia booth were doing.
Question for the other people in the thread running Skyrim, what are you using for a controller? I am using my wireless 360 controller with the PC dongle extension hooked up to my PC's usb. It has a pretty good range around most of my apartment, but I don't really have something I can use to play it when I'm away from home.
Well, I have the HP bluetooth keyboard and a bluetooth mouse but I think that would be kind of clunky. Are there any good controllers that work well w/ CM7?
so splashtop works regardless? nice, im pretty sure that was one of those 10 cent apps i picked up during the sale. so what are the chances of connecting a ps3 or xbox controller to the touchpad so i could play at school or work or something?

Yep, it runs fine for me over wifi, though I haven't tried it over 3G/4G yet.
Supposedly, ICS has better support for gaming controllers so maybe with CM9 we'll have more options there. I seem to remember some people saying they've paired PS3 bluetooth controllers to their Android tablets running CM7 so I think it's doable but I've not tried yet.
I'm not sure if you can get a 360 controller working on it, I don't think the wireless one will because there's no drivers for it even if you get the dongle hooked up via an adapter. You might be able to get a wired one to work but then you'd have to use a Y adapter to pull in power for it.
I wish there was just an easy option for a standardized wireless gaming controller that worked well on Android without jumping through a bunch of hoops.
The Dualshock 3 and sixaxis PS3 controller works with some app from the market. Seen it in action and its pretty flawless.

You CAN use your PC mods with this, as Skyrim is actually running on your PC and streaming to your tablet. Also, this should be possible on a touchpad with Chainfire3D running on it. I am going to try it right now, in fact.

Personally, I have found Splashtop to be the best/fastest for any multimedia intensive remoting, and I have tried many. Were you connecting via the internet or local wifi ?
I think the point of that presentation is that its using tegra to recieve the compressed stream from an nvidia gpu. The regular splashtop app works exactly the same but in my experience the frame rates lag behind on the remote device to the point where i find the whole thing unplayable even on wifi at 720.
The controller is plugged in to the tablet, not the host pc.
The key word, optimization. If someone can get the stream that sharp with almost zero lag in a chainfired config on the touchpad, i would love to see it, cuz i haven't been able to achieve that myself

Alas, there is not, the only way to get a pad working is to have a stock rom, then connect a pad via usb, wiimotes and ps3 pads work very well indeed, but with sense roms the bluetooth stack isn't compatible with pads, due to sense and it's bluetooth limitations, HID USB i think it is, basically devices can't be used as peripherals, including pads.
I'm in the same boat m8, watching my mate on his Gal nexus whilst i'm slumming it on a touchscreen pad is just a kick in the teeth, i do believe no one has ever gotten a pad to work over bluetooth on any device using sense.
Get Gannii's stock ICS rom when they fix the bluetooth and your golden, the camera doesn't work yet tho either

Any other controllers out there that doesn't require root access?
Okay, The Note runs N64 games FLAWLESSLY.
From what I understand, fancy controllers like ps3 sixaxis and wiimote/nunchuk won't work with stock galaxy roms because of some low level bluetooth incompatibility. You'd have to wait until CM9 or similar comes out.
So, I'm looking for the best bluetooth gamepad to use with N64oid and BluezIME if required. BluezIME has official support for a few, such as Zeemote, PhoneJoy, and iControlPad. The only one out of those that has an analog stick is the Zeemote, and it only has 4 additional buttons.
For a good N64 controller, it needs an analog stick, 6 buttons (A,B,L,R,Z,START), and another analog stick or a D-pad for the C-buttons. Something like the ps3 controller would be perfect: 2 analog sticks, 2-4 trigger buttons, start button, and 2-4 regular buttons.
Is there one with the needed buttons that is compatible?

Much appreciated for the info. I think I just might be sold on the moga, if it's still in stock by the time I can order it.
I own a Moga controller, use it for my Nexus 7. Pretty awesome gadget to have for mobile gaming!
the moga pro (if same price) might be better. looks way more awesome and probably feels really nice. unless you're going for portability... either one should be good.
I bought a Moga from Wal-Mart so that I could return it if I didn't like it... and I returned it. It irritated me that they went with proprietary support instead of as a general bluetooth gamepad. Most of what I wanted to use it with wouldn't work, and honestly the games that did support it seemed laggy. I'd let go of the thumbsticks and things would still keep moving. It's a shame, cuz it's a really slick controller, and that built-in clip is also awesome, but in the end it just didn't work for me. I also didn't care for the lack of a d-pad (yes, the pro has one, but I like the smaller form factor), and the buttons felt shallow and clicky and required too much pressure to use for my tastes.
I also tried the Nyko Playpad, and while I felt it was a better controller by having a d-pad and two more L/R buttons which were analog, I never got to actually use it because the damn thing didn't work at all on my DNA no matter what mode I used. My phone would "connect" to it, but the gamepad would still keep blinking at me as if it hadn't connected, and it never worked even for a moment.
Note to HTC: if you want to sell phones, stop needlessly f***ing them up. I love my phone, but I hate what they and Verizon have done to it... it'll probably be the first and last HTC phone I ever own, and that's a real shame.

Aside from my last post, has anyone tried a bluetooth gamepad that actually works besides the Moga? I'm dying to get my emulation on with a gamepad, and without root and roms I can't use my previous go-to, my PS3 controller. Actually, has anyone tried a PS3 controller through USB? I'm really curious to know what people have tried and what works with gamepads and the DNA.

I have been enjoying using my PS3 controller on my phone for a while. Does the bluetooth stack have anything to do with firmware? If so it probably works for me because I'm running an AOSP ROM. I didn't try it on the stock ROM before I flashed a new one.

Picked up a pair of these controllers from GameStop earlier this week. Only tried pairing one, but it works great! It has 2 modes, in one of them it acts just like the remote without the voice part.
http://m.gamestop.com/Catalog/Product/104425
I bought one today and it works perfectly. Tip: ensure the controller remains in the NP's line of sight during pairing. The first time it couldn't pair and the second time it paired but no buttons (in game mode) worked because of this.

One thing worth noting...
The controller pairs as two separate devices. If you pair it in "keyboard" mode, you must re-pair it in "gamepad" mode.
Just picked up two of these today based on reviews in this thread and after a few tests I can confirm that these things are amazing.
I was previously trying to use my Ouya controllers to play games here and there, but these $12 controllers are 100x better and most games and emulators I've tried so far "just work". They're actually comfortable to hold, buttons are responsive with good travel and I can operate the NP menu with them without any bizarre button config.

I agree. They feel so much smoother than allot of other controllers I have used. The Gamestop associate helping me recommended it. Glad I listened to him! The only real negative I have about this controller is that I wished it used micro USB to charge instead of the mini USB.
I hope this post can help those on a budget looking for a great gaming controller. Trying to give back to an awesome community that has helped me avoid many potentially bricked devices.
Just ordered mine from gamestop, it better be as good as you all say it is... Or else!

Did you try to see if it works with 2 players simultaneous? I purchased a NykoPad Pro which works great and I want another to use for my MAME emulator. I read reviews (amazon) that users can pair a second controller but they can't seem to get the second Nyko Playpad to go into two player mode.
I hope the Red Samurai doesn't have his problem.
Finally arrived in the mail today and I LOVE the feel of it. Very comfortable to hold, maybe a little light, and aesthetically pleasing. Just need to figure out the easiest way to remap keys to work with emulators, and then I'll be golden!
Okay, trying to make this work with NostalgiaNES but they keys aren't mapped property, anyone have remapping recommendations?

yes at least for some games
I'm kinda in the same boat, should I get another one of these or something different for compatibility sake...?
I want to know what games you guys got working with the controller. I to bought one of these and it does work really nice. Getting another soon!

a lot of games work with this thing. in theory any game that supports bluetooth controllers.
if you install lollirok and amazon appstore the list grows a whole lot.
gta3 works really great btw. kind of funny that it shows as incompatible with android tv.
ive tried a few emulators and know forsure that you can use two of these controllers at the same time.
Going to start testing out humble bundle games!
I bought two of these controllers and they work great on Mame4Droid. I had to map the inputs for both controllers.
How do you remap the inputs?

I went into settings and managed the inputs for each player.
You may need a mouse or you cam use the controller to access the settings.
What is your roadblock?

Thanks for the response.
Where is the "Settings" menu for the controller?
Sorry - at work and not in front of my TV....

No worries, I'll explain as much as I can. Looks like you will need a mouse or 3rd party app to access the menu when your in the app. I use my DroidMote app. I couldn't access the settings with the physical remote or the remote app.
Once you go to settings, select input.
Select external controller
Select define keys and manage each player
