Playstation Mobile released today. New games every Wednesday
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918577

I have a Sony Tablet S1, just hooked up a PS3 controller and am loving this even more..I have been trying to find games to play with it (mostly FPS) but finding out that there isn't much of a choice..
Currently have the following working with the PS3 controller :
Dead Trigger
Shadow Gun
Beach Buggy Blitz
CS Portable
Max Payne
Drag Racing
and of course Crash Bandicoot
I wonder how hard would it be possible for developers to incorporate the ability to use a controller
Also I wish there was a way to connect my tablet to my HDTV (mirror mode)
Does anyone else have a list of controller enabled games?
Cheers

PLEASE do not kill me, but I can confrm that Wiimotes work. Dunno if Accesoires like a classic controller work though, not yet tested it.
I only have ps3 one and it seems highly integrated with the tablet now - nice status bar icon, easy way to disconnect, connect both wired and wireless way, navigates through the home menu, etc. I tried ps3 controller with onlive app and it works but directional buttons need long press for some reason, not a big problem as left analog stick seems to replace this functionality, also i believe a,b,x,y keys are swapped in places and do not correspond their physical location on ps3 controller. This was based on a couple of minutes play with lego batman and batman city

thanks..
any variations in controllers dual shack, sixaxis..sry i never used these so no idea wat should I buy
ONE MORE THING: I am more inclined towards Gametel as it can be used with Xperia Arc as well and its size quite small??
sent via awesome aRc (rooted 2.3.4)
If you haven't got PS3 and need to buy something I would not know which one is best. I paired the first original ps3 controller which is a bit lighter but doesn't have vibrations. Haven't yet tried the ones with vibrations and don't know if vibration itself is supported by any of the games so may as well save on the weight.
For onlive I suspect their universal controller would be better because of the labeling of button corresponding their setup plus extra recording etc buttons. You can recharge both controllers from the tablet I think, but onlive may accept regular batteries instead as well - at least their non unoversal does. Don't know how it pairs and navigates through home screens.
Double check if the other one you are considering pairs via Bluetooth for wireless option.

ohk, going to order ps3 then..
one more thing, do I need to buy the OTG USB Adapter from Sony? or anyone will work??
EDIT:
I just came out from Sony Store, i came to know that PS3 controller only works with PS games...I tried Real Football 11 n some other android games, none of them worked with PS3 controller.
Finally I am going for GAMETEL CONTROLLER.
sent via awesome aRc (rooted 2.3.4)
that is not true I have used my ps3 controller on none playstation games and it works great
I don't know about real Android games, but got my cable today, works with PS1 games, emulators and the system itself. Like PS3 taker said, highly integrated
edit:
And as everyone should know, games should be programmed to work with gamepads in general
can u try Real Football, bike stunts n some other good titles like Samurai Vengeance, Asphalt6, Tank Hero, etc..
sent via awesome aRc (rooted 2.3.4)
Asphalt 6 is a no go. You can control the menus, but not the car. Samurai 2 is a no go too, you can run around, but the buttons arent mapped at all. Likewise with duke nukem and unfortunatly, Onlive. More recent games like Shadow gun and sonic cd work like a dream though
thats y m more inclined towards GAMETEL controller as it has been developed keeping in mind abt Android games, u can see the list of games supported by Gametel.
sent via awesome aRc (rooted 2.3.4)
Is the problem that these games don't offer controller support, I could see no reference to controller support in the menus for Real Football. I know Grand Theft Auto 3 is a game that supports controllers and the PS3 one works great with that.

I downloaded a patched version of onlive app from the onlive helper thread in xperia play forum on the third page there approximately and it works with ps3 controller but maping is slightly off. Square is a, triangle is b, dpad seems to only move after continues pressing but left analogue seems to replace dpad moves perfecty. I played lego batman with no problem and warhammer for bit and found both totally playable. I hope some repatches it properly

????????????
its now available on eBay at an hefty price of S$150 !!! CLICK HERE
I'm pretty sure the controller has nothing to do with whether it is compatible or not, it's up to the game dev to add in the bluetooth controller features. But I don't know that from personal experience so I could be wrong . Some offer manual mappings as well for increased compatibility.
At the end of the day the general populous doesn't walk around with a bluetooth gamepad in their pocket, so unfortunatly it's something most devs don't support.

Emulators/Games?

So I was curious what are the best emulators for the TP?
I have dreams of playing NCAA12 (xbox360/ps3) on my Prime, but I know thats not realistic. But what about a PSP emulator? Or even an xbox/ps2 emulator?
I know about the PSX emulators, just curious if there is anything that can play some newer games...
Not yet...in due time..this still a brand new device with a brand new tegra3 5 core chip which has never been used before. Give it some time for developers n app makers to make the most of it. If you want games, check out the link in my signature
If you want to play some retro PC games (LucasArts etc) can recommend SCUMMVM. Works great.

onlive is the streaming game service right? i think I saw it on pulse before. Im not a fan of non-native apps
I was testing out a some N64 roms today via N64oid & tried Zelda Ocarina Of Time & Super Mario 64. Awesome no lag and smooth.
Also tried SNESoid which is the Super Nintendo version. Fun stuff. All this via a Xbox controller

Do you mean because its streaming?
Onlive by far has the best games playable on Android device. Has the best graphics also. Why? Because you playing actual PC, PS3, n xbox360 games on the prime. You feel just as if you playing those systems. I love it. I need to get a controller though. Touch screen games are limited.

Xbox 360 controller is plug-n-play.
Wireless PS3 SixAxis and DualShock controllers has drivers that require root and some savvy.
I would also use a Xbox360 Controller, its easy to use on Prime and also works on PC without much install problems like PS3.
Try use Splashtop for playing PC games, works very well with Skyrim.
I did not mean how to get a controller to work on the prime. When I tried Onlive I could move around the menu's but the games would not work with the controller.

Go into onlive settings and make sure it shows controller. Also make sure to enable controller in Asus prime settings. Same place where you choose what keyboard you want to use in settings.
nds4droid
has anyone tried the app it runs about as good as it does on my nook color
Nesoid/Nes.Emu
Snes9x EX
GBCoid
Gameboid (GBA)
N64oid/Mupen64Plus AE
FPse (PS1)
Gensoid (Megadrive/Genesis)
MAME4Droid (Arcade)
Sixaxis Controller
I've used all these and they work great. NullDC (Dreamcast) is being converted to work on Android too so look out for that too.
PS2 and Gamecube may not be too far behind but haven't seen much in this regard.
Anyway to make the keyboard a controller?
Then all i need is a mouse.

[REQ] Compatibility with DualShock 3? (Similar to Xperia)

Was wondering if we could have a port for this. I know there are other ways to sync with controllers but this seems to be the most simplest way to do it. Please see the link below.

Not exactly the same but something similar exists. But this would be awesome.
This seems to be very simplistic oh yeah! I wanna try it on my GN2 too! Port please

here is the same thread
thank you xda .. i bought a dualshock 3
i will try to keep this post as short as possible..
thank you team xda for your hard work and research.. seriously.. thank you very much guys..
because of you guys.. i safely rooted my note 2 (N7100)with philz touch recovery method(altho i am still on stock rom build N7100XXUFNL1)..
and after rooting my phone..
i realized the actual potential of a device like the (N7100) Galaxy note 2.
back to the point..
Sony dualshock 3 and the NOTE 2 is the most awesome combination(note 2 for its display size and specs and sony playstation for being sony playstation..lol )
i connected dualshock 3 with note 2 via standard usb cable(one i used with my old seagate hard drive).. of course also using the standard generic otg cable.
now.. games that natively detected the dualshock 3 controller(without installing any other apps for key mapping or touch mapping or any mobile gamepad apps for rooted devices etc.)...were as follows..
MODERN COMBAT 4 : ZERO HOUR,
MODERN COMBAT 5 (this game detected dualshock 3 as native gamepad in Xperia devices..mobiles and tablets.. and all keys were correctly mapped to its respective controller buttons)
apart from that..
if you have the sixaxis controller app from playstore..
i give you my word.. any game is configurable..and that too very easily..just take a screenshot of the game and load it into the sixaxis controller app..map the respective dualshock 3 keys on your touch screen.. and save profile.. thats it.
i played gangstar vegas and NOVA 3.. and the dualshock 3 worked flawlessly on both usb connection and wireless(all connection instructions are provided in sixaxis controller app help menu.. so cool.. )
in short.. the dualshock 3 + Galaxy note 2 (or similar awesome devices) + sixaxis controller app = almost any game in playstore and emulatore etc. ... playable..
the touch mapping is very easy and i dont know how but thank God the SELinux Enforcing did not interfere with sixaxis controller's access to UIinput.. it was like magic.. coz all other apps except sixaxis controller failed to access UIinput..
anyways .. moving on..
the dualshock 3 controller is original.. purchased from authorized sony center.. for 2990 bucks in INDIA......
and it is UNDOUBTEDLY the most awesome alternative to any other controller out there.. the original is well built.. sturdy.. AND IT HAS NO LAGS AT ALL..EVEN WIRELESSLY..
for this price and these possibilities .. all hail sony dualshock 3.. even without the gameKlip.. its still the smartest choice.. if ya feeel ma drift..!

Sorry for the delay, but it's well worth the money. The controls buttons are great and not obnoxiously clicky like the original "Moga Pocket" and the built in phone clip is sturdy. One review stated that it felt really top heavy with a phone attached, but I have no complaints
As advertised, it works flawlessly with GTA Vice City and NOVA 3, all of my other gaming has been with emulators though. Although it was a little tricky getting it set up with the emulators, once I got it figured out, it was great.
I haven't used it enough to rate the battery life, but it hasn't died yet at about 3 hours of gameplay and I would definitely recommend this as more and more games are being designed with Bluetooth controllers in mind.

Isn't there any lag at all when playing with emulators like fpse?
I haven't tried that one...the emulators I've been running are EPSXE, N64oid, and GBC A.D. The only lag I've run into so far is with Mario Kart 64 and for some reason it only seems to occur on the 3rd lap. I flashed a different kernel and it seemed to cut down on the amount of lag, but didn't eliminate it completely. Other than that, no issues.

I also understand that this is a Note II forum. I'm using a Galaxy Nexus so your Quad Core Tegra 3 may not see the same lag as my Dual Core OMAP.
I tried the original moga controller, and decided that I liked the ps3 controller with six axis app much better than moga.
Can't comment on the new moga controller.

Yes, PS3 controller is Bluetooth, and works great with Note 2. I'm a fan of playing old NES games with an emulator, but modern games with too.
Instructions:
1) Download the app "Sixaxis Controller" from Play store.
2) Open the app, click menu button on phone, select "Help", and follow those instructions.

PS3 controller works without root on games that support it (source)
Recommendation:
A) With Root: Get GameKlip and PS3 controller, no wire needed.
B) No Root: Get GameKlip package that comes with a super small micro USB to mini USB cable. Buy a PS3 controller.
Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with Sixaxis app or GameKlip, but I use both and like them.

By the way, do the analog sticks and L2 R2 triggers work with those emulators?
Left analog stick works but right analog stick and L2 and R2 do not. The way I have my controller configured I don't use those on emulators anyways so it doesn't bother me.

I confirm : FPse works like a charm with Moga Pro (mode A). :victory:
All buttons works without any configuration. R2, L2, right analog stick, ...
Truly great !
Moga mode for other emulators is not very useful.
With SuperGnes you have the perfect copy of the snes controller. No analog sticks !
But, with HID you can use analog sticks, R3 for the menu, ...
HID mode works great with :
SuperGnes
Mupen64 Plus
Mame4droid Reloaded
My boy!
RetroArch
Max Payne
ShadoGun
R2 & L2 are not recognized with SuperGnes / Mame4droid / My boy / RetroArch / Max Payne
With ShadoGun, you can not assign the Select key to an action.
All 12 buttons works with Mupen64 Plus.:good:
I am very happy with the Moga Pro.

So I am trying to use the Moga Pro Power I just bought with Retroarch and it seems like I can only get the directional buttons to work. I might just use specific emulators instead. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am trying to play NES games, Ive tried HID and A mode.

Dualshock Support - is it really THIS s##t??

Hi,
Just picked myself up a 16GB Tablet Z-£315 in the airport in Australia, thanks very much!!
Loving it so far, after returning a Nexus 10 with a dodgy screen.
One big reason for me to keep it stock and not unlock the bootloader and flash AOSP or CM10.1 is the built in dual shock support.
Well I've just purchased a Dualshock 3 controller and paired it up and I've got to say/ask, how crap is this?? I'm seriously disappointed, it seems like none of the games I have work with it:
Delver:can move with left analogue stick, can rotate left and right with UP and DOWN on the right stick, can't attack.
Minecraft: Doesn't work.
Pixel Dungeon: Doesn't work.
Bridge Constructor: Doesn't work.
Lode Runner: Doesn't work.
Etc...
Particularly disappointed with Minecraft-on Nexus 10 framerate was like crap-works perfectly on Tablet Z but the onscreen controls just kill my RSI riddled hands and forearms, this version of the game would be so f&&king sweet with a PS3 controller on this screen.
Is there any knack to getting the controller to work? Does the rooted Sixaxis app work better than the 'built in dualshock' support? Do any games at all work with PS3 controller?
Thanks.
I was a little disappointed that more games didn't work with the controller natively myself, these are the games that I've tested that do work though: GTA vice city, dead trigger, shadowgun, and snesoid for SNES emulation. If anyone else has been using the controller successfully feel free to share

Lode Runner: Doesn't work.
Etc...
Particularly disappointed with Minecraft-on Nexus 10 framerate was like crap-works perfectly on Tablet Z but the onscreen controls just kill my RSI riddled hands and forearms, this version of the game would be so f&&king sweet with a PS3 controller on this screen.
Is there any knack to getting the controller to work? Does the rooted Sixaxis app work better than the 'built in dualshock' support? Do any games at all work with PS3 controller?
Thanks.

Fairly comprehensive list.

I'm not sure the list is correct. For instance, I downloaded Temple Run (which is on that list) just for the sake of seeing if the controller worked with it, and it does not.

I've only used Shadowgun which was pretty good with a controller. If you look further down the list, he didn't link to Temple Run and also there was a Sony site linked that was a store of supported controller games.
I've purchased Another World and already own GTA 3, both work a treat with PS3 controller. Just a shame that Minecraft doesn't work!! Dammit
I think for now only game available on Playstation Mobile app (or Playnow) are compatible with DS3.
I don't know if the offer is still valable on Xperia Privilege app with 25euro gift, if yes use it to buy from PS Store.
Mega Blast work wirelessly.
edit : didn't see comment above before posting.
What OTG cable did you guys use? I bought a 4-pack from amazon and none of them worked

Works with my Nexus 7 for mass storage and worked with Tablet Z to pair dual shock 3 controller.
LOVE this feature.
I use it for SNES emulators. Just had to map the buttons once, and it works flawlessly.
More Play store apps need to support controllers though, definitely.

What SNES emulator do you prefer?
I use snesoid but that's just because its what I've always used. It gets the job done and have never had a reason to check out any other emulators.
Such a shame they switched the upper left row of buttons with the lower right one, GTA 3 is kind of hard to play in this way. I'm using an SGP321 on .253 though so maybe it's fixed in .307?
