[Q] PS2 Emulator Yet? It's been over 10 Years! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was just wondering, are there any PS2 emulators out there on Android yet? I've been looking around some forums which say that it'd be extremely slow if there was one and that's why there isn't one but they're quite old and mobile specs have come a long way since then.
I'd be surprised if there isn't one by now: The Nintendo DS and PSP were both released in 2004 and we have emulators which are both stable and fast and the PS2 was released in 2000. In addition, we have PCXS2 (a PS2 Emulator for Windows, Mac and Linux) which is open source so it shouldn't be too hard to port, right?
Anyways, is there any PS2 emulator available yet on Android? I just wanted to create a thread to check if there was one in development or if there was anything I couldn't find. Thanks!

Haven't seen a ps2 but I've come across a dreamcast one. Reicast.

Anyone saying that it isn't possible due to hardware constraints or the fact it would be slow are ignorant or repeating what they hear from ignorant people. Look around and think for yourself. Most games are already emulate'able at full speed never mind the upcoming phones.
For comparisons sake, on my old iphone 5 (non S) I can run the psp emulator (psp is essentially the same machine as the ps2. Some would argue more powerful) not only at full speed, but at full speed with triple the resolution, upscaled textures, anti aliasing, and more.
Yes it's possible, it has been for awhile. Unfortunately their is nothing available yet. Once a dev with the capability is freed up and has the motive to do so, a port of something like pcsx2 is more likely than a brand new emu all together.
Here's to hoping eh?

I can safely say that's a fake....
There's no such thing as PS2 emulator for Android just yet... I hope in the near future this will be possible, just like PPSSPP....
The reason why PS2 emulator isn't available for now it's because how complicated PS2 hardware was...

emulators for windows mobile 6.5

So i got this phone T5388i WINDOWS MOBILE 6.5 DUAL SIM WIFI GPS PHONE 8GB!! i cant post links sry. i got it from ebay
and was wondering what emulators can i put in it. i have no clue what these phones are capable of but with a cpu wth ~800 mhz ( i asked for better cpu ) i should be able to run some. what do you suggest?
If your phone is the Diamond2 then I believe that your phone supports 624MHz (not 800MHz^>^) but should support emulators like SNES, Sega, GBA and PSX (FPSeCe).
A friend of mine got the older model of this phone and it has ~800 Mhz cpu. I asked the seller to ship me the same older model. What type of files does windows mobile 6.5 support? is there a list somewhere? and yes, it is the diamond2.
Hi silvershot,
I have used this T52881i, use SNES and Sega on it. It’s working properly on my device. So, you can also run these emulators on your device.

Should be able to find a good few on http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ the problem I have with emulators is the controls (since I have a resistive screen - single touch).
If you really feeling adventurous try out DOSBox...then you have even more options.
Worked a treat when I had a bluetooth keyboard working though (unfortunately not working on my non-stock ROM).

For those who use emulators and have wii remotes

There is hope for our phones now. I was asking about this months ago and I found out that the wiimote controller app wouldnt work with some phones and our phone was in its list... Emulators would run too slow for me since we'd have to keep touching the screen so I gave up on all of them.
But I recently found out that the app does support phones with CM roms on them. It is now working for me using mik's CM7 even if our phone was on its incompatibility list.
I'm sorry if this is old news but I just wanted to share the joy reliving the GBA and GBC games of yore

will snes emulator ever come out on 1st gen of google tv?

Hi like alot of people I was not sure where to post this.
My question has to do with google tv (logitech revue in my case)
Just ordered it and while im waiting doing my research on what it can and cant do.
I'm looking to run a snes emulator on it, now before I go on I must inform you im a clueless n00b, I hear there is no snes emulator that will work on google tv, my clueless understanding is as it has intel chip set(google tv 1st gen)? They mention at CES that the 2nd gen of google tv will have ARM hardware? Does that mean it will run snes emulator thats works on android now?
I do hope its possable to port snes to the revue I have a usb snes adaptor ready
bump!
Sorry I waited months b4 bumping!
Was kinda hoping someone would have made a google tv snes app by now, as google now has a (market place) I mean "play shop"
Is it super hard to code one or is it no one else cares?

ePSXe or FPse?

Which?
Particularly, which allows you to use sixaxis for ps3 controller, and which also allows you to hide the on screen controller buttons when doing so? Thanks!

From what I can remember, FPse can.
I am almost positive FPSE can but it has been a while since I used it. Never used ePSXe though myself

Hi guys. Is there a way to set up multiple keys to function when I hit one (hw) button in epsxe? for example if I set the directions to "w a s d" it would be really helpful when I hit "e" and it moves up and right. I know fpse can do it, but it started crashing with latest updates, and I find this alternative app since. Would be great,please if you know how to do it,pm me
edit: never mind, Id been blind, I found it!
many people here vote for FPSE, on ePSXe it also works... PS3 Controller and hide touch buttons..

Ive always been in a debate between the two. is one run better? does one support more games?

It would be hard to tell (honnestly, even if I manage Fpse official forum ^^).
In my opinion, it depends on what you're expecting from the emulator:
Fpse=> more options (for video, audio, controlers), more things you can tweak to get your perfect "graphic/speed balance" for each game, in the whole better graphic....and more updates (which can be seen as a bad or a good point, depending on how geek you are but a proof that the devs tries to fix every single bug )
Epsxe=> Easy to set up, no waste of time, straight to the point: if a game is said to work so it does indeed. But less tweaking possibilities, less good graphic on high end devices. Working great on low/medium end devices
If you want to play quickly, prefer instant-game over trying settings, Epsxe
If you want a lot of options and perfect crispy graphics, even if it requires trying a few settings , Fpse
Schtruck, Fpse's dev., is my friend, and I've been following this project since late 2008 on Windows Mobile then Android, so of course I vote for Fpse
Go with ePSXe bud

ePSXe is going to be the best psx emulator on the Android market hands down, it supports blue tooth controllers and I'm positive it can run the PS3 controller as well since its blue tooth and I have a Red Samurai blue tooth controller I use to play all my games well most!

Fpse has been supporting bluetooth too for a very long time (actually FpseCE for Windows Mobile was already supporting bluetooth controllers like the MSI BGP100 in early 2009 ).
BTW, Opengl 2.0 plugin for Fpse is on the way (there are already 3 different rendering possibilities: software, OpenGL ES blitting and OpenGL 1.1 plugin). As far as graphics are concerned, Fpse has always had (and so will keep having) an advantage over epsxe
Does anyone know if FPse or ePSXe have native ps3 controller support? (I have a transformer infinity and I would like to just use the USB port on the dock and play games.)
A year as passed.... ePSXe has grown.
What do you think?

Just try the pirated versions. Then help the developer by buying ePSXe or FPse. This way you are helping yourself and the developer
If you think my idea is totally stupid, Just buy epsxe. Because it's the modern emulator

[Request] Nvidia Shield Tablet with Windows 8.1

As the title suggests, from the specs the device is given. This should be possible. Since the tablet is just now coming out, there are few forums for it. Even the Nvidia forums don't have a section for it, let alone XDA's forum. Which is why this is under modding.
The Nvidia Shield Tablet meets the Windows 8.1 requirements and uses intel chipsets. It's not a matter of if as much as when. Which is my request to the devs. Make the tablet either dual boot windows 8.1 and android or a full install of windows 8.1
Best of luck to you all.

At 2:39, you get the kernal build number that comes in the stock tablet. I know very little about kernals so I leave that to your discretion.
If anyone has any comments or relevant information to help developers with pushing a windows build into the tablet please feel free speak.
Are there any forums on xda for the Shield Tablet? Its running android, and its most likely rootable.

Yes i just got mine and rooted it with towelroot. works great, got xposed framwork up and running.
Wait wait wait. The Shield Tablet has Intel chipsets? So I can run Desktop mode and say install Steam and play lower end games if this became feasible? I'm almost positive already that Nvidia said that the Tegra K1 has DirectX capabilities, I would LOVE to play games like Halo PC and other lower end titles on this tablet! Especially if someone made drivers that recognized the Shield Controller as an XInput device!
Which is why I started this thread. To see what the devs have to say about this. If there is any chance XDA devs can do this, it will almost certainly change the scope of gaming at home and on the go.
On a side note, there are already videos of the tegra K1 running the dolphin emulator. While previous K1 devices could only run games to a certain extent, over at the Dolphin forums the devs there are already discussing full speed emulation with almost all Gamecube games and some Wii games. For Dolphin it comes down to CPU strength since both consoles only run on 1 core. While the tablet is quad core, the software can't connect to the other 2 cores due to information process paths which leaves 1 core(They managed 2 cores as an option, not sure how) The Dolphin emu needs to atleast 2 times that to run gamecube(485mhz) games and 4 times for the Wii(800 mhz). The Nvidia Tablet is a 2ghz. Which just isn't strong enough to run wii games. So getting Windows ported over is important for overclocking the cpu efficiently to a level Wii games can handle, and pc games a bonus.
Nope, nope, nope.
Hey, guys. I just randomly ran across this thread, and I wanted to let you know that the reason why nobody has ported Windows 8 to the nVidia shield tablet is that it uses an ARM processor. Yes, this processor is made by Intel, but it is an Intel MOBILE processor, not a full x86 architecture processor.
So, although it may take some reading for you to understand the basic incompatibilities here, I will tell you that running Windows 8 on this thing is not possible in any universe. The only Windows OS which will run on an ARM processor is Windows RT. But everyone hates Windows RT, and not a single Windows RT device has been made since 2013.
However, on a happier note, Android 5.0 Lollipop does add support for x86 and 64bit processors. So, a future in which we have dual booting Windows 8 / Android tablets is not unfeasible.
