Search didn't come up with this as a specific topic...
many of our HTC devices have a keyboard.. I'm wondering which games allow use of the keyboard at all (even if its just using arrows vs D-pad), and/or if any games truly take advantage of having a keyboard (ie. can you remap keys in mega-MAME the way you can in desktop versions?)
Edit: presumably this means running in landscape mode (at least for most devices with full kbds)
Thanks,
Mike
recall some fps games maybe it was doom or doom2 which had an onboard keyboard under the fps window
at least some of the emulators too
c64 i recall
I think all games that let you config the keys used to play. Like i use call of duty on my wizard and it works great but i would recommend that you open the keyboard first and then start the game because some games have problems when you open it during play.
How does games react on this phone? Like spb games and astraware?
Can anybody tell me how the phone coupes with games?!?!

anyone knows how games play on this format OF 320X320.
because most game or 240x320, so I was wondering how games manage this format.
I got realVGA and I780 Cursor (if I need the cursor keys for a game). If you already have I780kbfix installed, you will need to shut it down before activating I780Cursor. You can find realVGA here in the forums and I780Cursor possibly too.Then you set RealVGA to the highest resolution (96 Dpi, I think) and reboot. If you need cursor keys, for a game, you activate I780Cursor. I recommend you to assign it to some key you don't really need and then always press that key to use 2, 4, 6 and 8 for moving and 5 for "enter". As I mentioned earlier, you have to quit I780kbfix first or you will get a "key hook error" (because both programs want access to the keyboard and only one at a time can have). If you are done with playing, you can press the key assigned to I780Cursor again to write normally again. Btw, I have to add that I didn't play many games on my I780, but the ones I tried worked perfectly.
spb games work perfectly since the company (asking money for them) just makes it accesible for any windows mobile phone on the market. i got spb online and braintester with all kinds of games and they work perfectly. the games adapt to your screensize so i advice their games .
but you can just try games like tangled buggs and so. they work good to.
for real gaming experience mario, rayman, etc. I would like to advice a screen with 230x240 (or higher).

I have tried PocketCultMame
http://www.pocketcult.com/home.php
But it is so buggy that it isnt an option for the raphael.
Also tried Pocket Nester for NES.
Nester seems to start the ROMs ok but the key mappings just dont work right.
Anyone got these anything or else to work well?
Curious
I would also like to know if the keyboard works with Pocket Nester. Anyone know?

seems to be a general problem
i have tried all the emulators with virtually no luck at all. Seems none of the keys every work for me
same problem here, it seems that HTC used a different technology to number the keys.
maybe because the touch pro has more buttons than most other devices.
Had same problem with games that use mapping (like worms for ppc, doom 1 & 2, etc), as well as with the DOS emulator.
It's a key mapping problem... when is someone going to create a program to use the capacitive part of the TP as buttons (so we can play and emulate stuff?) :^P
For the moment im playing with the device upsidedown, im using the Up, down, left, right as the D-Pad and strg + shift as A and B button.. not a very practical but it works.. i hope there will be a better solution for this problem..
Play full playstation games
I use FPSEce 0.9.6 beta and it works with red alert retaliation. The intro video is laggy but once you skip that and get into the game menu, its smooth.
You just rip your psx games to .iso format and copy to the SD card.

i did all the above Downloaded a bios file etc etc but somehow i was unable to find the iso file wich was locate don my memory card.
And when i found no program it went automaticly to the "memory card / disc" Menu all playstations have .. all fine but i was unable to get OUT this menu and had to reset the device in order to get it back up ...
Any thoughts? maybe doing something wrong

Any Updates?
Has there been any progress on this? I really want the Sprint Touch Pro! But if I can't map the keyboard for use with emulators, that would be a deal breaker.
Have you tried FinalBurn?
You can get it from:
http://www.modaco.com/content/smartphone-software-games/247894/finalburn-for-wince-0-014/
FinalBurn emulates CPS1, CPS2 and CPS3 games (including Street Fighter Alpha 3).
However there are several problems:
1. Low FPS during match (other games like XMENVSSTREETFIGHTER are better)
2. Jerky UNPLAYABLE performance with Sound ON.
3. Keyboard can't be mapped
4. Controls mapping issue
The degree to which FPS is impacted is dependant on the game.
This is my experience with the HTC Touch Pro.
I think we need a more optimised FinalBurn version.
Another problem is that the processor has to process 4 times more info for the VGA screen so it will probably work better in QVGA devices.
Unfortunately I've not found a way to adjust in game resolution.
This MAME emulator certainly has potential! Try it!
Here is a great solution for the keyboards issues:

i googled around for awhile and found a really great and supposedly rare emulator for nes its hard to find in english since its a jap build of nester only problem is games flip upside down in landscape mode but key mapping works great even with out kforraphel.
If someone know how to flip the screen ide really appreciate it since playing with the keyboard on to is pretty wierd.
also anyone have a good gba emulator outhere pocket gba is alright but not perfect...
bump- anyone how to fix the upside down screen in nesterj4u?
Has anybody tried running nes/snes/gba/psx emulators on their Touch2's? Is that even remotely possible?
Hi, midnyt17 . I have a psx emulator on my HTC Touch 2. It works very well. I tried to launch GTA2 on it and it worked. I watched the intro with no lag. Bu the thing is that Touch 2 doesn’t have a d-pad or numeric pad so you can’t control the game. But you can connect a Bluetooth pad to the HTC... well the emulator says so. But I didn’t test coz I have only playstation pads. But if someone tested let us know if it works .
I use Pocket GBA and FPSE. Pocket Boy Advance map go "back" button "menu" and "+ - volume" so that the games are playable in total. FPSE to say not very good but the map should be playable Diablo
I want to remove the virtual gamepad in android games like shadow fight 2 I play with a moga pro all the time and I map the controller keys to touch screen buttons now it's very annoying seeing the virtual game pad moving like a ghost to my button presses if there is a way like editing the manifest.XML of the games or a windows tool to do so please tell me I want to solve this and I am sure millions want this too so this thread when solved will help a lot of people
