[Q] Which gamepads can you use with the transformer? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know you can use the Wiimote, but can you also use the "classic controller?"
What about the Xbox 360 controller? Wired only?

Yes, I've been using the Classic Controller to play n64oid.
not sure about the XBox 360 controller, perhaps 3.1?

I only ask because I already have 360 controllers, but no wii controllers. I'm gonna pick up a classic controller through. Can't wait to play some old school games haha

btw, as far as I know the classic controller has to be tethered to a regular Wiimote.

you need a Wiimote to hook the classic controller up, but once you have both, your good.
With the 3.1 update, any USB gamepad will work. Now, the Xbox 360 WIRED controller should work as it was shown. as far as the wireless one goes, you'd have to buy the USB cable for it and i doubt the wireless adapter for windows will work.
But literally any USB gamepad will work with android 3.1, and there are many many usb gamepads out there.

3.1 is going have all sorts of USB connectivity for joysticks, mice, keyboards, etc, at Google IO I guess they used an Xbox 360 controller.

Any Wii wireless classic controller work?

I know the Datel Retro Wireless controller works, it's been verified, but i believe from what i see at Amazon and Best Buy, it's sold out or discontinued.
I'd like to get something similar for a trip i'm taking, so my question is will any wireless Wii classic controller work for the Xoom? Or should it?
e.g. Amazon.com: Thrustmaster T-Wireless Gamepad for Nintendo Wii: Video Games

I am still waiting on my Xoom to arrive but on my Evo I use the official classic controller with analog sticks with the wiimote app and it works great. The only downside is that it has to be plugged into the wii remote as it isn't a stand-alone controller. This is why I am looking forward using my Xbox controllers now.
Isaac in Best Buy the other day and saw a wireless gamecube controller in the wii accessories section. Not sure if it would work, but worth checking into. I use the Datel controller, if you Google it you can still find it.
wireless gamecube controller dont work because they arent bluetooth. they have an adaptor that plugs into a gamecube port. Try to find the datel retro wireless, it's the best options. You can get them on datel.com. I bought mine from another xda'er.

That's the one. If you get it I would recommend going over to the "Xoom Accessories" forum and looking up the thread on the Datel controller. They discuss a must have mod for the controller to really work well.
Edit: Here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13018984&postcount=28 I did the mod myself, it was easy to do and made a noticable difference.

android bluetooth game controller

hello everybody
I just finished my project. "a Bluetooth game controller for android"
I took a wii mote and a wii classic controller pro and put the wii mote circuit board inside the classic controller pro with rechargeable batteries.
After a lot of debugging i came to the conclusion that you can’t use any non wii brand extension for the wii controller app.
You can use a non wii brand wii mote for it but no fake extensions will work.
So I used a fake wii mote and a real wii classic controller pro.
here is my youtube video: youtube.com/watch?v=2L-l48vUDYs
sorry for my bad English
Nice mod.
thanks man,
i have an update but i cant post foto's so.
the update is an telefoon holder.
Amazing mod!!! Can you post a tutorial on how to make a wireless classic controller pro?
yes i can but there is to little appreciation for it.
it wil cost me to much time that i dont have now.
sorry
That's sounds great, I think that a USB game controller should be released so we can play some games in the "old" traditional-platform way.

Ice Cream Sandwich is suppose to add USB controller support. I wonder if it'll be possible to port that back to older devices.

With 3.1 honeycomb people are using usb 360 controllers to play i have heard.
Cool, but I have no tablet nor can I buy 1, so all I have left is to hope that my SGS I9000 & my Google N1 will support it in some CM8 or something.
usb controllers are already possible for tablets with usb host but than you still have the wire.

this is nice too.

Yeah, it's great for 'official' tablets, but what about those with tablets running 2.x? We want USB game controller support too!
Maybe this Evo2 thing will help with bringing USB over to froyo/gingerbread.
Anyway, android sure could use some physical game controllers (wired and wireless).
i personally dont understand why people want usb controller when you can have wireless
Less battery drain, easier to manage (Wi-Fi's & BT's network protocol is more complex) ans of course less radiation.

Using controller for emulators

Hi guys, I'm really interested in getting an emulator such as FPse, but I'm wondering if my xbox 360 will work with it. If not, will a bluetooth game controller do the job? Thanks for the help!
i never tried a xbox 360 controller but my ps3 controller works perfect with sixaxis controller
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
A wired Xbox 360 controller works pretty well with SuperGNES emulator, haven't tried it with FPSe yet.
I'm not sure if a wireless one would work though
If you're using the PS3 controller there's a new site that users can share and upload profiles for the best Android games. It's called Sixaxisofpower lol
http://phandroid.com/2012/09/27/new...on-maps-for-paired-playstation-3-controllers/
I use usb joystick center. Works with most usb controllers, I use wii mote tho in wireless. It also has a touch to joystick addon that allows you to map button pushes to specific touch points on the screen. Its really phenomenal software. I play Max Payne and GTA3 with a wii classic controller pro plugged into a wii mote[gives you more buttons to map than Ps3 and XBOX controllers]. It does take some patience to learn the app, its customizable every way you can think of.

[Q] Can I use a game controller?

Well, it looks like the stock HOX supports usb otg now, but doesn't work with the xbox wired controller. o.0
Do I have to replace the kernal to get the support to work?
Also, what about the PS3 controller? Can I use that with just rooting?

For the ps3 controller, you can get the six axis control app. Well worth it. No wires needed either

Currently there's no android device that supports ps4 controller connection. You can use a ps3 one, though....your phone is ps certified, so you just need the controller. No root and such stuff.

Don't worry, there are many diferences between the controllers. For example, the ps4 controller has a touchpad, while the ps3 one doesn't. Also, they differ visually. Anyways, it's pretty easy to connect a ps3 controller to your htc one. I haven't found a proper video showing the way you connect it, but I'm sure you can find one on youtube....
