Is there a cheap console-like bluetooth gamepad that works with Android (not necessarily this phone in particular, as I don't know if it supports HID yet.
Also, is there one with joysticks that can be mapped to emulators?
EDIT: http://www.clove.co.uk/phonejoy-analog-android-game-controller I'm looking for something like this minus the expensive price tag.
I saw a post on redmond pie that is drivers for using a ps3 controller. I don't think it is yet compatible. Our Bluetooth protocol isn't supported. I suppose a dev would be able to make the changes to make it work though

personally i would use it for Gameboy, sega etc emulators.
I posted that before those drivers were released. I have a PS3 controller, and I guess I just have to wait for AOSP now.

I've got psx4droid working great as well and with full screen. I was hoping I could use the wiimote with it but that's a no-go for the time being. Can you give me the model number for your MSI controller?

Is the Gamepro app the only way to get the msi bgp100 to work with the tab? Just wondering because it cost a ridiculous 10 bucks.

I'm holding out for wiimote support on the tab so that I can use one of these:
Power A MiniRemote
Can someone put a photo? :]
Yeh gamepro is needed for the controller to work but it is worth it as now works with nesoid snesoid etc!

I'll give gamepro a shot. But before I can install that anyone know where I can get this msi gamepad? Dealxtreme is out of stock and I cant seem to find it anywhere else other than ebay where they're asking 130 bucks for it.
Did you guys have to tweak any settings to get it working smoothly?
I can get it to run but the games run so slowly making them unplayable.
I was running JM6 (now JME).
ROMS i tried were Megaman and Mortal Kombat in *.*bin format i think they where.
I had to UNECM the ROMS as per a n instruction i found online.
Now that some of you have gotten your hands on this device, could you try the wiimote app to test if it works? I know other htc devices haven't been able to connect, but with the new sense, I'm curious to see if it works. Thanks!
I am desperate to know this. I have seen people playing mario 64 with a wiimote and have yearned for that since. But dont really want a motorola to do it. Its not a deal breaker, but it probably should be.
Positive I read someone said it won't work. But if I had a Wii I'd give it a try.

More than likely won't work. Have not seen a bluetooth 3.0 phone work yet. You can check in the g2x forum I think they got the zmote to work.

For somereason devices running sense or touchwiz have never been able to use wii controllers. On my g2x I can only use it if I'm running cm7 or another aosp based rom

According to HTC's bluetooth spec it should work. Sense 3.0 BT stack has support for the bluetooth serial port profile which is I think what the wiimote uses. Have to wait and see, but there is hope.
Anybody able to test this?

Tested - Does not work.......
Hi guys, I tested this using the Wiimote Controller app by CCP [email protected] and can confirm that it would not pair with my Wii Controller.
If anyone has tried any of the other apps I'd be keen to hear from you as I'd love to be able to play all my old NES and SNES titles on my emulator on my new Sensation......
Damn...

I thought you guys might want to know about this: I went to Best Buy yesterday to get a Wiimote for my G2x and came across this much smaller controller:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/POWER+A+-+ProPack+Mini+Remote+and+Mini+Chuk+for+Nintendo+Wii/1168433.p?id=1218228673832&skuId=1168433
It's the length of the phone, it's light, and you can put it in your pocket. It doesn't work with the Wiimote Controller APP in either Froyo or CM7, but it does work fine with Bluez IME in CM7. I haven't tried the nunchuk attachment as I'm just using it to play SNES and MAME games.
So how is that Power A Wii remote working out for you? I see mixed reviews for use on the Wii with sync issues and lag, but if it work fine on an android phone, i may think about trying since its nice and small.
I use my PS3 controller. Works like a charm on the fitsnugly CM7 kang.
Yeah but that a lot bigger and more expensive, plus i was really only thinking of using it for basic NES GBA and Genesis emulation for now.

I was wondering if there is a cheap controller/gamepad that you can use on your Optimus One? Or if there is an app I can get to let me use my Xbox controller, or iPod Touch as a controller. I find the virtual gamepad unusable for most games. I just want a cheap way to have a alternate gamepad. Any suggestions? Btw im using the Oxygen Rom. Thanks

Looking for zeemote type controller?
been scouring the net for some time, haven't come across anything.
Get a bluetooth mini keyboard and just configure the buttons. Thats what I did and it works great
Will a Zeemote work on gingerbread?

I'm using the Wiimote Controller with CM7 based rom. It needs to be on nonstock rom based since there is something wrong with the bluetooth of stock roms. It works very well with the wiimote and also with the classic controller if you need more buttons.
The 6 axis controller compatibility checker says that it would work for the phone too but I havent tested it yet.
Thanks for the reply man. I actually just ordered a wiimote on ebay yesterday because I can use it on my ipod emulators. Its great now that i know it will work on my phone too! One question, I am on the Oxygen rom. Would bluetooth work on this or should I get CM7?

I can also recommend to have a look at Phonejoy (www.phonejoy.us), works with more than a hundred games and doesn't require root. So definitely worth checking out!
I have a big question, is it possible to manipulate touchscreen gestures with ie. a Wiimote or Sixaxis?? just like if they were a cordless mouse??
so for instance i could play GlowHockey with them???

He's talking about Bluetooth keyboards like this :
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/mini-b...ia-symbian-s60-cellphones-black-37863?item=52
It works well with CM7 based ROMs. And if the game you are playing is compatible with hardware keys, it will work well for you.
I have the same keyboard on the link, worked for me, but its form factor made it uncomfortable to use for long periods of time.
I shifted to Wiimote + Classic controller for playing old school games.
i dont now for moment !
later information you :B
Ok I imagine it would be fun to go to a friends house and hook up your 5$ Micro HDMI cable from your phone to their TV and start playing some strange video... but besides that, what would be the most impressive? I'm thinking running some video console emulator would be the best trick, if friends with androids could get a bluetooth controller app off market and could play VS.? Is this even possible?:fingers-crossed:
Yes, it is possible. You can use a wii remote, PS3 controller, or USB keyboard as a controller for the games.

theres an app called sixaxis controller that should allow you to pair a PS3 controller thru bluetooth
i also found this which looks kinda kool, i didnt read it to see if it has specific requirments, just looked cool as hell and caught my eye lol
http://www.gizmag.com/gameklip-android-ps3-games/23592/
Also there are some emulators that have built in controller support so all you have to do is pair it with the phone and map the buttons. But for the sixaxis controller app you need to be rooted for the controller to work. Rooting will also give you the option to overclock the processor so some of the more graphics heavy games will run smoother.

That is pretty sick! At first I though it was for the Keyboard function of a smartphone but actually the screen for the game! Though I'd like to see that mount different...In the gaming sense for VS games Tribes Ascend?!!Wonder if they'' have a android app prolly not .... It is better and does not require the TV...In the mean time I came up with using the TV connected to the triumph for a mobile security detail using tinycam monitor installed on the Triumph connected via HDMI to TV and SeCuret spycam Livestream (vs ip cam it has the benefit of detect motion @upload to dropbox as well... Feeding video is all IP camera does
