Just wondering if any has tried to par up a PS3 controller to the Triumph using the Sixaxis Controller app on the Market? Since the Triumph has a HDMI out the combo would be great for games on the TV.
I dunno man, I have no gaming system. But there is a fully-functional accelerometer in the Triumph and a decent compass too (does that even help?) so it should be a possibility.
Yes they work.
I have played a gripton of emu games on my triumph. I play ocarina of time using the wii+nunchuck and I also use my dualshock from time to time. Make sure if you are on stock to get the umph kernel to overclock your phone(don't overclock it too much, I usually go for 1.3-1.5) when you are using n64oid. If you're on CM7 grab isaac's kernel... I have yet to try the psx emulator... I'm going to download some psx games tommorrow and try some ps1 classics and see how that works out. Starfox however was streaming not bad actually, almost no lag, but sometimes an ocasional hiccup comes up, just pause and resume, if the screen freezes. Damn I digressed! YES PS3 CONTROLLERS (using the sixaxis app) AND THE WIIMOTE (using the wiimote controller app) ARE WORKING ON TRIUMPH!
However a while back I wanted to pair up 2 dualshocks on the n64oid but I could only pair one. Maybe by now this feature has been implented? I'm going to check this out tommorrow too.
Glad to know ill be able to use the sixaxis app with games.

Yes, I have also successfully paired and played a Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Nintendo, and PS1 games with my PS3 controller. It takes a lil while to first setup the bluetooth pairing and then mapping the controller to the specific buttons (which you may have to change for certain games to play right) but it is quite fun!
I did have trouble pairing two controllers as well. I'm curious to see if that is even possible!
this topic androidguys.com/2011/10/24/turn-your-galaxy-nexus-into-a-pocket-console-with-ice-cream-sandwich/ made me think about gamign on the transformer, using the qwerty keyboard - is it possible to use the WASD keys similar to gaming on the PC? do I need a special app for capturing the key presses and "translating" them into something most android games can use?
well, no, however, most games don't use the keyboard anyway. Most emulators will support the keyboard right off the bat. If you're talking about flash games then, yes, it will work perfectly for those however, don't expect good mouse control in flash games. So, it really depends on the game because, to most apps, the dock is just like an attached keyboard and will treat it as such. Also, you CAN use a wii, ps3, or wired xbox 360 controller for games, it that's your thing (mario kart plays really well with the wii and nunchuck controller, just sayin)
Anyone else has tried the new ShadowGun game with XBox controller? I just tried, and it works flawlessly. You can re-mapped the button from the GamePad settings in the game to configure your own buttons preferences. The game is fun, smooth graphics, with the xbox controller it feels like having a portable console. Keep more games like this coming!

Ok, now that's really awesome. Just installed it and now I've got to get the controller.

you are using a wired controller is it also working with wireless xbox controller for pc?
More controller supported games
Hi, if you are looking for more games to play with your gamepad, try these:
1) Cordy
2) Reckless getaway
3) Reckless racing
All of the games above doesn't allow button re-mapping, but they are still playable. Enjoy!
Anyone tried with the wireless xbox controller?
I cant even get the whole game to work properly. There is no gun on my character, all shells that fly out from that invisible gun are purple boxes and all enemies are invisible. I thought this would be wider problem with tegra2 devices but clearly it is working for some.
I have send email about this to the developer. Hopefully I get a solution to this at some point.

apparently there was an update release on the market for the game stating that the character with no gun bug has been fixed. I haven't experienced that problem myself and havent updated. Hope this helps.

I had the same problem. After uninstalling then re-installing the game, it was fixed.
I have it and have played the first 3 levels using a PlayStation3 SixAxis controller plugged in via USB, its working perfectly, its awesome.
Indeed working great:

Why wired?
The PS3 SixAxis controller will work wirelessly. I bought a white one specifically to use with my Transformer for games.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV

It doesn't work perfectly though via bluetooth (I've used it both ways, infinitely better wired).

Yeah, with the sixaxis app the analog joysticks pull too much after you stop moving them.
On the other hand, USB works flawlessly.

The Xbox 360 controllers are not Bluetooth like the PS3 controllers, so they will not work wirelessly. There is a thread about getting the PS3 controller to work via bluetooth

You can use a wireless controller, but you need the Wireless Gaming Receiver in order to do it. The WGR is for hooking up a wireless xbox controller to a PC, but it works on the Transformer as well.

The thing about that is its a bug in the 1.02 shadowgun update. On 1.0 sixaxis worked flawlessly, but when i beat the game i wanted to play individual levels so i had to backup data, update(uninstall/reinstall) and restore data. On 1.02 i noticed the joysticks pulling. Hopefully they fix it in an update.

Thanks, exactly what I needed to know before I purchase the game
Hi There,
I'm using the Sixaxis app to connect four PS3 controllers. I am using SuperGNES for SNES emulation.
Wondered if anyone had any success configuring and using four PS3 controllers (or Wii remotes) to play games like Super Bomberman or NHL 94?
If so how do you configure four controllers? I can only see options for two.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

I can't help you.. but..
Wii-motes? :O Please give more info.
Thanks for getting back to me.
I'm using a Wifi Motorola Xoom, running ICS and attempting to use any SNES emulator in conjunction with four Playstation 3 controllers. The controllers themselves are easily recognized via Bluetooth by the SixAxis Controller app, but I cannot seem to find an emulator for Android that supports more than two of them.
While I was able to get four Nintendo Wii Wiimotes recognized and configured via Snes9x EX, I'd really prefer to get four Playstation 3 controllers working.
Just wondered if anyone had ever attempted this and found success.
Wait, I think I found your problem. IIRC, SNES had a max of 2 controller ports. Even PC emulators can't run in 3-4+ player mode.
N64 has 4 players.
But are you saying 4-players works fine with the wiimotes..?
Hey StickMan,
Thanks for getting back to me.
Actually the SNES released a peripheral called the "Multitap" which allowed four player gameplay with certain games. Among them was NHL 94.
I was actually successful in getting four players to work with an emulator called
Snes9x EX which allows you to "Enable Multitap".
I was then able to connect and configure four Wiimote controllers and play with four players.
Snes9x EX has native support for Wiimote controllers, but I could not seem to connect or configure PS3 controllers.
Would love to be able to get those working!

So, I originally used my PS3 controller to play games on my tablet. I loved it but for some games you had to go in and map certain controls for different games.
Well I read that there are supposed to be drivers in the TF101 to support game controllers so everything is mapped correctly. I used that before and used that with my Onlive controller. I got the controller so I could play onlive. I did some method of inputing commands into terminal to get it to work for most of my apps.
This was when I was on honeycomb and revolver. I am on stock ICS right now. Not the newest update yet. I could never get dead space or pocket legends to work with the controller. I find it strange though that for the xperia play games like dead space and others work. Technically, if the tablet recognized the controller I don't see why it does not work.
The only real flaw with the onlive controller is for EMUS the bumper triggers cannot be mapped. Like L2 and R2. Won't even work for shadowgun. So basically, I am wondering if there is another way to get more games to work with controllers besides doing the emulator terminal thing. I am not sure if updating restores that as well.
Thank you.
