[POLL]Who uses game system emulators on their phone? - General Questions and Answers

I am only using Johns gbc emulator. Any other good ones out there?
Sent from my Skyrocket, ICSMOD5

I use GameBoid (GBA) and FPse (PS1) emulators. GameBoid is not on the market anyone (no clue why) but I still like it the best. FPse is $4USD. When you use these, you need to get a hold of the BIOS files (obviously) and the actual game files. Anyone know of any good sites to get roms for either PS1 or GBA? Thanks.

Only time I used an emulator was when I jailbroke my iPhone for the very first time back in 2008. It was great for about a month, but I noticed that my phone was running slower and not performing as good as it used to.
Haven't had an emulator ever since.

I'm using SuperGNES on my skyrocket. All the game ROMs i found have played flawlessly. The only thing is getting the controls layed out so that my mitts actually hit the correct buttons lol

Try CoolRom.com They had a ton of ROMS for games I thought I would have no chance in hell in finding.

Thanks for the replies guys

I use GBCoid (Gameboy/Gameboy Color), turn based RPGs like Pokemon work rather well with it. Anything more complex becomes an exercise in frustration though, so I dont bother with other genres.

only gameboid and fpse tried n64 one way too many buttons

I use vNESlight and Blue Tomato (Sega emulator) on my WP7 device...

I use anDosBox to play old DOS games on my Android phone.

I use gameboid for gameboy advance games and FPse for playstation 1 games.

I tried the NES Emulator

For PS1 games I use Xperia Play, umad? jk. I'd like to use mupen64plus Xperia Play version but I can't afford it from my country so I count on N64oid for N64 games. For GameBoy, Gameboid. If you don't have the Xperia Play you can use FPSe.

I use Droidemulite and you can actually use different system roms on it. I have my wiimote connected to it and its really good. I play it on my HP touch pad so I have a nice big screen to play on. Oh the emulator app is free by the way.

I can (and do) play almost every game on my HTC Vision.
Only games I can't faithfully recreate is 2D fighters

snes........

SuperGNES Lite

my Nokia n9 has an emulator that has nes, snes, gba, psx, amiga, and pico all in one. Its the best mobile emulator I've ever seen.

Gameboid to play RPGs like Mother 3 which is free in the SlideME Market http://slideme.org/application/gameboid
FPSE for some random gaming here and there. Playing Monster Rancher Card Battle II currently
$3.99 in Android Market https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.emulator.fpse&hl=en
MAME4droid Reloaded (0.139) to play random arcade games
Free in Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zZWxldWNvLm1hbWU0ZHJvaWQiXQ..

I love playing pokemon red on my Evo 3D. Sometimes I wish I had a keyboard so I could play faster-paced games.. Sometimes you lose where the joypad is on a touchscreen.

I tried out a few emulators back when I was using my Milestone.
I had Gameboid and the other *oid ones for nes and snes I think.
I used them with a wiimote for that authentic dpad and buttons feeling even though my phone had a keyboard.
It was a little bit awkward though, with the controller and the phone not being physically connected. It made me nervous balancing my phone on my knee while holding the wiimote with both hands, so I ended up going back to my DS and PSP for most of those kind of games and only playing actual android games on my phone.

[SKIN] Special Pad for SNES Multipad Morphgear

Hello! I've changed this skin:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=489147
for my wife She is playing Chrono Trigger and she couldn't catch THE RAT
Coursors are made as n+b w+b e+b +s+b so you can run all the time! There is NO COMBINATED BUTTONS (for example N+W). For menu there are other small buttons on right side. Everything works perfect for me & my wife
I'm sorry, but it seems that everything regarding morphgear, is pretty dead right now

in your opinion what is wrong with morphgear? I've search google to find the best option for my brand new Leo and Morphgear seens to be quite good Is there any better program that was directly write for HD2 or customized for HD2? You seems to be smart and advanced in Leo applications? I've also tried to run Chrono Trigger on FPSECE 0.10 (3 various ROMS) but it doesn't start ;/

In my opinion there is nothing wrong with MorphGear I like it and use it quite a bit (Primarily for mario, I gave up on chrono trigger when I lost around 4-6 hours of playtime, because I forgot to back it up...) I dont know what else there is on the market, regarding SNES emulators, and the link I provided was the deepest I've gone to find one Also as far as i know, MorphGear is the only SNES emulator (and gba, gbc, genesis and so on) that have been customized especially to the HD2.
The reason why you can't play Chrono Trigger on FPSECE, is because Chrono Trigger is a game for SNES, while FPSECE is a Playstation 1 emulator, which means that it only supports games that was created for Playstation 1 (GT2, Crash Bandicoot 3, etc.)
last but not least, Thank you

Offcors I've tried ROMS for PSX - I know that SNES will never work on FPSECE. I don't know is this importent but Chrono Trigger psx ROM is in NTHC or somethig It should be on PAL I think.

well you will need to find a ROM that has the right region formating (pal etc), at least i think so I actually dont know which you have to use, but I could imagine, that it depends on which bios you have downloaded for FPSECE

Best MAME emulator? Your opinion needed

OK so lately I finally bothered to take the plunge to finally grab a mame emulator I was just to lazy to start getting the games back etc.
So my question is exactly what kind of games cab you get running on these emulators personally I want killer instinct working but to no avail will it work, I'm using mame4droid ATM but I've only had a few games working pacman, space invaders, bombjack is what I've tried so far

tiger mame i think is the best plays most games i want like streetfighter 2, alpha2, alpha3, the third and all metal slugs plus have the save state did try killer on an older version but did not run http://apps.tigerplay.info/ have ago its free
Since i want to play all metal slug episodes (and not just 1 & 2), KOF 2001, 2002 and 2003, Street Fighter 3 Third Strike and other recent roms, i have no choice: TigerArcade
Tiger Arcade. absolutely. Plays NeoGeo CPS1 CPS2. And it has multiplayer support.

Still completely useless to me as it doesn't run any of the MK games. They are the only games I actually want to play on this and they don't run.

Killer Instinct will not run on the Xperia Play. The versions of MAME being used are far too old for it to work.

I play Killer instinct on my phone via Tiger Arcade. And it is actively still updating. Its just that the app is no longer oin the android market. The app is free however if you want to use save/load states it costs $5 to purchase, I paid and its the best thing. Nothing like playing Dungeons & Dragons with save option.
I have played Killer Instinct and Mortal Kombat on here before, I think though on the newer version the Killer Instinct no longer works, however MK does. I think v2.02 was when KI was working, but dont quote me.
It is on the SlideMe market:

I can assure you MK does not work in tiger arcade (neither do MK2 or MK3). I tried it just yesterday.
MK1 works on mame4droid, albeit with glitchy sound and occasional slowdown.

What emulators are You using for a normal play

Hi
I want to get know what emulators You are using. I'm asking for this because i had to change a system for ICS. And my favourite emulators (from *oids series) lags as hell on ICS and I'm looking for oportunity. I want to ask You for write a name of emulator - system, and why You are using it. In google play there are lots of diffrent emulators (lots of them are crappy).
OK lets start from me:
Frodo C64 - Commodore C64 - only one good emulator, plays almost all roms. Good speed (sometimes laggy).
Collen - Atari XL/XE - one of my favourite emulators of all time on android. Plays all games, great speed, quick saves, XP pad can be assign.
TigerMame 4.0.0 - arcade - good emulator based on Finalburn code. Neogeo,capcom games works better then on the other emulators. Fast, simple, fun (and there are DIP switches in last update !)
UAE4Droid - Amiga 500/600/1200 - best. From last update (AGA is now support) plays almost all games, hard disks are now avaible, XP pad works GREAT. Love it.
My Boy! - GBA - i look for good oportunity for oid version and I found even better. Works in full 60fps. Fast, lots of option to set, qucik save/load, light sensor. Just awesome. One of my favourite.
SNES 9x EX+ - SNES (Super Famicon) - SNES is my favourite game system. But this emulator is lot worse then snesoid (but snesoid is laggy in ICS). I cannot find anything better... Only one quick save/load slot. Some games works laggy (for example - Pinball Fantasies).
MD.Emu - Megadrive(Genesis) - Just like SNES 9x EX+ - it's not best. But SEGA CD games works. Only one quick save/load option, some games are laggy (for example Virtua Fighter 2). But better then laggy Gensoid.
NES.emu - NES - as above. One quick save/load. But it works in full speed without any lags, and all games works.
GBC.emu - GBC - I'm still looking for good GB/GBC emulator. This is good but not great. I'm still looks for a emulator that will play games from GB like in GBC (colors - not stupid filters).
FPSE - PSX - BEST psx emulator of all time. Fast, almost all games just works as oryginal, qucik save/load works great, lots of options (to make game works in 50 fps). I love it - and I will never change it .
Mupen64+ - N64 - I thought that N64oid will be best. But on ICS N64id "O"button open menu !!! Shame. Mupen64 works good, good games compatybility but it's works slower then N64oid...
I like DroidEmu the most. It's have many emulator inside it, easy setting and cheats, but PS emulator is separated.
Yeah - Droidemu is good. But on XP is unplayable - no button for options and for close emulator (only home button for get back to Home screen).

ePSXe have a good potencial - but it has less options, and for me - works little bit slower then FPSE.And besides I like options in FPSE (I know all prons and cons for all values).

Yeah. I really need to install this emulator. I playd a lot on it on Nokia N-Gage, E90 and Samsung Omnia. I never try it on Android device. Thank You for reminder!
Jrioni arcade and mupen64 are great emus for me!!
I have to completely agree with My Boy!. After using GBAoid for awhile, I had believed it was great until I tried to play one of my favorites, Mega Man Zero series. At first I thought it was just in my head when I noticed the millisecond lags in the game (when rushing in attempt to score A or S). However, when I tried the same file on My Boy!, there was just no competition. :good:
TheVicious, I noticed you had stated "light sensor" for My Boy!, are you saying that it works with Boktai as well? If it does I am set.
I read somewhere that it works. But I cannot manage to turn it on (mayby is that because I have wrong rom file). But sensors works with Wario Twisted (gyro sensor) and rumble pack. I will try make a solar sensor to work (for now works only L trigger+ d-pad). When get something I will write here.
this is my emulators that really really worth to install :
GBA.emu
MD.emu
Sene9x
NEO.emu
Scummvm
FPSE
NES.emu
GEMRB
Mame4droid reloded ( i know that tiger arcade is better , but unfortunately , i can't buy tiger arcade aand unlock save/load option . paypal i blocked on my country )
the emulators that i'm waiting for stable version S:
ppsspp
NDS4droid
Dolphin ( when this will be stable ,i'll change my lovely xperia play )
In the extremely rare instance that I do pick yester-decade's games over more refined newer creations, the .emus by Robert Broglia are the best of the best.
The -oids are more popular for being free and having time under their belt, but the .emus are far superior in every regard.
Guys don't forget Jrioni emulators
and play the best game of all time
"I loved this game. I used to not eat lunch at school, and go straight to the liquor store to play the arcade game after school with my lunch money."

Love the PCEngine emu, play Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire atm, really great shmup!
For me, after trying a lot of emus i m using :
-Retroarch for gb, pce, megadrive, megacd, fds, arcade/neogeo
-Epsxe for ps1
-Supergnes for snes
-Jnes for nes
-afba for cps3
-N64oid for n64
-Myboy for game boy advance
These are for me the best for gamespeed fidelity and graphics, interface.

Snes9x EX+ is free and the best SNES one i have run works perfect on the shield. the other EMUs by Robert Broglia were recommend to me too they cost around $2 each.

N64 = Mupen 64Plus (free)
GBA = My Boy (Paid)
SNES = SuperGNES (has both paid and free apps)
MAME = MAME4droid (free)
Sega Genesis = RetroArch (free but no longer in Google Play, also can emulate numerous other consoles)
Nintendo DS = Drastic (paid)
Playstation = FPse (paid)
Sony PSP = PPSSPP (free)
RetroArch basically does them all.
Yup, I use Retroarch.
These are the emu's I have on my Shield right now.
Retroach(my go to for a variety of different systems)
PPSSPP(still a work in progress, but its getting better all the time)
SuperN64
DraStic(superb DS emulator)
