Emulation Compatablity Questions - Shield Q&A

I've heard retroarch is very good with cartridge based games. In terms of playing GBA, SNES and Genesis titles is retroarch the ideal choice (including camelot GBA games, which i've had poor experiences in the past playing on my psp). also is psx emulation close to as good as what is available on the PSP?
I checked the reicast compatability thread and found a few titles weren't listed. They are:
-record of lodoss
-floigan brothers
-fur fighters
-tee off golf 2
has anyone tested these four games. also i saw a large amount of feedback with shenmue. whats the latest on how it handles with the current build. Thanks

I can't speak for all the emulators but for snes I use snes9x, it was also an emulator on the psp. The ps1 emulation is working great, just as good as the psp if not better. all I've played is ff7 and It works perfectly.

Any framerate issues on a game like Super Mario RPG (one of the SNES games with a separate graphic chip).

Alot of that depends on the ROM you load, but testing on mine went smooth as silk.

Games on Ispire!!!

So I figured I'd start an Inspire games thread because after rooting this device I really discovered its gaming potential! First off, gameloft has a good assortment of games that you can install, once rooted, through the desire hd page on their website (you could use sideload wonder machine if not rooted i suppose). The real treat however is the gameboid emulator that has hundreds of GBA games for free once you buy the emulator on marketplace. Best $5 I ever spent. Runs flawless on most games, controls take a bit getting used to but are decent. I also got the N64 emulator which is pretty cool but only plays a select few games without glitches, mario 64 looks great on the screen!!! Anyhow I hope you guys check these out.

I don't mind supporting the developer plus the paid version allows you to save your games.
Personally, I like the cool free games that are in the android market more than the usual emulators.
My top four are Pocket Legends, Tank Hero, Gun Bros, and Angry Birds. All are free, and a ton of fun.

I second that. Emulators are cool but control wise the games are designed for hardware and not touch screens. In contrast you have excellent native games for android like angry birds, gun bros, and pew pew. I like the native games best.

Are there any emulators for this phone?

Simple as is, are there any emulators for the Charge? I'd assume with these specs we would at the very least be seeing a flawless NES emulator, SNES might be possible and N64 just doesn't seem doable. Let me know if you could do it and if so, how. Thanks!
Theres emulators for everything, NES, SNES, Genesis, GBA, N64, PSX, and even NDS. Good luck finding them though since Google took them off the Market a while back. Go check out the Slide-Me Market, thats where they reside now. nesoid, snesoid, gensoid, n64oid, etc
Incredible! I honestly would not expect a phone like this to run N64 so well, my PSP can't run it that well haha, aside from the insane lag it gets when you attempt to press home and task kill it, it's pretty dam good.
SNES and NES are also impressive but not nearly as much as n64, and none of them require root access? WOW! Thanks a lot for the help!
Mojo gba lite works well. Has onscreen controls. Still in market last I. Checked

Genesis emulator

So I see a lot of people discussing N64 emulation, and even SNES, but is there any emulator that supports Sega Genesis out there that works with the Xperia Play?
MD.EMU is the best of the lot, if you don't mind paying. If you do, Gensoid and Tiger Genesis do the job fine.
I'd assume you're already aware of the obvious one Gensoid... are you looking for something that actually integrates touch-pad support?
best in my opinion is GENPlusDroid, easy to navigate and allows rewind in game (prince of persia esc rewinding in game, great for sonic )

Hmm I will have to try that one as well.
Make sure you play star control when you get that emu, will keep you busy for a long time.
No matter which one you use, most Sonic games are not emulated properly. I use MD.emu because it is trhe best by far, and it will emulate Genesis CD in future versions.

I'm just sayin'... if I ever get to take Knuckles Chaotix and Sonic CD with me on the same device, I might just come to the conclusion that the gaming functions of this phone > any form of social interaction... and keep this on Flight Mode 24/7 so that nothing can interrupt me playing games

Like I've said for a while in these forums the GENPlusDroid and SnesDroid are the best for there respective systems because they provide 100% compatibility and accurate emulation at the cost of performance. I had the same problem in sonic 2 chemical plant the water was transparent instead of pink and zombies wouldn't display any map. Those two emulators are the best for oc phones

Virtual pool is pretty good but I don't know about pocket frogs
Stick cricket and tennis are spot on!
Granny Smith is rather good. Im also playing Virtua Tennis which is decent
Although this is a great note, I am really pissed that some of the games are really pixelated and unclear I wish there was a way we could make display or resolution smaller
for games
To name about 1/2 of the games I have installed...
Angry Birds - love it on 10" of screen
aTilt 3D Labyrinth - Reminds of the real ones I had as a kid. lol, I never could make it to the end though back then!
3D Bowling - better bowling on a tablet than I am IRL If I only had an S-Pen to guide my aim in real bowling.
Crystal Defenders - life long Final Fantasy fan...
Dark Meadow - THIS perhaps is the most fun I've had on a game for a tablet.
Dead Trigger - Really is amazing what a tablet can do and I play with a PS3 controller
Eve of The Genesis - Had gotten this originally for my Epic4G but never played it. Started playing it on my tablet!
Fruit Ninja - Slicing fruit with an stylus sword! :victory:
NFS Hot Pursuit - not as good as the real game on my computer, but still looks good on the tablet.
Mass Effect Infiltrator - it was 25 cents, how could I say no? Looks good, plays well.
Monopoly - forget setting up the real board, this is the future right here!
Pac Man Championship - Sort of reminds me of the pac man arcade tables from my childhood. S-Pac-Man!
Peggle - S-Peggle!
Pinball Pro - not much to say here. it's pinball.
Pool Master - with realistic s-cue!
Quell Reflect - was free on Amazon. Puzzle game that's easy to play with the s-pen
Scrabble - had it since my Epic4G. Still works.
Shadowgun - It was free, compliments of my Galaxy SIII so I loaded it on to my tablet. Much better than playing it on the phone!
Sonic 4 Ep2 - It was free on the Samsung store. Retro gaming... Not my favorite, but it looks good graphically!
Symphony of Eternity - old school RPG that like EotG, looks good and plays decently.
Temple Run - I've heard of other devices getting lag playing this. It's lagless on the note. Decent repetitve time burner.
TurboFly - Had a pay for version for 2 years still works. There's a full free version on the Samsung store. Wipeout/FZero clone. Worth getting.
Virtua Tennis - It was free on the Samsung store. Not really a tennis fan, but still worth grabbing imo.
WIsh my gameloft games worked on the tablet, but they don't, and they refuse to assist me, so I don't buy from them anymore. Would be another 13 games I'd have to list.
some of mine:
bad piggie
angry birds space
agent dash
age of zombies
air attack hd
cytus (best music game ever!)
dead space
mass effect
eternity warriors 2
cut the rope experiments
fantasy defend
fifa12
Frontline commando
GTA3
hot persuit
judge dredd (best free 3rd person shooting game for me)
max payne
minecraft
niva
riptide
seven stars 3d
to-fu hd
more more more
Nova 3, n64oid, asphalt because it was .25c, then the basic chess, checkers, glow hockey, ping pong...
The first two are awesome and asphalt was kinda disappointing

I have many games on my tablet and most of them work well. Zapix, you have my style so you have many of the games I have; except dark meadow... It's free so I got it,
If I had to select 5 of my favourite games:
Granny Smith: It was on sale the other day
Spirit HD: Neat game, real addictive and works better with the pen than with the finger
World of Goo
ME Infiltrator
Tile Storm HD
JetPack Joyride: This requires special mention so I'll create a separate thread for this

lol, I've probably used my Note 10.1 (that I got in late August) for gaming more than I used my PSP that I got in 2007. Since I paired up PS3 controller, it's so much more fun to play games like Dead Trigger. Come to think of it, with the controller, and the adapter for HDMI out... Hmm. Nah, I'll leave my tablet gaming for tablet gaming, and consoles for the TV. Phosphor should make a Kinect version of Dark Meadow though. >.> Although I guess it would be best done on the Wii/WiiU
and now realizing I never put my NES/SNES roms on the tablet. >.>
Just in case I feel like laying around and playing Genghis Khan all day! xD

I may do that one of these days, especially if I were to pick up a 64gb card for it.
Then again, I would technically be better off playing PS1/PS2 games on my PS3 (80gb fat) on my tv...

Omg dude I love the choices, can you please add some more options .
Just got a ps3 controller, currently playing N.O.V.A. 3, GTA3, Dead Trigger,Dark Knight, Bards Tale, SNes, Fpse, etc.. also smaller games like angry birds, cut the rope, granny smith, Drawable, and so on. I wish I could play MC3 and O&C but nooo.
Sixaxis kicks ass! Although I have issues with Dead Trigger and GTA. If someone have a flawless touch profile for DT I'd appreciate it, the only thing wrong with GTA is that if I press L2 or R2 the controller no longer works, could be bug but other than that Everything works flawlessly.

Dead Trigger supports controllers natively, I have no problems with it. Just enable controllers under the settings in the game.

lol, yep it all works, Not something one expects since we're all so used to games having only touch controls. Seeing they can make native controls... Doesn't that make you wish they did that more often? xD
I just recently got Shadowgun, but really haven't played it, and I never did check if there are native controls... It's also by Madfinger though, so I'm guessing there probably are. Need more games with native controller settings!
Not sure how much if a difference it makes (I've run it on both and haven't seen any) , but if you're rooted, you can also run a little tweak to up the graphic settings from HIGH to ULTRA. I don't think I've seen any difference, but figured I'd mention it.
Here's a site explaining it.

Oh I already set graphics to ultra but thanks. But yes definitely need more games that support controllers nova would be great, I learned how to set it with the SNES emulator just a few mins ago, next I'll search to do that with fpse if its possible. I don't have shadow gun if it supports controller I may buy it. I'm running out of memory though.

Favorite PSP games for emulator?

So I'm just getting into emulators, and want to download some classic PSP games to play. It's been so long since I've had my PSP, I don't remember all the good games. So far I got Socom: Fireteam Bravo, Ratchet and Clank : Size Matters, Killzone Liberation, and Resistance Retribution. What are some of your favorites?
And just a heads up- I'm using the Moga Pro Power controller and it works unbelievably well with emulators, especially PPSSPP which is what I'm using for PSP emulation. Having your phone snapped into the controller turns it into a portable game console that is super convenient to use. I highly recommend that controller.
Also, please don't discuss or ask where to download the game ROMs from. Let's keep this convo specifically about the games themselves.

Crisis Core! I forgot about that! Some of these games are pretty glitchy. Socom worked fine at first but when I played it again it was all choppy. Dantes Inferno is unplayable, so is Killzone. So far the only game that works close to perfect is Freekscape. Are you guys having issues too?
