I know on the Nexus 7 Sony PS3 SixAxis bluetooth/USB is supported out of the box with USB connection and seems to be the universally supported controller. I don't have the cabling to try but the Sony controller works fine for me over bluetooth with SixAxis app (requires root) on GN 10.1.
Wii also works
You can also use the Wii with the classic controller attached.
I'm using it and works great.
You need to use Wiimote controller app for some to work.
I think most people have a Wii... Try it.
Ill try it out with other controller then. I find it weird because on the tf700 I used to have it worked great maybe because of the powered USB on the dock?
I got my OTG USB cable and mice etc. seem to work fine. Tried the wired xbox controller and while it is detected via the BT joystick test app, it wont work in any apps.
Tried another generic USB gamepad today and nothing, not even recognised in the test app.
So has anyone managed to get a gamepad working natively? The main reason I ask if that my mum likes to play the odd old arcade game (cool huh) and she would need gamepad support and wont bother if she has to pay out and configure another it all via another app!
thanks
guess not
I have gotten a wireless sixaxis controller to work via bluetooth, but my wired xbox controller will not work.

Use a ps3 controller. No wires = boss. And you can even use it for touch screen only games.

yeah if I could get one cheap then it would be great, my mum wont be up for spending a fortune
I have the same problem here. In my case I have generic USB controller and totally the tab and BT joystick test app cannot detect it. Did you manage to make it work?
For those who were able to get the game controller to work on tablet, which ROMS have the sixaxis program installed?

u can usea wiimote and a classic controller they are cheap
I have seen a lot on the internet about getting PS3 and Xbox controllers to work on android phones and tablets but I haven't had any success in getting it to work. I connect my controller up to my OTG cable and then connect it to my GT-P5110 and when I do the controller lights up and continues flashing, but it doesn't work on any of the games that support it and doesn't seem to send any input to the tab. I also own a GT-I9100 and have tried it on that too with no success. Any information would be very helpful thanks.
NOTE: The OTG cables on my tab and my phone are both working fine for other things such as mouse and keyboard and usb flash memory. Also my phone is on stock 4.0.4 Rom and rooted with cf-root using the siyah kernel and the tab is also on stock 4.0.4 Rom and rooted but with stock kernel.

Xbox360 - SmartGlass
Not quite what I was looking for. I want an Xbox controller to control games and emulators on my tablet or phone. Excellent app though will have to try it out with my 360 later.

tried it with no luck alas
Me too... I have used my XBOX Controller on my Prime but not working on GTab2 7.0.
the apps I've seen are for connecting controllers thru BLUETOOTH, i don't know if it can be done WIRED.
does not work natively, need to use USB/BT Joycenter
I bought a PS3 control TTX Tech brand, but I could not configure it, my computer does not detect it, my question is whether it is possible to use it with my INFINITY or can only used with the PS3

How does it connect? Special PS3 wireless thing, or bluetooth?

Alright, from the attached picture it seems like this controller uses RF to transmit to that dongle, so using the bluetooth method of connection isn't an option. Really I can't think of a direct way to do this. Perhaps if you have a port adapter for your tablet to make it into a standard USB 2.0 there could be a way to make it work, but without the exact details of your tablet and more info on the controller, that can't even be attempted.

Yes. The PS3 uses Bluetooth to connect controllers. That one uses RF which the PS3 doesn't have built in.

I believe the Sixasis app in the Play Store states that a lot of knock off controllers wrong work. If you don't hand an official PS3 controller, it's all worth the $60 to buy one!! I use my PS3 controllers with my phones and tablets. I've got one controller that I use solely with my Note 2, as I have a GameKlip mounted on the controller. Another controller I use with my Infinity and '13 N7 FHD. I use the Sixasis pairing tool program that I have installed on my laptop to switch between my Infinity and N7 FHD. Occasionally I'll use my OTG dock that I bought for my Note 2 to switch the controller to my N7 FHD. Even better when using the HDMI port on the Infinity and hooking it up to my 55" Sony LED TV! Dead Trigger is probably my favorite, but I've also bought all of the GTA games on the Play Store, and they're all great as well!! Android gaming is sooooo much better with a PS3 controller!!! Especially when hooked to my TV! Friends will walk in and think I'm playing on my PS3 or XBOX 360, and are always shocked when I first tell them that I'm playing through my tablet
I highly recommend buying a HDMI to micro HDMI cable, as well as an official controller!! I'm sure Asus will continue to put a micro HDMI cable in their future tablets, so the cable a good investment! The Asus Infinity successor definitely has the micro HDMI port on it.
Off topic, but I can't wait for the New Infinity! It's gonna be a beast with the Tegra 4 and all of its other specs!!!

PS3 controller
You dont need an special app! Play an game with the PS3 controller via USB and enable the Bluetooth. After 10 minutes you can find the controller in Bluetooth settings. Connect the controller via Bluetooth and now you can play without USB kable.
Sorry for my english
Were can you find the cheapest controller that works online do any off brands work or does it have to be a Sony one?

In the six-axis app description I believe it says using any controller other than the original Sony controller will not work and the control mapping will start messing up and won't work correctly so yes you do need the original controller. You could also try using MOGA controllers if that's what you prefer but I don't think it works with the six-axis app

Hello all,
I have had my tablet now for a week and love it, but I need a controller and the shield controller is still to far out. So what controller are you using and which controller should I look at. Also would a blue tooth keyboard mouse work with game like half 2?
I have been looking into the Moga Pro, think I'm gonna go get one after work today and give it a try.
I've been using the Amazon Fire TV controller and it works great. Tried it on a lark and it worked without a hitch. All buttons and toggles work great including the dpad. Haven't tried the audio buttons or the button to access the web but all the relevant game buttons and triggers work flawlessly. Easy setup too. Turn on Bluetooth, sync controller. Done.
Alright thanks for the help I'll look at both those controllers and Dcaplinger if you end up getting the moga pro let me know how it works out.
Before I had the Shield controller I used the iControlpad and the Steelseries FREE controller. Both have nice dpads and the button presses feel like 1st party pretty much. Unfortunately they do not have L2/R2 buttons so when I needed them I used a PS3 controller.
I'm currently using the Moga Pro controller and it's working well for me. I haven't ran into any problems yet. The cheapest one I heard that works so far is the Gamestop one for like $15.
I haven't tried console mode yet since I haven't bought the HDMI cable, but if you're planning to using console mode then the NVIDIA control might be the way to go as it has the touch keys. I read other users say it's quite a pain with regular bluetooth controls. (Only from what I read, so take that into account).
Im yet to find anything that works better then a ps3 controller.

How did you get it to work with Trine 2 or Unearthed Trails of ibn Battuta? BTW I'm connecting via USB as I found if connected to BT I can't play any nvidia grid games which is another issue.
Anyone have experience with the Nyko Play Pad controller?

If this was a response to me, that's what I mean when I said I'm connected via USB. Ps3 controller is so limited.

Yup plays great on the Grid. I had to remap some of the buttons on some of the games to match though. But I can't get it to work with trine or unearthed.

I'd say just definitely go with the Shield controller, I have the Moga Pro which I had bought for my Tegra Note which has now been replaced by the Shield Tablet, I really didn't like the Moga Pro at all, pain to setup, didn't like how it felt, it felt cheap, and it just sits there collecting dust now. I got my Shield controller last Monday though and totally love it, I love it so much in fact that I really hope someone comes up with a way to use it as a PC controller since it really is such a great controller and definitely worth the premium price over the Moga Pro.
