Using Wii Remote to play emulators?

I've read about using a Wii remote to play games on the phone, but I'm not able to find a working app for the G2. Has anyone found one that works on an emulator? If so, what emulator are you using and what wiimote app did you find?

I use Rwiimote I think its called, from market, works great. I'm using VISIONary and snes emulator. Played mario for almost an hour the other day using this

Greetings from another SLC resident.
I had too much invested in my 8bit NES games to get a SNES system, so the only Nintendo games I'm even familiar with are the old ones. (I'm old. lol) Will those play on an SNES emulator? If so, then I'll give that a shot. Now if I could only find a NDS emulator I'd be all set!

Awesome don't see many people close on big forums like this lol. I see there's NESoid in the market. Lite and full. Full let's you save/load save states. Id reccomend that since its on phone. I always play mario or something whiile waiting then gotta quickkly pack up and go so that's nice.
Agreed on the NDS emulator lol. Best one I've seen is playstation, I bet the g2 could handle that but seems a bit much to me lol

the psx emulator works awesome on the g2. no lag. though i heard people having alot of problems with the wiimote app.

I haven't had trouble yet :shrug: to me it seems the psx has too many controller buttons to map to a phone is my hesitation

I haven't looked into this at all yet but is there any way to bluetooth a PS3 controller to a G2 to use with PSX emulator?

I use this: http://www.appbrain.com/app/wiimote-controller/com.ccpcreations.android.WiiUseAndroid

I was thinking PS3 or 360 controllers too

I use this too.
It works really nicely with psx4droid if you have a wii classic controller.
On NES though, you can just use the wiimote and map it within NESoid's settings.

i use the wiiclassic controller and i use wii controller ide or something like that. never had any problems with the program.

I've go the same setup. With snesoid.

Heres the original thread for the Wiimote app.

for ps3.... if your a dev, you might be able to craft something up. Only support I found was for Windows Mobile

I dont see any problems with ps games, once you overclock that is.
Goodluck, and let me know if you figure out a way to get the ps3 controller working lol... i really hope someone is working on this for Android....

I need some help. I'm using SNesoid Lite and Wiimote. I get the wii controller
to work and i set the buttons in SNesoid, but when i start the game the wii
controller doesn't work Anyone have any ideas why. my phone is still stock
I waiting to root when CM 6 comes out. thanks for any help.

There is a option in snesoid to enable rem remote controls. It's in other settings, use input method.

Onlive is... live : controller? Phonejoy?

Pretty exciting stuff. I gave it a shot and it seems to work well, but you really need a controller to go anywhere. Has anyone tried a phonejoy or similar with onlive? Or would you need to get the onlive branded one?

I actually just got my shipment notification from Phonejoy. I'm very interested in seeing if this will work. I'm crossing my fingers since phonejoy states the app must allow keyboard input for their controller to work. Onlive certainly allows for keyboard input. I'll report back once I get my controller.

PhoneJoy partially works
SO far I have managed to get the direction keys to work, but not the regular buttons. I will let you know when or if they are working.

Can we use the sixaxis program and use our wireless ps3 controllers for this?

I'm wondering, has there been any developement? I would LOVE to get my Phonejoy working on OnLive, it would make it simply perfect.

i just emailed onlive.
ofcourse, they want us to buy a universal onlive controller, otherwise they are unwilling to help.
heres a thought, figure out what keys do what on a bluetooth keyboard paired with the phone and then set up phonejoy to use these keys as buttons.

Yes, assuming sixaxis controller works on the SII. Only used it on my Tab

Could anyone provide an update on whether this was successful for you guys? My Kindle Fire HD is arriving tomorrow and I'm interested in using the phonejoy bluetooth controller with it and the OnLive gaming service.
P.S. The noob video for this site is hilarious. And awesome. I hope I'm doing the right thing. :laugh:

Samsung Note gamepad for emulators??

Well found out that it would be cool to play psx games with FPse emulator, works great) on Note with psx gamepad or even to play anything with gamepad on Note,
first to ask you did anyone tried any of this this?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Joystick-it-...ht_3658wt_1193
or
http://www.amazon.com/Joystick-Touch.../dp/B007KCSJI6
Looks like it could be a cool thing...
And second thing, did any one tried to connect any normal gamepad (via bluetooth or via USB), does it works?
I'm not sure which one to buy?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Phonejoy-And...ht_2796wt_1185
or
http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Wireless...#ht_5260wt_952
or any other on ebay....
does anyone has some ideas?

There are a few threads on this already, for more information.
Personally I have an iControlpad. And it works great.

thanks, well I was searching through forum but couldn't find anything..
anyway thanks

I bought this. Works great. Awesome controller for Minisquadron!

In my opinion, nothing beats a ps3 controller with sixaxis app.
Screen controls are just amazing.

+1 definitely agree with that. just sucks cause in some countries the ps3 controllers are terribly overpriced. managed to pick on up off of amazon for 30 bucks with a USB cable and an HDMI cable included.

Hi. Where can I find the sixaxis app?

Pretty sure they mean this:
Sixaxis Controller

I'm also using the sixaxis for emulator type games on my note and it works great.

After a lot of positive comments about the PS3 controller and the sixaxis app i have rooted the note and got the ps3 controller connected via the sixaxis app.
So, then i got n64oid emulator but now am having intense issues setting up a basic N64 controller map with the sixaxis app.
I understand the basic concept of making a keymap, but when i load a screen shot (from any orientation) it always loads in portrait, not landscape mode, and so i am not able to setup the buttons.
Anything boneheaded i am doing here?
EDIT: [solved]
Anyone struggling with creating the seemingly simple N64oid mappings on the sixaxis app, i can confirm that the droid map in this post works fine on the SGN http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22204123&postcount=23
EDIT: [screenshot orientation fix]

How To Setup A Wiimote On A Galaxy S3

heya,
here's how to setup a wiimote and classic controller on GSIII the easy way, no root:
http://www.yannickstechblog.com/2012/08/how-to-setup-wiimote-on-galaxy-s3.html

Thanks for using my app! :good:
I should mention though, use only original wiimote and especially the classic controller. Also, some of the newest "with motion plus inside" wiimotes don't seem to work right. In any case, I suggest a try before you buy tactics!

you're welcome and well, thank you for developing it

if it doesn't work using it in "bluetooth gamepads", try "key mappings" to assign hardware buttons. this should work!

How to use controller to play games

Hey guys.
Im on mobile so cant paste a link to the video, but search youtube for "gameklip android"...saw that today and while the clip itself interests me, im more interested in how to play my games with either my wii or xbox 360 wireless controllers or my usb pc controller.
Would love to know this!
Thanks.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SIII on MetroPCS!

Depending on the game you can connect the controller with an otg cable for your pc controller and xbox with wireless adapter. For the wii controler you have to be rooted to my knowledge and use an app like bt joystick. Someone correct me if im wrong.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

are you saying it's plug-n-play?!
I have an otg cable...off to try this.
EDIT: yes it is. Plugged in my pc controller and Dead Trigger picked up right away.
Question is now which games support gamepads?

I know some of the emulators will but not sure beyond that, I use sixaxis to map my ps3 controller for nova and duke nukem. It's more of a trial and error thing.

On the right path, but Wiimotecontroller and the handful of other apps I see for using Wii remotes all say they don't work on newer HTC Sense, Samsung TW, or Android JB phones (4.2 specifically). Going to read up more when time permits though, let me know if you are anyone else finds one that will specifically still work on the Sprint SGS3 *Grin* ..
