I have a pretty large collection of ps1 games & was wondering if the playing experience was good enough on the xperia play running fpse? Is there noticeable slowdown?
Yeah, plays them (well most of them perfectly), just been playing Gran Turismo 2 on my XPlay, look in general forum to see which games work, FPSE doesnt work straight away with the PSX controls, you have to map the buttons, but that takes seconds
I don't know what version of FPse you are using biggary, but i've tried quite a few games on the latest FPse and i didn't have to map the buttons.

Anyone have or know of a working gameboy advance emulator? I tried the latest version of PocketGBA, but the screen rotates the wrong way when I pull out the keyboard.
Anyone have a working emulator?
Morphgear works, but you have to purchase the GB & GBA modules (the SNES and Genesis modules are free). In Morphgear, you can change the driver to RAW and then change screen orientation to East and window size to Scale to Fit. Then you can map the keyboard keys as a DPad and have the game running full vertical resolution. The GBA games run very slowly, though. If you don't purchase them, the GBA game stop running after 5 minutes of play, so you can at least test it out.
If you turn on the sound the games barely run, so you'll have to play muted.

Click to collapse
So if the games run very slow, is it even worth paying the $20 for the emulator?
Probably not. I had to stop playing FFV Advance because it was so slow. I moved on to Breath of Fire II for the SNES because it plays in real time.
It's a shame that all emu development for the SNES and GBA stopped ages ago. None of the emus take advantage of the new hardware.
I have been desperate for a decent SNES emulator for my touch pro 2 and have found a way of playing the games on my phone since Morphgear is all but useless on our phones. Put haret on your phone and run Android http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=627997. Go to the Android market and download the free version of SNESOID and enjoy. It plays nearly full speed on our phones. I would however recommend that before running SNESOID that you close all applications running in the background in Android before attempting to run a game. I can't wait until sound is supported with the Android build for the Touch Pro 2 then we will have our cake and eat it too. Hope this helps some of you guy's that have been searching for emulators as I have.
I'm sorry, but why is morphgear useless?
(I'm sorry, but why is morphgear useless?)
Hey Scalage. Speed and the interface of Morphgear is what to me makes it useless. When I play SNES games I like to play them to play as close to full speed as possible with sound. Morphgear just don't cut it on a WVGA device unless you are running it on a phone like Omnia 2 or HTC HD 2 with much faster processors. So it didn't take me long after I installed Morphgear to uninstall it from my Touch Pro 2. If you have found success with Morphgear then I am impressed. But performance with games like Super Mario World and Mario Kart when I tried it really disappointed me.
Hi,
I was wondering, whats the better emulator, the built in one (hacked to load any game) or fpse? Im talking GFX quality, compatibility, performance etc.
Thanks in advance!
They both have plusses and minusses. Some games that work flawless with fpse don't work with psxperia and vice versa.

Hi!
I have been playing a lot of emulators on PC during the years. But is right now thinking of buying an Xperia Play, because I understand that it´s quite a nice phone. It´s on quite a sale in scandinavia right now, so I might be getting one during the week.
I would however like some input for some questions, and would be thankful if someone would take their time to answer them for me.
1. I have problems finding a reliable compatibility list for PSX-gaming. Three of the games that I really itch to play are "Alundra", "Final Fantasy Tactics" and "Legend of Mana". Can someone please enlighten me how these games will run on a Xperia Play?
2. I also have a question about other emulators. Will SNES & Genesis-emulators run lag-free on an Xperia Play?
Thank you for reading (and maybe answering) .
The Xperia Play is really awesome for playing games in emulators. The only problem is that most of them don't support the touchpad.
These are the emulators I've tried:
NESoid
SNESoid - completely lag-free, to answer your question
N64oid (sometimes a bit laggy)
GBCoid - gameboy color emulator
GameBoid - GBA emulator
FPse - PSX emulator
Unfortunately neither of these support the touchpad. And for PSX games I actually prefer FPse to the official PSX emulator that comes with the Play, because, while the official one supports the touchpad (very nicely, might I add), it is a bit buggy with most games that aren't available officially for it.
not sure about genesis as i haven't tried it yet. snes is no problem as is gameboy/advance/colour. on the psx side of things, you could try fpse or psxdroid for emulators. you would need the roms for those games you want as well as the bios file. or, you could also convert the roms of those games to work via the play's playstation pocket app. the pre-installed crash bandicoot game will give you an idea of how smooth it is once converted using the psxperia tool.
This is a magnificent device for emulators. Nuff said

I have emulators for Yongzhi's emulators for:
-Gameboid - GamBoy Advance
-SNEWSoid - Super Nintendo
-Gensoid - Genesis
-FPse - PSX
-N64oid - N64
And they all work flawlessly and are availble at the SlideMe market for FREE except for the N64 and PSX emulators. The PSX emulator is avaible on the Android Market and works on a lot of games but of course not all of them. I would suggest you visit the FSpe forum to find out which specific games work for the Play.
The N64 emulator is available from the SlideMe market for I think 2 bucks. I works okay with some games but is still be updated. Also u can try the open source one but I forget what it's called. I think it's on the XDA forum somewhere.
I tried FPse emulator, I tried both Resident evil and Gran Turismo 1.........
The Graphics seems to work perfectly, Renders all animations perectly, even better than android games......... I was blown away by the graphics.............
I faced problems on both games.......
I have the Digital controls set, But On resident evil i couldn't attack the zombie, I pressed all the keys but no use...... On gran turismo, I couldn't get the car to run, Which key to use.
And Can we use the touch panel to control the games, It would be awesome.
And what other games can you play on it....
Please help
well i used fpse few days ago, used tekken 3 mortal kombat 4 and some other games tekken 3 was just not playable other is good.. everything went good with controls but you just need to make them smaller
I haven't used a Playstation nor an Xbox........
So, How do you make them "smaller"?
I can't see no L1, L2, R1, R2 in my screen in landscape mod
