No problem! I haven't looked into emulators since the mt4g days and I noticed a lot of emulators and apps to find ROMs went missing from the market. Searched and came across that goldmine. very informative and they all run smoothly, the fpse works pretty well too. only played ff9 and castlevania sotn on it so far.. buttons are kind of hard so gonna look into the sixaxis controller soon.
btw i recommend the capcom and neogeo emulator. AWESOME!
Where can I download roms for these emulators?
Edit: NM just read your whole post..
I cant figure how to make the emulator work. I've d/l some csp2 roms and can't figure how to play them. Can someone give me a quick tutorial?

you can always check the original thread.
what i do is simply download the ROM launch the emulator, search for the ROM and play.
you have to choose the actual full sized games, some are considered as "CLONES" and don't work properly. the games are usually bigger than 5mb, if one is about 1MB then i suggest finding another.. and i think the ones with the letter "u" at the end are also clones, not exactly sure.
so...
1. download rom
2. launch emulator
3. search for downloaded rom
4. insert coin and start!
From what I've read our stock rom will not allow us to use the sixaxis or wii controllers. There is a problem with the stock Samsung bluetooth stack. We can flash a CM or ASOP rom which will change the stack. However, that also removes MHL functionality as far as I know.
I'm currently using FPSE and playing some old Final Fantasy VII. Also have snesoid going.

Aside from modern consoles (ps2 onwards) what emulators would you love to see on the Xperia Play?
I'd love to see an N-Gage emulator (laugh away) as it had some decent games. I recall a WW2 strategy type game but can't remember what it was called, Tomb Raider and an Elder Scrolls game.
I'd love to see some PC conversions as well. There's a Metroid clone that looks like Canabalt called Minitroid that would be brilliant with the gamepad

I actually had the original N-Gage (still do actually) and a couple uears ago had the N-Gage 2.0 phone Nokia N-95 8gb. N-Gage 2.0 was terrible. Now the games I would love to see from the original N-Gage. Ashen, Elder Scrolls Travels: ShadowKey, Glimmerati, and my favorite - Requiem of Hell.
A Nintendo DS emulator would be awesome. Especially if you could play in landscape (with the gamepad) and see the DS's screens side by side

DS emulators for Android do exist, but last time I tried, they were too slow and had no sound, making them unplayable. I don't believe any updates have been made since.
Yeah I tried 2 of them but they were just to prove that it could be done. Unplayable

PSP. or at least them to add some psp games to the market.
I know that HTC has just became Playstation Certified but until then I'm thinking of trying out FPse on my HOX.
Has anyone here used FPse on their HOX?
How was it? What'd you play?
Chears!

I'm currently using it and can confirm that it does work well. But by no means is it perfect. Most games, when set up, will happly play at 60fps.
It does take a little time to get used to the settings and how each one effects different games (like having to set SPU Sync to play MGS) but its always being updated and improved and there is support on their forums.
PS I'm playing MGS, Gex, Spryo and Tomb Raider. All working well and scaling nicely to fit the screen, especially since the OpenGL plugin came about.

Thanks for the info
Are you playing with onscreen controls or using something like sixaxis so you can use a PS£ controller?
I'm interested in things like FF7 so I could use the onscreen controls for that no problem, tekken etc might need a controller.
I used to use the sixaxis app on my DHD which works flawlessly with FPSe, however I'm holding out for a none-root solution or s off for the time being. I also played FF7 and 9 and they play fantastically.

Would I have to be rooted to use Sixaxis? As I want to stacy stock for awhile with my HOX.
It does unfortunately, however ther are some alternatives. Check out www.phonejoy.us as an example or even http://www.droid-life.com/2012/06/0...uetooth-controller-for-android-tablets-at-e3/ that's upcoming

I just want to say that i was experiencing smoother gameplay on my Sony Arc than on my OneX at least for tekken 3. Could be the app is not yet fully optimized for tegra 3.

I did find none of the same setting could be used from my dhd but after lots of testing it goes quite well. Though, I do remember from the forums that Tekken 3 caused a lot of trouble for many
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
does anyone have any recommend settings? I find that FF7 looks pretty pixelated and the sound is kind of choppy.
Just go to in game settings for tekken 3 and disable bgm in sound settings, use your inbuilt music player to add music game then plays 60 fps no lag on hox ;-b

I just wanted to know what games work for you guys. I figured most games would be supported because of Qualcomm Adreno graphics. But I tried Mass Effect: Infiltrator which just crashes, and MC3 and Nova3 just say unsupported. So I just wanted to know, what graphically good games you all have been able to get working.
Thread is now just a discussion about games on the S3.
Shadowgun works.
Asphalt 6: adrenaline tells me my device is not supported.
Need for speed
Final Defense
Front Line Commando
Most Glu games I believe, Gameloft, on the other hand, rarely works
Riptide GP is a good one. Worth buying for sure.
Nba jam works.

Has anyone tried Chanfire 3d on the US S3? It worked perfectly on my s2, but now when I install it it reboots the phone, after driver install, and the app is missing? I tried to re-install the app, but says 'incompaitable update'.???

I don't know what kind of games your looking for but Minecraft Pocket works on mine and so does Game Dev Story.
Which needs for speed works? I have shift and it wouldn't work.
Temple run, Osmos HD, and World of Goo works

Max Payne does NOT work. You can move and aim but all the other controls are missing and the touch setup is grayed out. You can even bring up the menu to quit once youre in
It's BS about all these games that are not supported for the U.S. Galaxy S3. Millions of people would buy these games and so many do not even work. I have weaker device but at least it has way more high-end games for it. Either that or I can spend more money and get way more high-end games for my iPad.

Gameboid is an android gba emulator. Google it.
gameboid forcecloses to the rom selection screen on our device. well at least on gingerbread it does.
VGBA (search play store) works well for me...that said I hardly ever use it, as PlayStation 1 emulator (FPse) and the RPG's of my youth absorb 99% of the time i spend gaming of a cell phone....angry birds, meh, temple run? no thanks... I rock tales of destiny 2 , Final Fantasy 8, Star Ocean second story, etc in my free time...

No it doesn't, works flawlessly on my el29 (when I had it) and on ff18, my wife has the same phone el29 and it works great. I would recommend gameboid, it's the best one I found and tried several the play store and it's still the best. The apk might be hard to find so pm and I'll send you a dropbox link if you want.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Yeah, Gameboid is the way to go. And the apk shouldn't be that hard to find. Just google gameboid apk. For roms I would recommend coolrom.com, has a lot of good roms and they're easy to find.
critical strike doesn't work with xbox gamepad.
