Gamepads?

I am interested in getting a gamepad for my PDA. I am not impressed with the joypad on the magician, at least for games. Also, I don't want to log that kind of wear. The only thing I have found is that folding bluetooth monstrocity that is being sold under all kinds of different names (freedom, chainpus, etc.).
I am not that picky, but that unit looks like the worst piece of product design I have ever seen. Bulky, and ackward. Is there anything else? I don't really care about BT. A cable it fine. I just want a straight forward gamepad for MAME arcade stuff. BT is nice, I guess, but playability is more important.
Does anyone have recommendations? Am I being too hard one the folding BT gamepad? Any reason why one of the numerous X-box BT pads wont work? This is the only thing keeping my Magician from fully satisfying my desires...

There is a cabled game pad for the ipaq series, maybe that could be rewired for the xda, I imagine the drivers will work ok.

http://www.beinteractive.co.kr/eng/products-p3.asp?prnum=3&prrnum=1

Does that chainpus pad work with emulators like gegg and pocket snes and not just games specificaly for the ppc?

I wouldn't mind finding out some more of this also. What I do know is this... You wont find a wired gamepad that will work on the Magician. No USB or Serial host. Xbox or PC bluetooth gamepads won't work unless you can find drivers for them.
Now here's the big question I have. What bluetooth service does the pad use? Serial? I know the Magician supports the serial profile, but are the gamepads on some profile the phone doesn't have?
I want it for the PSX emulator floating around! Nothing better than playing Tekken 3 at 17fps and bashing the touch screen to hit "virtual buttons"! NOT!

Here is an email I sent to PocketGames [[email protected]] and their response...
Subject: RE:Zeta Joypad
Hello,
I am interested in the Zeta Joy-Pad. Is there a version for the XDA 2 Mini... (Also known as the Imate Jam)
From: '[email protected]'
Subject: RE:Zeta Joypad
Sorry, there's no XDA2 mini version.
The thing is, they have stopped production of all zeta joypad.
Thank you,

Wich psx emulator is that? You got it running on your jam? I had fspce and it didn't run. cheers

I have the same one. Chances are there may have been an error in your game rip. Did you manage to at least get it to the main screen so you could try to open a game?
Oh, and you need a playstation bios. Grab one of these from a P2P network. The file names are listed on the emulator website.
I also found that if you start a game in landscape mode, it crashes. Start the game and get past the title screen in portrait, then switch.

I actually bought this gamepad when it first came out (for $100 ), and I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed. There's a slight lag the further you are from the device, but the Jam fits perfectly in between (and I even have a silicone case on my Jam). The gamepad simply adds more buttons to your Jam, so basically it works with every program, not just games (i.e. you can map a button for Windows Media Player). Therefore, it'll work great on roms (I used to play Street Fighter 2 all the time at work before I got GPRS). One warning, the motherf*cker sucks up batteries relentlessly, so you might want to get rechargeable batteries, or some batteries that simply will last long.
Hopefully this answers any questions. Feel free to ask some more.

I had a look at those gamepads. Damn they're expensive! Cheapest one I saw was US$119! Bugger that for an idea, they can keep it!

They're actually going for $50 last time I checked. I paid close to $100 for it..

Yeah, my bad. It was actually on an Australian site. Works out to be around US$70. I've found cheaper still at some US sites so it would be cheaper for me to import it.

i've got a freedom game pad. Cost 77 euro.
It work fine and i use it for most ppc games and emulation..fpsce, morphgear ecc.
Great deal

G'day,
for those who bought the gamepad, izzit any good when comes to landscape games?

Anyone tried this beauty?

If you are interested in alternatives to the MSI or Chainpus BGP100 bluetooth gamepad, google search "modded by bacteria" go to the "work in progress" section of his forums, and search for the thread "Re-housed Bluetooth controller". The creator of the site, Bacteria, will be transplanting the innards of the BGP100 into an SNES controller. Previously, he has transplanted it into a PS1 controller. It seams feasible to DIY into almost any controller housing.

you'd better check on http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_kw=Game&_kw=pad&_kw=magician prices range from under $ 100 and free shipping

Lets talk Emulators

Hi all,
Really enjoying my first Android device here. I want to keep exploring the capabilities of what this phone possesses. Can anyone recommend that best emulators for SNES, Gameboy, PS1, Nintendo DS etc? Are any of them confirmed working for our device?
Please do not speak of roms. I just want to know what the best emulators are on the Play store, or possibly off of it that will work with our device.
Thanks

I'm pretty sure they all work I cannot confirm snes as I personally hate it but n64oid by far the best n64 emulator ice used has built in cheats specifically for the roms u load into it.

Robert Broglia makes some awesome emulators for Android and iOS
Click here to get to his Google Play page. For his SNES emulator here is a direct link CLICK ME. His SNES emulator is his only free one at the moment. If I am not mistaking, it is not in Google Play due to some problem with Google not understanding he is legally permitted to distribute the emulator. I highly recommend Robert's emulators.
As for Nintendo DS, I do not know if there is a fully functional one on Android yet. I have seen some apk floating around the net, but most users reported it being unplayable. PS1, there are a few in the Play Store, but I can not recommend one or the other as I have not used them.

Another vote for Broglia's apps. They are top notch.

Yongzh is awesome. I use gameboid, gbcoid, and n64oid. They're all available on slideme.org.
The only one he's charging for is n64oid and it works on a handful of games. Although we haven't seen an update in a bit of time. His work was on the android market but it was all removed by Google and he lost interest in updating everything.
Really hope a nds emulator comes out soon! Well, one that works well. Handheld consoles are the only ones that work great on phones Imo.

Anyone using a wiimote for these

Thank you! I'll be sure to try these out. That fact that must of them are free is just fantastic.

surprised no one has mentioned FPse (PSX Emulator).
also, combine this with Wii Controller (using the Datel bluetooth wireless retro controller) and MHL (to HDMI TV adapter) and you've got a portable gaming machine. nothing like playing Metal Gear Solid wirelessly on the big screen.

Trying to get my hands on the white Nyko, but so far release date was moved to 11/15/2012. Can't say that in all my time searching I found much of a smaller one. There is one on Kickstarter that is pretty small and fits as a keychain, but the problem is that the games have to SUPPORT the controller. So far, Nyko is the only controller I've seen that wont require this since it will have the options to customize touchpad, button control, etc. to the controller itself. IMO wait for the Nyko controller. The black Nyko is out right now.

not small and may not be cheap depending on what you may already have.
PS3 controller and a Gameklip - hard core awesome.
you can also use a USB PS3 controller or Xbox USB controller (native support IIRC) get a used one and chop the cable to short it with a $2 ebay OTG cable.

or check look up the gametel controller

Well I managed to get the play pad pro a few weeks ago at a GameStop nearby and I gotta say its a solid controller but the compatibility isn't that great...it will work for emulators and games meant for gamepads like dead trigger but a ps3 controller u can map the touch screen to gamepad...a feature that nyko says will be in the future updates of their app. Their app as of now sucks but the controller has some dev potential ...honestly though I kinda wish I went with a ps3 controller where the dev is already here

You may find a right one from here http://dx.com/s/gamepad . After reading lots of review, I got this one http://dx.com/p/2-4ghz-wireless-dual-shock-joypad-controller-gamepad-for-pc-3-aaa-44217?item=14 . It's cheap and high quality. I have it for at least half a year. kids play with it a lot, without any problem.
Robust enough so it does not break. feels also heavy enough in your hands to give good user experience.
not need to install the driver - Plug and play worked on Win 7.
identical to brand-named joypads.

Thanks! Do you know if the regular playpad works the same way?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Just saw this on ebay.
Looks an awful lot like the Gametel with 2 analogs and a better dpad.

I quite like my phonejoy, though for some reason, the price has gone up (by $15) since I bought mine.

That's because shipping cost is now included I think.
I still wonder what I'm going to buy. I already got the Gametel but it feels cheap and really lack precision.
I play a lot of emulators and need something great for fighting games.
I don't feel really confident about Sony gamepad.
Their Dpad wasn't good back in the days, hard to make 2x quarter circle and stuff like that, but I never tried a PS3 controller though (are they really different from PS1 / PS2?).
I like the Logitech Dpad you can find on old RumblepadII and the F310-710 series.
But compatibility seems to be not that great from what I could find (few infos) and using the usb port (need to charge? stop playing ).
Phonejoy Dpad is great? you play fighting games?

this is pretty sweet i think im gonna buy one

Since I don't play often, and when I do it's just emulator stuff, I just use my Wiimote.

Assuming you have an android phone as well you could try this app it works for me I use it with nesoid and n64oid and believe it should work with gta and sonic it turns your phone into a bluetooth controller for use with a tablet or another phone as the host. Heres the link to the free version which I am using I am thinking of getting the full version so I can have other controller layouts. Full version is a $1.10 aus.

This. You need the OTG adapter + MiniUSB cable to pair it though (but once paired you dont need the adapter, it'll remember the pairing) I dont do a lot of gaming but when using it, it's been quick and responsive. (it does require root - and remember to change the input method after its paired and change back when your done or the onscreen KB wont show up)

You don't have to change the input method. You just have to select "Enable Gamepad" under Preferences -> Gamepad Settings. The gamepad buttons will work as long as the checkbox for "Sixaxis Controller" under "Language and input" in "System Settings" is checked. Pressing the start button will act as the home button even if you have the Samsung Keyboard set as the main IME.

Wireless Gaming Controller For Nexus 5

First of all I am not sure if this will go in Accessories thread or Question so forgive me.
Now that we have Nexus 5 in our hand, has anyone tried different wireless gaming controllers with it? I am planning to get one for decent price as gaming could be more fun for obvious reasons.
if I am not wrong nexus 5 (as some other phones) should work fine with xbox and PS controller, someone please verify if they works on not.
Besides that there are Bluetooth Controller from ipega, gametel and Moga.
If any of community members have one of these lying around, please test it with nexus 5 and also provide small review.

I can't suggest the original MOGA controller. i got one last year when they were free. and, while being free, it was awesome, i wouldn't pay what they were asking. the controls were sticking and there just wasn't a good enough "feel" to the sticks and triggers.
i wouldn't hesitate to go with the moga Pro though as i have heard good things.

Red samurai works just fine.

I use a PS3 controller with the SIXAXIS app. It works quite well, especially for emulators.

Thanks
Thanks all for inputs.

Going to try the iMpulse controller and then when I get the Drone one from Kickstarter around Xmas, I'll report back to see if it works. LOL. I have been using my iMpulse on my N7 for a while now.

Voted for Moga Pro. I love it. Updates to the moga app have made it function a lot better as well. Originally had the OG Moga and it was NOT great. I used a PS3 controller before as well, but you don't get the benefit of attaching the phone to the controller. Also I don't know if the PS3 controller plays nice with apps in the Play Store. Emulators sure, but other games in the playstore have been updated to work with the controller.
THe Pro is GREAT

A fellow future drone owner! High five! :highfive:
OP, I tried my wired Xbox360 controller with the N5 the other day and couldn't get it to work without a 3rd party app. I installed the demo version of "USB/BT Joystick Center" and got it working. It's annoying though because you have to run the app and switch input methods every time you play a game. Also 7 feet of controller cord coming out of your phone is kind of ridiculous...

I'm not a huge mobile gamer (I prefer consoles) but I found a good deal on the MOGA Pro, and I'm in love with it.
I have played Dungeon Hunter 4, Modern Combat 4, Dead Trigger 2 all with tremendous success. I won my first MC4 match with a KDR of 3.5. The responsiveness is great, and you don't need to be rooted. The MOGA Pivot app does take up quite a bit of RAM though (more than I believe is needed... 40-60 MB)
It feels like an Xbox 360 controller, and if the game is programmed right, all the buttons will be mapped comfortably, and sometimes allow remapping within the game.

Share deal please

For how much you got MOGA Pro. decided to buy it after all positive feedback for it. please do share link if you got it online.

Anyone know of a good deal for the uk. Or any good deals
Don't want to spend a lot on a controller

some cheap branded dual axis controller works too.
Meanwhile I dig up some old stuff and found out USB controller which is copy of PS3 dual shock and works fine with OTG cable without installing any third party app.I bough it for like $6. I tried it with shadowgun and Dead Trigger 2 which worked fine. so I will use it until I find some great deal on Moga pro or new affordable controller is launched in market.

Anyone tried ipega 9017 with this phone? Thanks in advantage

Hi everyone,
Sorry to dig out this tread, but I'm now starting playing with Google cardboard, and I'd like to know if anyone succeed to pair the Xbox 360 wireless controller with a Nexus 5.
Anyone ?
Thanks

Ipega PG-9025
I have Ipega PG-9025 and it's really good, for only 20-25$ you get dual "true" analogs, media keys, rechargable ~7 hour battery, L2 and R2 keys, 8direction cross and phone holder. Great value, has a soft touch plastic shell, which matches Nexus 5's shell. It's easily detected by emulators and tincore keymapper, can be used with iPhone and PC. But DON'T buy PG-9017!

You need to use the wireless receiver.
