Does anyone know if SNES controllers via SNES to USB adapters work on the Shield TV? If possible, I want to set up four of these (via powered USB hub) for some 4 player arcade and SNES games. I have one Super Smart Joy adapter.
I'm not sure about the wires ones, but I have the 8bitdo Bluetooth SNES controller. It works great with this shield via my SNES emulator.
Hi,
I'm not 100% certain, but RetroArch includes a "Super_Smartjoy_2.cfg" config, so this should be more less plug & play

Is it possible to connect an xbox 360 or ps3 controller to the evo preferably for use with emulation apps?

Controller
Xbox 360 not possible 2.4ghz i think. PS3 Bluetooth controller has not worked for me could not get to pair. Might need an app and could not find one.
I use a Wii remote and app off the market with Emulator and roms for NES. Works extremely well. The normal Wii controller feels small to me and cramped but very useable. I believe you can plug the game pad controller add on into the Wii remote and use it as well. Not tested but should work fine.
I am running CM7 so you have to be Rooted. I know CM7 and maybe other Roms? They use a changed bluetooth stack thats incorporated in the ROM. It's more universal to devices.
I love playing NES on any HDMI tv. Hope this helps.

Works great with the wiimote app. Easier to travel with as you dont have to carry the wii-mote + classic, and it has enough buttons for all emulators.
Hey guys,
I'm searching for a bluetooth or wireless gamepad for my future nexus.
Do you have any ideeas? I was almost into buying Wii Wireless Retro Controller but I can't find it anywhere so I'm looking for something else. Ohhh, this was my first option because is so COOL!
Another option could be Phonejoy's Gamepad, wich is OUT OF STOCK too. I could go for a PS3 SIXAXIS Gamepad, but I dont know if I can use it for other games like Shadowgun, Backstab, Dungeon Defenders (mostly RPG and FPS), not only with PSX Emulator.
Anyone who used a PS3 controller played games like the one above with it?
Thanks!
Just a word of warning you need to make sure your device is compatible. Even if it is, it might work with some app and not another.
There are some bluetooth controller to consider though like: Zeemote, MSI Gamepad, Wii controller (which seems to be the safe bet.)
Sometime you need to run a background 'keyboard' app to make some of these controller work, such as Bluez IME.
I have the iControlPad, but it only work with apps that support keyboard input, through the use of Bluez IME. The most fullproof way for me is still wired controller.
I'm dealing with the issue right now.
I use sixaxis for my PS3 controller but it seems there is lack of supported games.
I think trying FPse for it.
I've also Logitech gamepad (F710) and like you I'd love to see supported games beside FPse.

Give me a few days and this should become a reality with the Sixaxis controller
Honeycomb and ICS have native support for gamepads so they should work throughout the OS and games.
I have a PS3 controller on my Transformer and I also have the Wii Retro controller. The Retro controller sucks horribly compared to the PS3 controller. Plus they all connect via Bluetooth so any controller will act the same unless it comes with a specific binding app.
I don't have a Nexus but I think the PS3 controller is the way to go. I picked up a new white one at Gamestop for $29.
Datel makes the Retro wireless controller.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
I've done it.
Sixaxis with PS3 controller plus MHL to see it on my LCD TV.
Works great! But only in emulators like FPse (the emulator I've test).
I'll wait to the OTG cable and see if I can play with the gamepad on any game (which is not related to FPse).
do i need ROOT for all of this that you guys are talking about? i want to use the original ps3 controller to play games in my galaxy nexus but i totally don't want to root, please help, i don't care if i have to use cable or Bluetooth.
Not sure if this would work on phones, http://steelseries.com/us/products/other/steelseries-ion-wireless-controller
it does mentions tablets. it's coming soon.
Just wanted to get some knowledge of what works with a pad on the S3.
I'm using a £3.00p pad from Amazon, the mock ps3 one, which works suprisingly well, it's wired. No need for any extra apps to work, works in menu's too, no need for root access either, just plug and play over USB OTG.
Just noticed that the price has doubled to £6.95p

Hi!
Add Virtual Tennis Challenge. It works very well with a wired PS3 Sixaxis Controller.
Regards, folgui.
Max Payne, CS portable , PS3 Bluetooth.
max payne, nova3, dead trigger, battlefield bad compagny 2, NeoDroid .
I know that a lot of games can be played using the six axis app, but they aren't natively supported.
Do you know of any that are? Besides whats been already linked to?
Many thanks.
Oh thread got moved, i'd have thought that this be a general thing?
Has anyone been able to use a game controllers mwith their Maxx? Either Moga, PS3, XBOX, etc.? I have the Moga, and PS3 controller, but it seems to get them to work I need to Root my phone. I'd like to not do this.
I have the moga pocket and i dont need root
Only the moga pívot app and moga universal driver for ppsspp and drastic (ds emulator)
HI. Im into Retro Gaming and I would like to ask if it's possible to pair HTC 10 with such devices. I would just play with Emulators, namely for NES, SNES, Genesis & PlayStation.
Thankyou.
Should be fine, I use a PS3 sixaxis controller and epsxe without any problems.
You do need to use an app called sixaxis controller and be rooted for the app to work though as far as I know.
