Emulators (snes, psx, etc)

I came across this thread that hasn't been updated for over half a year but still applies.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1173601&highlight=emulator
It includes all those awesome Emulators that were removed from the market that can be found on SlideME now
a couple updates
I use DroidEmuROMGet to search and dl the roms
for CPS2 all those CAPCOM arcade games go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1483303&highlight=cpsemu
for NeoGeo go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402986&highlight=cpsemu
for psx use fpse
if anyone else would like to recommend other apps, I'm all ears.
I seriously spent hours playing a bunch of games @[email protected]

Nice! Thanks for putting all of this in one place. Time to play some old school games!

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.

Have you tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22260943

Max Payne Mobile

Hi guys saw this is out now but the market says its not compatible with the i9300 but there's videos of people playing it online. A quick search on Google hasn't helped me find out any more.
Any thoughts? Cheers

the support will be added in the upcoming updates wait for a few days

I think what those other people do is download the APK file with a different device and transfer them over to the S3. It should then install and play fine.
This game looks good, can't wait for my S3 to arrive to play it.

i have this game too its about 1,4GB big and its rly nice the graphics are good like in GTA 3

I bought it for my SGS3 on launch day. Works fine with no lag and sound works too.
Downloaded straight from the play store with stock Rom UK version.

It was available for the S III on the play store at launch, for whatever reason they've now listed it as incompatible.
I assume they've just made it unavailable to all devices they haven't explicitly tested it on themselves due to bad reviews, and it will indeed be fixed in an upcoming update. Naturally, it does work fine.

Thanks man, good info. There's teething problems with many apps I've noticed!

[Game] Dungeon Hunter 3

Anyone playing this? This was turning into my favorite game since they added multiplayer but now its unable to start. Has anyone else had this problem. I would hate to have to reinstall the game and loose my progress but I'm not sure when a fix is coming for it. Any ideas?

Use titanium backup and backup the app data before you screw around. Does it work at all on the N7?

It worked prior to the update, now its in a bootloop. I was starting to think that it was a problem with jellybean devices b/c I had the same problem on my phone but after trying again it now works. I've been reading the comments and it seems that the problem may be due to it not recognizing wifi only as an internet connection.

No problem here.
Everything was working fine until yesterday I noticed there is an update for it. I ignored it at first but when launch the game it stuck at the black loading screen. I went back and installed the update and everything worked again.
off topic, anyone has tip on how to use archer? I can't seem to get the control the shooting direction.

No problem here. Awsem now multi player.. Iphone has it for a while I believe..
Can anyone tell me the location of the gamesave file please?

Kind of off topic and on topic. I notice this is free in the Play store...Gameloft doesn't do free...so is this a "in app" purchase kind of game?

Yes, it's much like their other recent "free" games like MiB3, Ice Age Village, etc. where to get to the better items/unlocks you end up having to buy the extras via in app purchases.

I tried this game and don't like it. The first dungeon hunter was an actual game. I don't know where it turned into a "survive the wave" game.
Heroes Call THD is very similar but an actual, raid the dungeon and loot that mofo, game

Google play store?

Hey guys, I am new to android in general, but I am finding my way around. I side-loaded XBMC, and that works like a champ so far. Is side loading the google play store an option?
Thanks!

Nope, most of the Google Apps don't work due to the way they integrate with Android, which is stripped out of the Amazon build.

Incompatible games

Hello.
I've had my g3 for a couple of days now and some of the games i used to play such as bubble witch saga 2 are incompatible with the g3. They don't even appear on the play store, i have to click on the google links.
Is it basically just a case of waiting until they get updated or is there anything i can do?
Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Email the devs for any app you find that doesn't work, the app itself will be fine they just need to update their play store listing to allow the new resolution.
Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Same thing with the ESPN SportsCenter app. You'd probably have luck contacting the devs with smaller apps, but with some of the bigger ones, it's probably just a waiting game.
