There are very few GameLoft games that work on any Archos G9 devices to start with. For the few that do, they usually only show up on Google Play as being compatible with the 101 G9. Reason, simple, the 101 is wide screen, while the 80 G9 has a 4:3 aspect.
Unfortunately, I do not have enough room (memory left) on my 101 G9 to test things, but very often if you have another device that Google Play will let you install something one... then you can often use some app to make a backup of it, and then transfer that to your other devices and "side load" it.
Some things simply will not work at all, but I've found many that do work on my other devices but... sometimes the opening video does not display correctly... usually can just tap on the screen to skip it or just let it play out until it gets to the real game stuff.
I hate to say it, but you very likely will find a lot of things that are listed on Google Play as not being compatible with the 80 G9 simply because most apps were made for smartphones (or tablets) that have wider screens (16:9 or 16:10) instead of the 4:3 aspect the 80 G9 has.
Just as a side note, I have 3 Archos tablets (well, actually more but won't get into it here)... the 70b (with Android Honeycomb), and both the 80 and 101 G9 "classic" 8Gig models (with only 512M system RAM). Although not everything I've tried works on all of them, I have found that most things do if I can get it installed on whatever Google let's me (and have enough space to do so), and then make a backup, and copy it over to "side load" on the other(s). Of course, that only works because all of my devices use the same Google account.
BTW: What I mean by "side load", in case you do not already know... is that when you make a backup of an app and then try to install that .apk file on any device, it will complain about it being from an "unknown" source as a security protection. You have to go into Settings on the device and change it to allow installing from unknown sources first. Make sure you go back and turn that back off again afterward!

Got good and bad news...
First, the good news... Yes, you can install Dungeon Hunters 3 from Google Play on a 101 G9.
Now the bad news... and as expected...
Like ALL GameLoft games up until the only 2 they released this year...
Dungeon Hunters 3, even though it does install on a 101 G9 does not run, it just crashes out shortly after start up.
Transferred a copy over to my 80 G9 and the good news, yes it would install and download the rest of the game, but bad news... as mentioned, like ALL Gameloft games (except for the 2 they released this year) it also just crashes shortly after start up.
After Archos and GameLoft finally got an agreement worked out between them, then GameLoft released 2 games that would run on Archos G9 device. One of them is Asphalt 7: Heat, and I think the other one is The Amazing Spider-Man. I know Asphalt 7 works on both my 101 and 80 G9. Have not tested The Amazing Spider-Man, but I assume it will also work (because those 2 are the only ones noted in any tablet news sites as being able to run on Archos G9 devices).
Sorry dude, but that's just the way it is.
Ever since Gameloft transitioned to a universal package for their games (universal apk and OBB resource files), their games can be run on a G9 tablet (at least G9 80 Turbo). Perhaps it does not show as compatible on the Play Store, but the games generally work (Dark Knight Rises, Amazing Spiderman, Asphalt 7, Wild Blood, Modern Warfare 3,...).
There might be problems with menu scaling, and problems to get the games to install.
I bought asphalt 7 from play store and it feels laggy with 4.0.26 deodexed, so I installed oc kernel. I have archos g9 101 turbo, so i over clocked to 1,6ghz. Even after that it was a bit laggy so I installed chainfire 3d and dropped graphics to 16bit. I was thinking of enabling both cores and using performance to make it lag free without chainfire. Do you guys have any experience or a way to make it run better?

I am just curious can the Ouya play games that I already have purchased on the Google Play Store? I am interested in purchasing the Ouya but only if I can play my current games on it as well.

In theory... I put Play Market on my Bluestacks and my games that weren't 3D ran fine. With the proper hardware (Ouya) the 3D ones shoudl run, too.

Something like this would probably work very properly for the situation.
well they said we can root it so it should be very easy to install google play, so i see no reason why you couldn't. but some may be hard to play with the controller but we will see when we get there. hopefully mines here next month
Games on Ouya
I Plan to use Sixaxis Controller app with games that don't support controlers as i use it on my tablet and i can enable gamepad for showgun if needed. We need someone to test a gamepad supported game on the system with the Ouya controler to see if it works that way.
Does Ouya even have Google Play Store?
I heard it only has their own market (like Ouya Market)
I want my Ouya not only for games, but also a media centre. Like playing movies from HDD ext., browsing, twitter, facebook, and others applications from Play Store.
how cool is that :fingers-crossed:
it hasn't been stated one way or the other. If apps can be side loaded, then I would say even if it's there, you could extract Google Play and loaded it that way, as well as the apps you want. The only thing that isn't know, what apps will play nice with Ouya's interface using a controller. A lot of apps, if not all, are designed from a touch input design.
I don't know if there is anything that Google Play needs besides an Android OS to function. So there could be reasons it may not work despite being able to load it on the Ouya.
Ouya will have their own stores called "Ouya Store". All games are ported to support Ouya consoles.
Shadow Gun is confirmed to work on Ouya. Please wait for the rest announcement!
Search youtube for 'Ouya performance test' there is a guy with a dev console playing lots of current android games so should be able to.
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't Ouya have a touchpad on the control? That would work the same as touching the screen as long as there is a mouse pointer on the screen or you could enable touch location in the developer settings.
Maybe the new Store is like tha Amazon Store.
Has someone read something about the payment methodes?
any update on if anyone has gotten working playstore on the console?
The Ouya has a custom launcher and all apps and games are required to be recompiled with custom tags in their manifest. Only apps with these custom tags show up in the Ouya UI.
So its possible to adb push the Store and a custom launcher APK but you need a way of switching back and forth.
If you are not using the Oyua UI you will not be able to take advantage of the custom Ouya services such as ranking systems and friends lists.

You have to be rooted to get Play Store on a non-rooted Device.
If you do get root, contact theperson333, I think he can help.
I'm no Expert.

Yes it has in the middle of the controller

Ouya will be featuring its own app market, not Google play market. The system runs on android Jelly Bean, but that doesn't mean its the same as your tablet or phone. Customized UI and maybe a different file format for games (I'm assuming they're still apks though.) You can pick up the development tool on their website.
I hope they allow PayPal as a purchase method.
I've been "collecting" lots of games such as Batman, Spiderman, Final Fantasy, etc games from the Play Store anticipating using them on my Ouya... but now I am not so sure. Looks like they use their own store to pump apps and games through. I would hate to pay for the same game twice through different stores when using the same platform. I've done some homework and looks like the answer is "NO" they won't play out of the box but we are able to side load the apk files off of a USB. What are some comments on this?
Also, the reason I am really interested in the Ouya is the "controller" support. Any Android gamer should know that getting multiple controllers to read and operate independently is a real pain. On my MK808 Android Stick, each controller maps out the same, so both controllers function as Player 1. I REALLY love the option to have up to 4 controllers work for up to 4 players. I know they sell their own Controller, but does this work with existing bluetooth controllers such as a Moga or PS3 SixAxis (if MAC is paired via PC).
It launched today in Best Buy and I'm thinking of Picking one up. I know eventually the devs will hack it to do some crazy stuff but the controller support is VERY important. If I can't link up additional players, then I might as well stick to my MK808.
Long story short:
Can you side load an emulator and play 2-4 players (Mario Kart)?

I havent tried sideloading any purchased games but I have a purched utility app that wont work but the free version does, Has to do with drm. But I've heard people having success sideloading gta not sure if they were using a cracked version or not.

Yes Side-loading works it mostly depends on the game... some paid games from the play store wont work because they need to authenticate with the play store to prove you bought the app. Also some apps simply don't work because they don't support controllers...
also as for your question about controllers yes it does support PS3 controllers I've seen several videos of people using them, not sure about others though... I think someone said Xbox 360 controllers work through USB but as long as your controller is either USB or Bluetooth it should work.
As for your last question about multiplayer There is an emulator for free in the OUYA store called Mupen 64 and it does support up to 4 players so you would just need to get a copy of the Mario 64 ROM and you could play Mario kart 4 players. Not sure about other emulators though it really depends on if the emulator supports multiplayer.
Hope this helps!

The subject of should OUYA outright support the Play Store is something highly talked about on the forums (If you're interested: ) I've come to the conclusion that no, it should not be supported for the sake of both the OUYA and the gamers. WIth that said, you can always try sideloading paid apps and see if they work. If the game calls the Google Infrastructure as DRM, it will not work, but if the game only has local DRM and you manage to remove it (I know nothing about that) or there is no DRM at all, it will work. I have a few paid apps that work perfectly. One warning, though, I know for sure Square Enix games do not work without hacking the apk.
The controller support is awesome! There are other threads about confirmed controllers working, but I know for sure the SixAxis, Wiimote, and WIRED 360 (not the play and charge pack) controllers all work.
As to answer your question, this thing works as a great emulator machine. I've messed with a few emulators and they all support multiplayer, some even support multiplayer over network (i.e. between 2 OUYA's, may even work cross platform, like PC-OUYA or OUYA-Phone/Tablet, but I do not know for sure). I have not tried any over network play, but theoretically it should work.
For the most part you don't need to sideload any emulators, as most are already on the OUYA store. In fact, I wouldn't recommend using any sideloaded emulators unless you have to (i.e. none in the store) because they just won't work as well with the controllers or TV.
With that said, if absolutely nothing else (and there is a lot more I love about the OUYA), this thing is a GREAT emulator machine! Buy yourself a 500GB external HD, throw on all your games from the old 2600 to PS1 and you can play them all. They even have a semi-working DS emulator, along with a PSP one confirmed on it's way! There is even an NES emulator that has it's own indie game store built in!
Bottomline yes, it can do what you want and if you're into it for mainly emulation, you can't go wrong.
Yes sideloading works, I've played N64 with 3 people on Mario Kart 64.
I have 2 ouya controllers and a usb controller, worked perfectly fine. You just need to set the player controller number. SNES and N64 emus have the options to bind a specific controller to player 1 2 3 4 etc
Perfect! The controller was the big issue because like I said, other devices work with 1 device, but multiple controllers all read as Player 1. Even Mugen64. It isn't the emulator but the actual OS and how it handles controllers.
So I am super excited that lots of controllers are working. I have a Wireless 360 (PC Dongle), Sixaxis, Corded PC gamepad, and a Moga, along with a slew of Wii Controllers. I really just need a few controllers working at the same time for when friends come over and stuff. The software I am not too overly concerned about. I'd rather have games available that are SPECIFICALLY designed for the OUYA then a slew of mixed supported games.
I'm really wanting to pick one up. I already have a few 500+gb HDD's laying around I can dump roms too. Even my old 16gb USB Stick would suffice for most stuff.
Controller issues ans Play Store apps with costs
Hey guys,
this should be the right thread for my current main issues with the Ouya.
1. Yesterday I had some friends over and we tried to play Bombsquad with three controllers. I have two Ouya controllers and as the Ouya and also Bombsquad support other controllers like PS3 and Xbox gamepads I tried to connect a third controller. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to connect any of them (of course the Ouya controllers work fine). It seems thet the console doesn’t even recognize something being connected via USB. I tried to connect a Dualshock 3 Playstation controller via cable, a Xbox (wireless) gamepad via cable and a Xbox controller for windows (wired, Razer Onza TE). None of them were recognized by the system, neither in the game nor in the Ouya main menu.
Is there any special setting I have to apply in order to get them to work?
I know there is also the option to connect smartphones or tablets to play Bombsquad, but this is not an option because I have 5 controllers lying around and I rather want to make use of them instead of playing on my phone.
2. Also, I have a problem with the Google Play Store I installed on the console. I followed the instructions from the forum (Rooting the Ouya, installing Xposed framework, installing the Google Plus Store app). After starting the app for the first time I typed in my account detail and everything worked fine. However, I only have access to the free apps in the store and not to the apps which cost money.
How do I get access to the whole Play Store with all the apps?
Thanks for your answers and please let me know if you need further information.
Greetings from Germany

Not that I can see, also there are plenty of free emulators on the ouya store that run every bit as good as other 'paid' emulators.
The exception in my findings is that epsxe for android is far superior to other playstation emulators on the platform (also they support ouya out of the box).
Robert Broglia is the name to remember with emulators at the mooment.
Mupen64 is good but if you can find a 2.7 version of n64oid, it works even better for n64 games..
Retroarch android has many of these emulators built into the system and it is open source and free.

Cheers Danny.
I dunno. I paid for several of them. I was playing my GBA emulator of Final Fantasy 5 last night. All of my Emulators were on there. Actually they just updated the "Stock" NES/SNES/Atari Emu (it's weird though)
Ouya plays roms like a champ! The GBA emulator works flawlessly as does all the SNES roms I've tried. The SNES emulator is very jazzy and grabs all of the cover art automatically. I haven't used the "stock" version because you have to throw everything into a "Roms" file on the internal storage I think. I like my roms separated by console.
soo ive been crying since day one when i found out i couldnt play NOVA 3 on my newly bought shield, i thought about using a custom firmware but didnt want to lose functionality, i ended up adapting my 4tb hdd as internal memory so once i did that for me there was no goong back lol, so ive been trying to find a way to map controls and thought of everything and nothing seemed to work. sixaxis controller app didnt work when i tried a few times a year back but there has since been an update and now i can map the touch controls for nova and play perfectly so im guessing that opens up a lot more apps and games that require touch we couldnt use before but prob can now. For me this is the best early christmas present i could have asked for. Thought id let you lot know just in case ya didnt.
if you play Modern Combat 5, NOVA 3 or are generally into android online gaming, anything to do with Nvidia Shield, Kodi or Plex - join us https://discord.gg/XsMz44k http://droidshield.boards.net
I use Zulu full Android with game controller2touch it does wonders
Also I noticed we have good fps' for android and most of these games have no chat support which is odd. I play modern combat 5 a lot and have now made a server where we can use any windows, android or iOS device to use voice chat while in game. so download 'discord' free from play store, app store, website etc and join us here.
