I have tried both and even at 768 MHz with JIT disabled or enabled, I get massive lag playing any game only while pressing something on the virtual keyboard. If I don't press any buttons, games look like they run very smoothly, sound and all. But of course to play any game, you need to be holding one of the controls constantly. As soon as I press or hold any virtual key, my frame rate drops so much it becomes unplayable. I tried disabling haptic feedback on the virtual keypad, no effect.
I tried Super Mario World (snesoid), Donkey Kong Country (snesoid), and Super Mario Bros. 3 (nesoid)...
I just want to know if I'm the only one having these lag issues.
If anyone asks: yes, I own these original cartridges
I also had lag on the nesoid. Couldn't really play anything. I have tried all different settings and still had lag

Same issue so I just stick to monolopy now... completely unplayable
Bleh, and I've read that people don't have any lag with G1 (might be thanks to hardware keyboard) or Cliq XT (has no hardware keyboard, and same processor as us!)...
i've tried all of the hero's 2.1 and 2.2 roms and hve had snesoid/nesoid/gensoid/supergnes and they run fine on all the roms i've tried. currently im running zenhero and same thing, no lag whatsoever. i have not messed with any settings. just installed and played. also, im using the stock kernel for the sense roms. i noticed that whenevr you use a custom kernel and OC a sense rom than the lag on games is unbareable! that may be yalls problem. i always use "caligo chaser" for testing the lag on games. runs flwlessly on sense roms with stock kernel. but as soon as i flash a custom kernel....lag from hell!! anyways.... thats my 2 cents, hope thats helps you guys out
Hey, can anyone verfy that? If thats true then ill nand back to my non-oc'd rom.

download the caligo chaser demo and try playing it. if your on an OC'd sense rom then it should be laggy. if so then make another nandroid (just incase) and then nandroid back to your non OC'd rom and play the caligo chaser demo. $100 it will run almost perfect on the non OC'd rom
OK, so hang on... is what you're saying about custom kernel and OC only relevant to Sense ROMs? This is what I got from your posts...
A) If You have a Sense ROM, you need to run the original kernel. Hmm I actually wonder if this kernel would work, since it is built from the HTC Hero kernel source
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=750170
B) AOSP ROM should not lag in general
Is this right?
WOW thanks for the advice, cp0020!!!
Indeed after I flashed the kernel I posted above, almost all lag was gone, even during multitouch button pressing... thanks so much!!

lol no problem man. did you use caligo chaser to test it on? it should run damn near perfect on sense with stock kernel. and the lagginess crap is kinda weird, no lag with caligo chaser on the DD 2.7 and darch's froyo, which are OC'd by default. but when i flashed the blackmod theme the games(caligo chaser) was laggy again, just by applying the theme it made the games laggy. so its just kinda retarted. so whenever i flash a rom, i just stick with whatever kernel came with it
I can also confirm that using ZenKernel the lag on nesoid is gone.
I had this problem too on Fresh Rom, but now I switched to Zenhero and it runs great, I still get minimum lag though. =(

I justed install Dungeon Defender and all I can say is WOW!
There is NO OTHER game that shows off the power of this unit..
I am telling you this game kicks ass in graphics, performance and usability (for a tablet).
I highly recommend if you want to have a showcase application that shows off the power of the Tegra 2 PLUS a high resolution screen this is it!
I honestly was shocked how smooth the game looked, how high the textures were...
Anyway... wanted to share my impression for anyone looking for a showcase game or someone who was thinking of purchasing it for their G-Tab.
Yup, I was really impressed with that one. I also thought Dungeon Hunter was also excellent and ran very well on my G Tablet.
Minigore also looks great and runs very well.
I wasnt too impressed with Dungeon Hunter...seemed very dark and low textures were used - plus of course the main menu is all cut off...
I will have to try out Minigore...

Your menu is cut off in Dungeon Hunter? Mine shows up fine. Maybe you got an incorrect version for our tablets.
The textures weren't very good, but I thought the gameplay and overall graphics were otherwise pretty good for a mobile game.
Oops, just read that Mini Gore is from DavinciDevelopers, who stole the game Iron Soldiers. Maybe shouldn't recommend this game after all, especially for $3. My buddy sent me a copy of the APK so I hadn't read the user comments on the market for it.

I bought Dungeon Defenders last night for $2.99. Best lunch money I spent in a long time. Runs full screen no problems on my G-tab VegaNtab 5.1. It is really a fun game well worth the money. You pick a character and defend your crystal by setting up all sorts of barricades & booby traps ( data voice "thats what I said booby trap" ) Overall graphics were top notch you can adjust the graphic quality within the options.
I should also point out I bought "Dungeon Defenders: First Wave" Uses Unreal Engine

This game looks pretty cool but it seems to be only multilayer. Is there a game like this that lets you play against AI characters? I like playing games at my own pace since I consider myself a very casual gamer.
I've tried Dungeon Hunter on this tablet but it doesn't paint the levels well and the lighting effects are way off.

I don't know about using a Wii controler but I have one of these I've used for other games on my gTab and will likely use it on this game.
The only thing about this joystick is that the suction sometimes releases and you'll have to be careful so that the ball on the joystick doesn't smack your screen (I was worried the first time it did this as I thought it may crack the screen).
I've seen some other joysticks like this that is low profile and cheaper AFTER I bought this one.
Anyway, it is a solution.

Hey thanks six. I've been following it in the market looks like they fixed a few of the sound problems and other things....I might just jump on it too, this weekend. But ill wait for u haha.
Can you please let me know if it supports any other input methods,like wii mote. I would think it would be a ***** to play with the on screen keyboard.
The program is great!!!
The only issue I have is that the framerate is way to fast (didn't expect that), so the game play (at least for mario 64) is like mario on crack. I hope I can figure out a way to slow the framerate.
It does support the wiimote!

Sorry guys! Yes it's awesome!!! Especially on the G-tab, my 2 yr old and I have been playing Mario 64 and Mario Cart 64 like crazy! Well worth the money! Great in combo with "rom gripper ++"! It does run a bit fast on some games, but I am very pleased with this considering I bought all the *oid emulation apps for me and the kids, well mainly me. The on screen controller took a bit getting used to but wasn't so bad after a while. Yep wii remote will work.

I doubt that would work. But the wiimote works. Too bad two player games can't be played on one screen, at least not that I know of.
I can't find it. . . I search n64oid and it doesn't come up. . .
Super Mario 64 ,Mario mart, and pokemon stadium 2 no issues.
Starfox sound goes away during gameplay but the game plays great besides that.
Pokemon stadium intro plays but that's it. Excite bike 64 is a no go. That's all I tested.
Not bad for an early release.
Hell yes! Was actually trolling online recently for an n64. Mine got stollen my Meth heads a few years back and I miss it and my perfect collection of classics. If I can play Tetrisphere and conkers bad fur day with the wii mote I will be in heaven, and be able to keep a little more cash in my pocket. Those systems can be expensive now. Apparently all the stoners up here in the Northwest have a death grip on their n64s and wont give them up for cheap.

I still have my n64 somewhere in a box. I never did get rid of it and I wouldn't either. Maybe those stoners aren't that stoned after all.
I have been using an N64 emu on PC & laptop for quite a few years now and have at least "a few" roms. Result is I have roms that are verified to work.
Seems not many games work well with this emu yet, but some that do:
Super Mario
Bust a Move 99 / 3DX, 2
Diddy Kong Racing
Mario Kart
That is about it so far that I tested. All others tried either play slower, strobe off and on or backgrounds go black. If you like the games above, the app is good right now.
I have tried several dozen roms so far and the ones above are the best.
BTW, The games play half the speed on Incredible, so even slower.
This seems a beta release and $7 is a bit steep.
Update:
Sadly, the dev is following the same trend as with his PSX emu and each update makes the app WORSE.
Some games that worked do not now and games are a lot slower with the update from today. A lot now crash before even playing. BAD update.
I only wish there was a free version so I could test it out.
Anyone knows if it would run well overclocked at 768 MHz?

Yikes. This is exactly why I'm not so sure about paying $7 on something that might not even run on my Ally. And the 15 minute refund window probably isn't enough time to judge, either.
Works pretty good for me so far, tried Mario 64, Zelda Ocarina, and Goldeneye, all worked at normal speed with good sound. Donkey Kong 64 starts but controls won't work, assuming a bad ROM.
As I type, my Son is playing Mario 64 with the latest update. No issues whats so ever. Thanks for the heads up guys!!!!
THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!! (well this and full version of firefox) It seems to run great on my gtab, super mario 64 is so fast its funny, on the other hand Golden eye 007 runs at just about the right speed.
Just checked the description. G-sensor as analog. I might try this.

Mario 64 runs fine on my gtab but I can't get golden eye to run lol. Wanna trade??? Jk
The newest version of the app is slower, compared to the previous version, so not sure what version you folks are using. Same trend as with his PSX efforts.
Trust me, in the previous versions performed much better. it seems he got rid of the auto frame-skip and the current frames skip method does a bad job.
You really notice it on the Snapdragon (Incredible). Slower version.
Update:
I see what he has done now with the newest update. He has adjusted compatibility to be better for some games, but the net impact is slower performance. Hope he finds a balance
Hi guys, I got NfsMW working on our HD2's. It's not laggy but the problem is that after about 2 minutes, it just exits. What's the problem? Ram? I think that android turns on it's ****ty apps(for eg. Play store) to "update" them, and then they take too much of ram..
I'd like to see your answers, thanks. Maybe chainfire can solve the problem? Or we should KILL everything with ram manager?
Edit: Forgot to mention, I'm running Aokp jellybean build 3 from xylo on nand.

The new NFS: MW? I highly doubt that works without lag, I've seen the graphics and they're quite heavy for a mobile game. No single core, 404Mb RAM (in Android) phone could run it smoothly. Even Temple Run has a poor framerate. If you mean the old NFS: MW then that runs perfectly for me without lag, and it doesn't close after a while either.

I certainly wouldn't say without any problems. The game runs at half the speed it should! Even then, I'm impressed at how smooth it is since it's running on such old hardware.

Do you have a problem like me: You're racing and suddenly the game crashes because of GPU, RAM?
If you don't, how did you fixed it? I tried with that ram manager pro setted to hard gaming but I don't think it's due RAM.
When installed chainfire3d, it crashed my phone so I had to reflash my rom(stupid man forgot to backup current).

I managed to run it smoothly without those effects with normally downloaded data for Desire HD. However, after 2 weeks, the effects for POWERVR devices (better textures, lightning effects etc) activated, so it lagged horribly.

That's sarcasm, right???
I'll test it out in a bit. I can't remember my alt's password (Raymonf) so I'll just use my main I guess. Which I also don't remember.
Will edit this in ~30 min.
Well, figuring out my password was easy. Most games seem to run at 40-50fps. It's really hard to find a good game to test because it's not 2009 anymore, so that number is a little off if you're used to playing more expensive games (in terms of performance).
