Game Emulator

Hey fellas, I'm just wondering what kind of emulator you can use for the Tilt and what type of roms does it support, like can you use the same roms that you use on your computer for it or is it something else?

I use Morphgear and it works great. ROMs that work on your computer should be able to work on your device.

I use "Pocket Nester" for NES roms and "Pocket SNES" for SNES games, all of which are normal roms you normally use on the computer. I also have a PSX emulator, which was pig slow on the orbit, but I havent yet tried it on the kaiser.

Alright well Morphgear sounds the most popular, does anyone know if this will be compatible with Virtual Boy Advance game saves? Could someone please test this for me, also does it use the same extensions? ".gba", ".gbc", and ".gb"?

pocket snes emulator is for snes games .smc format, nes games are .nes that`s why pocket nes won`t recognise the format.

Don't snes games run real slow on the kaiser..? I only found NES games to work wqell on it.

I can only get decent speed on morphgear with the sound disabled for snes games. Anyone got decent settings for snes emulation please?

I run Dutty's latest rom (June 7th (?..)) and pocket snes works okay on that, but it really depends on the game. For example, FF6 is okay, Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo is good, but Killer Instinct is a bit choppy.

Aside from the ones already mentioned, I like to use FinalBurn, it lets you play some neogeo, and some other arcade games.

i can get super mario world to play well on pocketsnes with sound on a 2 fps skip but for some reason if you enable auto skip it slows down quite a bit the newer roms are definitely the fastest. has anyone been able to get pocketgba or genpp working?

Tried and True Emulator Apps (NES, GBA, ETC.)

Hello All,
I was hoping if anyone can post their experiences using thier emulator apps.
Been using 'Gameboid' for a few days now. Im pretty impressed it runs the games it does. Sound syncing is not 100 percent but doable or you can even turn off your sound. I can confirm Advance Wars works VERY well and is a must have if you use the program. I am overall satisfied with it and hopefully will continue to see more compatibility with more updates.
**PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY GAME DOWNLOAD SITES AS THIS THREAD MAY BE SUBJECT TO CLOSE IF YOU DO SO... Thank you.

I use Snesoid religiously. Love it.

i use gameboid and snes emulator regulary buyed.
snes go well, you can play but without sound because it eat more resources.
gameboid go, but it's a little bit slow, and it's a problem when you play games like micro machines, mario etc because you have to take an immediately responce, and you don't have it
i use a dream with cyanogen mod 4.2.5

I turn off the sound since it is a bit laggy/buggy on my device. Overall I can recommend all of yonghzh emulators. I really like em...

i'm looking for a emu that runs classic-gameboy games like super mario land or solar striker
any recommendations?

Just got Snesoid yesterday and have used it for Link. Ill post my thoughts on it once I use it for a few days.
Theres a Genesis emulator out there too but I havent used it yet..
Hoping theres a few more people out there that can offer us more reviews on these apps.
There will NEVER be a game that will be an Android game as elaborate as a SNES, GBA and or NES one.. never.......

nes, genesis, snes, and gameboid emulators all work great, i've played quite a few games on all of them. scummvm is another great emulator (of sorts) and i've been playing return to zork, discworld series, 7th guest and beneath a steel sky with them.
still excited about gaming on this platform and it will only become better in the future.

If you like point & click games and missed out on many oldschool classic (or, wth, even want to play them again) i would recomend scumm. It works great on android device, especially if you have a trackball (kinda slugish it is, but for precise aming - priceless)
I've read about Android Arcade Emulator (capcom, neo-geo arcade games) but I'm not using it (those games where made for playing with mates - kinda hard on small device ), apparently it runs the more famous games without lag.

I also use gameboid. works great.

I just got gameboid, got the bios and everything, but when I go to play any game, it takes a second then force quits.
Im running Cyanogenmod 4.2.7.1,, or whichever is the newest one. Any help?

It depends on which game it is, its not 100 percent compatible yet. Also make sure the bios file is not compressed by any programs (ex. winrar, winzip and or power archiver)
Ive downloaded some games that force closes it as well. What I did was simply delete the game and threw another one into the SD card.
Report back and let me know your results and we can both figure out another solution if you cant play another game..

The best emulator out right now is ggNES. It runs NES games at full speed with sound on. No slow down, no errors, just perfect.
I like the xxxoid emulators, but the app author isn't making them run more efficiently, he's adding other stuff. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad he's even updating, but full speed emulation can be done, and ggNES had a free version to boot.

ggNES is a definite download and is running great on my G1.
Time to play Bionic Commando and kill me some Hitler:

Issue is, While RPGs and Tactic based games. (Yes I love advance wars) Are great on the emulators. Games like Star Sigma etc are harder.. even mario is hard. Seems action games are just harder to manage that fast paced stuff on the emulators. Anyone else notice that?
Or have they got better? Curious about the snes one tho if that runs smooth.
Edit: Just read others.. I agree I use gbaroid and nesroid and while the dev makes updates.. the speed seems to be the complaint.. but I really dont wanna buy ggnes just for speed after I paid for one.. heh..

ggNES is currently the best at playing Nes roms. Try the ggNES lite and see how it works out for you, if you like it why not buy it?
Snesoid runs good at least on my phone. Its also dependent on how many apps are using up your memory. Get Advanced Task Manager to fix that problem prior to using any emulator.

Ok Ill give it a shot. I use Taskiller pro personally. Works well I think. Unless you know something works better? Advanced Task Manager I have as well.
Maybe its decent enough to play River City Ransom. =)

There are alot of programs similar to Advanced Task Manager, yours is one of them. As long as they close unused programs it should be fine.
Hopefully you see improvement running River City with the Emulator change. Let us know how it went..

scummvm, mame and UAE4Droid (amiga)..anyone has them running fine on this phone?

I cannot get the Amiga emulator to work...I start the game and just get a black screen.
Regarding scummvm, cannot find any versions that seem to be for our phone...anyone?
Thanks for any help...emulation is a big thing for me

So I have ScummVM and Mame now....anyone can help with the Amiga one?

You say ScummVM is working fine? It would be nice to play some Full Throttle on this thing

It rocks mate... here you go:
http://anddev.at.ua/news/scummvm_port_in_progress/2010-06-02-1
I have also some of the FM TOWNS versions of the games which look better and they all rock...love this thing!
With jarcade and scummvm , my emulation paradise is almost completed.

PSX4Droid or SNESoid?

I had both of these on my gtab, cant get them to work on xoom... they open but when i pick a game it goes to a black screen then back to game select
anyone get these to work?

The most recent version of SNESoid Lite works fine for me. I've been playing Mario RPG lately without any problems, and I played Mario World the other day with my Wiimote Classic Controller connected. I just grabbed it off the Market and haven't had any trouble yet.
I know the 3.0 version of psx4droid was crashing on Tegra chips (or maybe just the Xoom), but the latest version (3.0.5, put up today) attempted to fix it. ZodTTD has said that he doesn't have a Tegra device so it's been hard for him to debug, but you can keep an eye on his site: http://www.zodttd.com/wp/
Edit: Just tried psx4droid and it crashed on me, so it looks like there's still some issues with that one...

i have snesoid full 2.2.2 and no dice, but the lite version thats 2.4 works, ughhh

I just coughed up the $4 to get the newest version from the market and it worked, on to beating super mario world again
oh, and I had psx4droid running on a old version 1.7 on my gtab im trying that now, will post results shortly

psx4droid v2 1.1.2 works on my Xoom fine, along with Snesoid 2.2.4.

Have you tried FPse For Android?

Awesome, I am contemplating getting a Xoom but I am a bit worried about compatability of some programs.

FPse is working. I dont have my controllers with me to try and map the keys or anything but it loaded the games which is a start

Thanks for testing it for me, even more of a reason for me to buy it now.

Free emulators (n64, snes, genesis, nes, gba, gbc, gg, and atari 2600) until ??

Hi all, I just noticed that slideME market has subject emulators for free until 2 weeks from 29 May, which places today as the last day? but is still showing up free. A few more days for N64oid which is absolutely awesome on gTablet!
https://slideme.org/user/yongzh
BTW, Snes9x EX is always free on the market place and the tiger emulators are also, but these are much better than tiger emulators and NINTENDO 64!!!
After playing around with Snesoid, Snes9x EX has better compatibility.

Got mine! Thanks for the heads up!

Have any of you got Zelda Ocarina of Time working? Mine loads plays for like 5 minutes then resets.

So far I haven't had luck with n64 roms. Conkers bad fur day stops before it gets to the title screen and forsaken didn't even load.
Snes emu works great and I have had the gba emu for about a year. Both work on 100% of roms and play great with my wiimote.

I can't get any of the emulators to work, am I doing something wrong?? I am on Illuminate 1.2.

Thanks for letting me know, I was about to hit the sack too
Sent from my htc incredible

Many things don't work on honeycomb yet, Its still an alpha rom. Couldn't tell you if something is wrong or if its the rom.

Both Zeldas work for me, but I'm on VegaN TAB 5.11 due to its compability with Plants vs Zombies.
Conker's BFD does not load pass "Nintendo".
Forsaken works.

I will try now that I am on CM7 it didn't work on one of the other roms I can't remember which.

Im on CM 7.03 and i can tell you vigalante 8's graphics are all screwy, most of the images don't display, but the game loads. Its the only game I've tried though.

looks like all these emulators were pulled from the market, I already had the lite versions except the N64 one since there was no lite version for it

Great post, thanks for the heads up, I'll check out the snes and N-64. Just looking at it makes me content

Thanks for the heads up! Downloaded.

<3 Thank you very much for the link, this is the ONLY GBA emulator that has worked on gingerbread for me so far
