how do I use SNESoid

When I click on my freshly downloaded SNESoid apparently it ask me to which ROM I want to download the games(I guess?) To? What do I do? I'm a decently experienced android user(1yr) but never used a game emulater. Please enlighten me and help.

Game Emulators require ROMs - digital images of the original game cartridge - in order to play the game. When the emulator asks you to pick a ROM, it's the same as inserting the game cartridge into the system!
If you're down with the whole "torrent" scene, just type "SNES ROMs" into your favorite torrent search engine; you'll find gigabytes worth of SNES games. Keep in mind that, legally, you are supposed to *own* the original game to legally play the ROM on an emulator. I doubt many people pay that any heed, however.
Once you've downloaded all the ROMs you desire, just copy them into a folder on your SDCard, and navigate there from the SNESoid menu.

Ah, OK that explains it. Well I was just curious how to get that up and running. Thanks a lot.

Hey ksizzle9,
I read something about using a WiiMote and bluetooth to play games on android phones.
I can't embed a url here so just search "wiimote android" on google.
I haven't tried it myself since I lack a Wii but it just might be really cool if you're playing emulated games. . .hard to play Mario with a touchscreen!
Peace.

I use my Wiimote to play games on nesoid. Just need the wiimote app from the market, and a wiimote of course. It works great.

Well obviously, haha. If you look at the end of the wire, you'll see that the plugs have the rings in the same spots.

not true, I used to have a Nokia N900, the same 3-ting plug, but works nowhere except for the n900.

I think what the op was getting at is the stock music player is coded crappy.

[Q] Anyone get a Wii controller to work on any Captivte ROM?

I am still looking for a way to get the Wii apps to work, has anyone had any luck with any ROM for our phone?

CM7 is a success!
Wow it seems like such a long time coming, that I thought I wouldn't care anymore. But Damn! Its great to have Wii Controller Functionality! I have tried it, and with my classic controller attachment to my wiimote, I like the Free WiimoteController app from the free apps. Took a little work to make the emulators working correctly (tip: check the other settings for the Use Input Method checkbox)
Thank you everyone for keeping up the hope!

Is it possible to use more than one remote for multiplayer action?

multiplayr
I would think so, download an app to get it to work search "Wii controller" in the market

Yeah, most of the wiimote apps have multiple controller functionality

Someone get a way for a ps3 controller to connect. I just like finding multi used for my PlayStation stuff. Already got it as a Bluetooth gamepad for my laptop and I'd like to use it for my phone too!
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App

Agreed. Better button layout options than that damned classic controller

Mind sharing how you got it working? Does it just work with the official KB1 release now (and of course corresponding custom roms?) Or does it still require some changes under the hood?

NO, only CM7 has gotten the right bluetooth to work with the pre-existing apps. No "under the hood" work.

Wont work with anything to do with touch wiz no matter what build u need cyanogen

Only cm7 and miui have the bluetooth files for it. The touch woz files are newer than the ones wii remotes use

Overclock your zoom to 1700mhz. Everything will be smooth.

1.5GHz is far enough... any higher and the heat produced outweighs the performance difference

What is your preference in terms of overclocking...through Tiamat settings or SetCPU? Is one considered to be more effective than the other?

Pairing a PS3 controller?

I have found a few older posts stating that you cannot pair the HTC One with a PS3 controller, but nothing particularly recent. I'm running the Android Revolution ROM that is based on Android 4.2.2. I also have a Wiimote and a Wii U Pro controller: I'd love to use any of the damn things on this device, mainly so I can connect the phone to my TV and play old NES and SNES games. Thanks in advance.

Still haven't seen any info. Anybody know how to do this?

I looked briefly into this about a week ago. Basically, we can't. I think there may be some ROMs out there that support the particular Bluetooth protocol we need, but Stock and AD 4.2.2 do not.

I tried doing this last week. HTC One can't pair with PS3 via BT. I tried it also with Sixaxis... and Sixaxis doesn't work with HTC One.
I did try the Apple Wireless Keyboard and Logitech Bluetooth Mouse on the One and they worked flawlessly.

That was on a sense based rom. CM roms work, I don't know about GE roms.

Thanks folks. Anybody know if a Wii U controller or other Bluetooth controllers will work? Mouse and keyboard are cool, but for old school games I want a controller.
