On screen game controllers - Nexus 7 Accessories

Has anyone tried any of these on screen game controllers on the n7? Thinking of trying them out as I use emulators (nesoid, N64oid) to play games.

I bought 2 of the 2nd link on thinkgeek. I don't like them at all
Alot of the game don't have a predefined in game joystick, it appears wherever you put your fingers, it won't work with that.
So it's not compatible with all the games, it's bulky. If your screen isn't clean, it will slide alot.

Great DS7 Games that are perfect for the tablet!

Hey all. Thought Id start a thread up for all of us to compare notes with and say which games and the onscreen play work very well for the tablet. =)
Aside from emulators which work great. A game I just got to play and it works VERY well! I mean very smooth.

Geometry Wars clone, but plays SUPER good.
Zenonia2 - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gamevil.zenonia2
Very good rpg, plays very nice as well for a 2d style!

Build your evil game empire. The larger tablet screen helps!
Anyone else have some exceptional games to list as well?

Gun Brothers is pretty awesome on the streak 7
Anyone try a PSX, N64, or PS2 emulator, yet? Also, if you all have tried it, does the WiiMote Classic work with dual analog setting? (It always seemed to not register as dual analog on my Droid using Wiimote Controller app.)
I just got done playing yongzh n64 emulator. F-zero X plays well on it. The Analog on screen however is a lil over sensitive and seems to oversteer and so. But it does play for the 1st release of the app. =)
Also I have not tried a controller to android app yet, I should get around to that, what works the best? PS3 or Wiimote controller app.
I just got dungeon defenders. They have a special version for the t2 chip. The graphics are pretty sick

Also in the market is an app by NVIDIA called the TegraZone which features games that are tailored for the T2
Ooooo I just saw that game on steam and wanted it, Awesome I can play it now then. ^^
Samurai II plays very well
Anyone gotten the wiimote app to work with their streak 7? Can't seem to get mine to configure. Says it's recognized and linked. However doesn't do anything.
And a good game that I found thanks to AOTS is Cordy. Free on the marketplace

Yes I have, I was using my classic controller to play Fzero-X. =D Just gotta follow the XDA thread on it to properly set it up. Gotta select in Input options in Settings of the Android menu itself the Wiimote IME and so. Then sync up. Does indeed work.
Btw More games to play.
Flight Control
Dungeon Defenders
Crazy Snowboard
And while not a game per say.
Xbox Live Statistics works GREAT with the Tablet size and interface. =)
Zen Garden is nice!
Splode
Asphalt 6 HD
N.O.V.A. HD
Let Golf 2 HD
Highborn
Bejeweled 2
Spider-Man: Total Mayhem HD

Are you saying you have NOVA on your S7?
I pulled the apk and tried to push it on my S7, when I started the game the gameloft logo came up then it goes black.
Can you tell me how you got it to work?
You need the Attrix version
Can I do that somehow from my S7?

You need a pc and visit gamelofts site and put that as your phone version.
I must say, every game in the Tegra Zone app is a must have!

Does the analog work for the Wiimote Classic controller? I purchased one just for this, but I haven't gotten a Streak 7, yet (waiting for my Verizon contract to expire).

Any games that can use phone as controller like crazy snowboard?

Does anyone know of any other games with the same feature? I really like being able to use my evo as the controller while playing on my tabs screen. Very cool indeed.

Got this working with my ps3 controller. Been playing n64 and other emulators on my hdtv. Definitely recommend this to everyone. Brings back great memories playing the old school games like zelda and resident evil. Even busted out sms3 on the nesdoid too. Good times

can you explain how you do that?

Here is my USB / BT Joystick [Video Tutorial]

Hello everyone.
Thought I would post this not sure if any of you are using this, quick overview if you are running gta3 on Xoom and have a spare USB controller / ps3 controller or a windows Xbox control receiver you can use this to control the game..
.
I have searched a few places and no own really knows the configurations so I hooked up my bt keyboard and synced up my Xbox 360 keys
I have attached the file just extract the xml file from the attached rar file and put this on the root of your SD in a folder called USBJoyData open up the program USB/BT JOYSTICK and click impor.
it that's it then play GTA enjoy..
Video Tutorial Below (Apologies for my boring voice)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExOnY0Ek3ho&feature=youtu.be
If you wish to manually setup the buttons please see my config below. The below shows what actions these buttons have on the keyboard.
For instance if you have an XBOX controller if you want to use R2 for accelerate. Scroll to the Number 1 and press R2 this key is now associated with Accelerate
1 - Accelerate
2 - Punch / Shoot
3 - Brake
4 - Enter / Exit Vehicle
5 - Change Radio Station
6 - Change Weapon
7 - Handbrake
ENTER - Start Button
I will try to update this thread as much as possible with new configurations for different games please feel free to send me request..
And please remember to say thanks if this was helpful
Special Thanks to Poke64738 for this amazing application

Yup - root+ sixaxis widget + ps3 controller is the best solution, especially for the amount of buttons the ps3 controller has. However, before I rooted, I got one of these on sale (not cheap otherwise!) and it's amazing for Shadowgun (haven't tried many other games with it however): http://steelseries.com/products/other/steelseries-free-mobile-wireless-controller
Amazing little thing, great feel and I'm surprised by the quality. Also, cross-platform compatibility (Android, iOS and Windows, for example). I had my doubts, but after using it for awhile... wow. Such a small controller should not perform so well!
HOWEVER: keep in mind that Android compatibility is still spotty with controllers, especially if you do not have root. You'll need a game that either explicitly tells you that it is compatible with the controller of your choice (ie. "compatible with Moga controllers" ) OR has some way to map controls manually in the game. I haven't tried your game, so check first. In Shadowgun and NOVA, for example, in game settings you're able to map buttons. So even without root, you can plug a ps3 controller in via the dock's USB port and map away. Or pair the Free controller and you're off.
If you DO have root, I think there might be ways to emulate touch controllers with root and sixaxis, but I haven't tried. Unless someone else can speak to how well this works? Theoretically, this enables you to play games that aren't even designed for controllers.
Hope this helps!
