I've been playing it for about 30 minutes now, using the wired xbox controller makes it SO much better vs trying to tilt the xoom to go where I want.

Go to Google and type in Slideme. Download that market (you don't need to sign up to download apps). I ended up picking up Gensoid, Gameboid, GBCoid, Snesoid, Gearoid and another one for free. The dev who makes those apps is yongzh.
I have all of them. Hopefully that helps.

Recommendations for best game controller for nexus 7?

Since this is my first tablet i want to get a good game controller, any recommendations? I dont know if the sixxaxis app will work on this with my ps3 controller but it should since it has bluetooth. Tegra zone says u can use a wired 360 controller on there games but i dont know if it will work on the nexus 7? So any ideas would be great. Ty very much

You could buy an Onlive controller and play PC games on it . I don't know if that works with the Tegra Zone games though..

SixAxis controllers pair natively with my Transformer Prime (just have to turn the controller on, and search for bluetooth devices from the tablet).
Works with pretty much any app or emulator, especially if the app allows you to remap the keys to your liking. Can't see why the Nexus 7 would be any different...

Im using a sixaxis its ok but i gotta use the cable with my iconia a500, Nyko playpad is out soon thats the offical tegra game pad.

Wait. Is it possible for me to play COD on the N7 using a PS3 controller?

Can't you play CoD with OnLive, streaming via the app and controller?

Ah... You guys got me excited there.

I would hold off on buying a Sixaxis controller until the dev of the sixaxis app gives the 'go' for jellybean

Any game that works with the 360 controller can work with the OnLive controller. All you have to do is fool the OS into thinking the OnLive controller is actually a 360 controller, details outlined in this thread.

It will be soon....
Lucid Logix are gearing up for their own version of onlive that you can run on your home PC and stream your own games to your laptops/devices (android included). There were demos at the last CES showing 1 PC with 1 Graphics card streaming 3 different games to 3 different devices simultaneously
http://www.lucidlogix.com/technology-cloud.html
makes sense to me, why pay for online to play games you already own for your pc.
As a stand in at the moment you could try "splash top"

Ditto
I agree that the OnLive Controller is the best option, right now. If you are willing to wait, Nyko has a great controller http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/5/3066853/nykos-playpad-android-controllers-free-fighter-ps3-hands-on,

SIxaxis updated yesterday to bring Jelly Bean support. PS3 controller is the best controller because of touch emulation and Sixaxis controller, but requires Root.

Nyko PlayPad and PlayPad Pro hands down. They're not out yet, coming out this fall/winter. and no price, but it fully supports the tegra 3 and works without root.
In addition, you can even REBIND TOUCH CONTROLS to the controller. That sold me right there.
The PlayPad (not pro) also includes a case and stand for your tablet/phone.

Ah, I missed that. Tegra-exclusivity likely makes these a waste of time for many (definitely me).

It is designed and compatable with all Tegra3 games but it does NOT require the tegra.
It's requirements are only any android device running 3.0+ and bluetooth. It does NOT require the Tegra3 but it is built and designed to instantly work with Tegra3 games, other games and other hardware may require manual setup (you can also download setups through their app)

[Q] How to spoof my device for Amazon's Appstore?

I'm looking to download Kindle-only apps for my Nexus 4 from the Amazon App Store, especially GTA: San Andreas which I have bought. Of course when my Nexus 4 isn't supported, I need to spoof my device somehow so it would look like a Kindle from Amazon's perspective.
I have tried editing my build.prop to match both Kindle Fire HD and Kindle Fire HDX but that didn't fool Amazon. I also tried to fake my GPU & CPU information for Appstore using GLTools v1.07 (graphics optimizer) 03/06/2014 with no results.
Do you guys have any information how Amazon determines your device type? Or could somebody of you upload the .apk for GTA: San Andreas (it is under 100MB, just an installer)? I have a license for it, so the downloader would work

I am also looking for the answer of the same question.
Yes, appstore downloaded apk would be great since we have a licensed (but undownloadable) copy

I'd like to know this too. I was able to get GTA3 to work on my S3 a long time ago but I can't do the same for GTA:SA. In the meantime, I found this on Amazon:

[Q] UMS on Kindle Fire HD

I was wondering if it was possible to use ums on the kindle fire hd, so I can use it on my gaming consoles, apparently it needs a kernel.

No, nothing has been able to make this happen yet. There has been some talk about it from time to time but no dice yet on the KFHD and beyond series. I think the original Kindle Fire can with a cord setup though.

Fire tablet VS Controllers

Hello!!! I can't get my fire HD 8" 2017 to work with my PS4 controller nor a Xbox one controller either. Tried Bluetooth and OTG... With Bluetooth it says it syncs, but the controller doesn't do anything. With the OTG cable, it doesn't even connect. Anybody has an idea of what is going on? Is there something I'm missing? Any workarounds? Is this issue only on the Fire 8?

I don't know if it works since I don't have a ps4 controller

Thanks, but that doesn't work. It is the first thing i tried. The tablet says the controller is synced, but it doesn't do anything. You try to move with the d-pad or joystick, push any buttons, nothing happens.

Game controllers and Amazon devices (FireOS in particular) rarely play nice. Been at this since 2nd gen HD 2012. You *may* get it to work - probably not.

Hello Davey! I've had plenty of help from u before.
Do you know why is that? They work perfect with android.
There's videos on YouTube of ppl syncing them with the Fire tablet as well.
In any case, do you know any alternative for the awful on screen controls. Im trying to use retroarch, so my kid can play old Mario games. He's in love with them.

Sorry but it looks like your stuck. You can't dowgrade to a fermware that can root. Try finding a generic controler or find one that says It's spports Android. Here's a form about the moga gamepad

While based loosely on Android FireOS is heavily modified to suit Amazon's intentions for this device which most certainly does not included gaming on competitor's hardware. Amazon chose not to support certain Android capabilities which likely includes generic gaming controller support. Best guidance if using Amazon gizmos is to follow YouTube vids if someone else has figured out his to do it. Otherwise consider a different device that runs generic Android.
