Games to play when stressed/depressed? - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know, it's a weird ask.. But I get both of the mentioned things a lot. And a lot of the time, if I don't play guitar, I play games. I need good game suggestions that are casual but addictive/distracting to get my mind away. Can be either free or paid for.
Thanks in advance!

Minigore 2 zombies? Pou? Asphalt 8? All these free. But what do you mean what games to play when you are stressed? I play the same games when I'm sad and happy,

i thinks its awesome playing super mario 64 runs great
all my roms skip so maybe a update will fix the hiccups.
I can't even download this from the store with my Nexus S.... apparently my device doesn't support it.
I even tried reverting back to a stock ROM and trying but no dice
It works good on mine as well Mario 64 is perfect and looks great.

ive played both zeldas, super smash bros, and super mario. All with the same problem.
Where do you guys get yours from.
Thnx

I have also found that the more system intensive games tent to crash after extended play.
If you turn the max skip rate up from 2 to 10 the sound plays smooth but the game jumps more.
I presume with more optimization it will become faster and more stable.
What is the control system like. I usually find emulated console games a little bit hard to play with a touchscreen due to a lack of proper haptic feedback and the fact your fingers get in the way of the screen a bit.

Why? IMHO A7 is way better than A6 with excellent multi-player engine. Granted, they weakened drifting very much but if you played more, you would find something else is compensating disadvantages in drifting.
For those who is playing Asphalt 7, my username is master9000. Friend and invitation to multi-player matches are very welcome. :victory:
Hi,
I was on the play store last night and bought this game "asphalt 7" it had nothing about my tab 7.7 not being compatible and so I bought the game.
Thanks to the large download and all, but this game does not work on my tablet, gets as far as checking license and Force Closes....
What have I done wrong????
Why doesnt it work and what do I need to do to get it working, I was trying to do the correct thing and not pirate the game by downloading it...
Well, thank you gameloft for a awesome game I cant play.....yet, and have paid for
EDIT: Ok, I have got it working now....very good on my galaxy tab 7.7....well at least I enjoy it so far
Got it working by downloading it again....try it out, good game if you enjoy arcade style driving......try Real Racing 2 for a more real feel
Downloaded, working and no issues.

[Q] Pokémon Gold deleting save file

Hey,
Since this is off-topic I guess I can ask this question here.
I bought a Pokémon Gold cardridge for my Gameboy Advance yesterday and now I have a problem with the save files: every time I take out the cardrigde, the save file is deleted. I use my Gameboy only for this game right now, so not being able to take it out won't be a problem, but I'd still like to know the cause. As the game does save normally, I don't think the internal battery has died.
Thanks in advance.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
That sounds like a dead battery to me - when you remove the cartridge the SRAM is no longer powered - so while you were able to save while it was powered, the battery is not keeping it powered once it's removed. I would test it and make a save game file, leave it in the GBA and leave it overnight and see what happens.
Pokemon Gold is getting old enough that there's a very good chance the original battery isn't doing so hot any more. I believe that generation of Pokemon especially had battery issues due to the real-time clock.
This is not directly helpful and you may have considered it already, but have you thought about using an emulator to play the game on your phone ?
I did this recently on my S3 and the controls translate well to touch-screen use. The ROMs are very small, too ! The GBC ones are only ~2Mb and GBA are usually 5-10Mb. Transferring my games to my phone was just another way to consolidate and make life simpler / more fun / easier.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I have thought about playing using emulators, but playing it on a Gameboy gives it a way more authentic feeling. I guess I'll have to take it back to the store then .

I never had any problem with my Gameboy Advance, so I guess it's your Gameboy and not the games.

U think so? Cuz i bought newly and the model was old the first gameboy advance without backlight I know i was dumb that time my mom bought it for me as a gift and it used to work great but after a year the problems started occurring. Thought at first it would be feature not supported for this model. Thanks anyway its been 5 years since i bought it so i dont care!
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app
If all games acted weird I think it is your gameboy, yes, because I think it is really strange if all games won't save anymore and the problem is not with the Gameboy itself. And even if you have one of the oldest Gameboys, all functions of the game should work properly.

[Q] Incompatible apps

Apologies for the noobish question, I've searched the forums and googled etc.. and not found the answer to my question...
This is my first Android phone, so I'm still getting my head around how things work - quite a few major apps are not compatible with the XZ, is this just because it's a new phone and apps need to be adjusted to work with new handsets? And if so, how long does it take in general for an app to be made compatible? (eg. Angry Birds Star Wars which is a huge game, isn't compatible, I assume this will change in the near future?)
I know it is possible to download programs to bypass incompatibilities, but I don't want to jailbreak (or whatever you fancy Android types call it) my phone just yet.
Sorry if this is a dumb question/answered somewhere else and I'm being totally blind - please lock the thread if so!

Did not know that, thanks. Is this a general update that needs to be done by Google, or do we have to wait until every developper updates their app to 1080p resolution?

No it's not Google's problem. We will all have to wait for the app to be updated by the developer.
So there is no ETA. I wanted to play NFS Most Wanted but couldn't

hi guy, WECHAT, i tried downloading in both my wife and mine xperia z. It works fine in normal messaging but once voice chatting is involved, the apps sometimes stop responding, and the mic fails. only when turning the speaker on the mic works fine. Need to restart the phone then everything is normal.

You mean the Sony Select app? For some reason that app doens't let you search for apps, so it isn't that useful, unless I'm wrong of course.

NOt sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I don't have such app on my XZ. When I look for it in the Play store, I can find an official PlayStation app, but this just seems to be an info app to promote games for PS2/PSP.
The app "ChatON" is also incompatible it says on google play/store. But thatsnot true, beouse if you downlaod the apk file an dcopyed to the phone then you are able to install it and use it as normal, so strange that its says incompatibel in google's app store. Im now runing the ChatON newest version, I love this app as me and all my friends use it as they have S3 mobiles. Im the first now that have got the sony xperia Z. My first inpresson will come later in a post I can write it in if I find a section to write my first impresion in.
Candy Crush Saga is also listed as incompatible on the Play Store. But if you download and install the apk, it works fine.
