Why don't these TOSEC roms run in my Android emulators? Yes, I've unzipped them.

Also, Android emulation general.

Just use no intro for everything and use a header injector for the nes roms.

Been playing Kyuukaku Megami Tensei on my phone recently. Good times.

I don't use it much, but I bought pic related. I don't like the stick d-pad thing, and the angle locks a little sharper than I would like, but for $10 or whatever I can't complain. Probably going to upgrade to one of them with a proper 360-style layout to play PS1 games better.

The moga power controllers are way better. I use a power hero, it's very compact. It fits in my pocket perfectly, charges your phone and gets great battery life.

Samsung are assholes and blocked Dualshock entirely in the S7 Edge. Redering the clamp and gamepad I used to use with my Sony phone entirely useless.

My solution was to buy a shitty, wired DS3 knockoff. Solder an OTG wire to it's PCB. Toss in the springs, pads, and buttons from a broken DS2.

It's messy, true. But it's mine. I made a gamepad for my phone in a cave, with scraps!

LOL, check out the Iron Man of the S7.

The Shield is great because of its battery life, its control mapping system (remarkable, and it works!) and its awesome ass commitment to being vanilla Android, not some nVidia infused bullshit version. Like Samsung.

I'm often tempted to get some kind of powerful emulation handheld but then remember that my laptop is good enough and I should be playing more games on it.

I'm still waiting for one of these android handhelds to play gamecube/ps2/xbox well. With that i'd be set for life

Are there even Android emulators for these systems? Because if do, I'd bet the Shield Portable can play it. It can handle PSP games and fast forward the damn things to about 10X speed. It's great!

The shield struggles with dreamcast, it really can't do the rest.

On paper it should be fine. I'd wager it's a shortcoming of the emulator, as there's only one and it's still evolving.
