In the meantime, however, that means that setting up the MOGA controller is a better solution for Android 4.2+ users as we don’t have to deal with using some of the flakier Wiimote control apps in the Play Store. Hopefully the developer is able to iron out the issues with the changes to Android’s interface system soon. The best Android-based Wiimote control app on the market right now has been temporarily disabled by Android 4.2 (it works fine on everything from Android 2.0 to 4.1). Check out each suggested parts list and the accompanying notes to decide what you need.īefore we proceed, there’s an important consideration based on what version of Android you’re running. While we strive to keep costs low for most of our projects, this particular project involves a few minor purchases. If you would like to forge ahead on your own we can suggest looking into the GameKlip to mount your device on the Dualshock controller and the Sixaxis Controller app to link the controller (both wired or wirelessly) to your device. Because support for linking the controller, phones that can do it, and apps that are compatible with the controller are pretty limited, we have opted not to include it in this guide.

Note: If you’re interested in linking a PlayStation Dualshock 3 controller to your Android device, it is possible to do so. If you’re on the fence about which route to take, we’d strongly suggest reading through the whole guide to see the benefits of each option. The second option uses the MOGA gaming controller. The first option uses the Wiimote, a device that many of the millions of Wii owners have laying around. This tutorial outlines two different options for overcoming this obstacle and unleashing the gaming power of that snappy little smartphone you carry around with you everyday. While this might work for turn-based strategy games where the action is slow and you have plenty of time to poke around on the screen, it’s a horrible setup for anything that involves speed as the touch screen buttons are difficult to use and, worse yet, your fingers are blocking part of the screen at all times. The only problem, however, is that outside of one or two niche Android phones designed with gaming in mind (and thus a game pad built right in), you’re left controlling the action with on-screen controls. Modern Android phones are powerful little devices that can play a wide array of new Android-specific games as well as a huge number of emulators which in turn open the door to playing thousands of awesome vintage games.
