[IDEA] App like Sixaxis Controller for Xperia Play Controls - Xperia Play General

You know this app called Sixaxis controller wich lets you use a PS3 controller to play allmost every touchscreen game? If not here is the market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=de
If someone would make a similar app for the Xperia Play we could play not optimized games... also it could ab touchpad support to every emulator.

im really interested in actually buying an xperia play (i have a g2x now) and i thought of this too! because before buying i wanted to make sure those touch sensitive "analog sticks" would work with the emulator recognizing the input method. but it didnt really make sense since that it would since its not an actual stick. we could message the people who made sixaxis controller.

I texted the Dev od the sixaxis app and he maybe will works on it. I alredy did sometests for so its very promesing.

+1 this would be cool

I have a better idea: use the xper ia play with a pc to use as a pc controller, in order to play call of duty, halo, etc... With xperia play

There is already an app like that called "app.pcon".
It needs a wifi network to function though. Bluetooth got ditched. Analogue (touchpad thing on XPlay) doesn't work but it basically makes your XPlay as a controller for the PC.
Hope this helps.

if you think that is a better ide then your brain must be backwards better means a improvement lol not worse. xperia play controls are crap tbh the sticks are really annoying and i wud prefer K+M over controller for most games on computer especifally COD

Because the maker of DroidMote also made a Xeria PLAY client app, I've been suggesting this in the thread for the past few days (instead of remote controlling another device with an Xperia PLAY, combine the client and remote to support unoptimized titled on the Xperia PLAY).

I hope this happens. Thanks for posting this suggestion - i did not even know that the above app was marrying the touchscreen and physical ps3 controller - i wish it worked with the tablets without requiring root. Sony tablet s works with ps3 controller natively so maybe the developer could make it work for screen mapping too.

[Q] Multiplayer games and wii remotes

I know you can use wii remotes for your roms, just wondering if you can use more than one for other players?
From what I have seen with the wiimote apps on the market they support more than one controller, and I think in the NESoid config I saw player two options.
Test it out for youself

xperia play hardware buttons on screen emulator ?! for onlive gamepad only games

hey guys , is there some application out there that can do such a job ? i own an xperia neo and now starting to regret that i didn't get the play , because i can't play majority of onlive games because most of them needs a gamepad to work , so what if an application could some how emulate the input of the play's gamepad for us (non play users) to actually enjoy onlive service as well , i know nothing like hardware buttons but at least we could get a taste of the 'gamepad' only games on our devices as well
thanks.....

Wiimote via Bluetooth

Is there a way so that you play games that way

There are a few apps in the Play Store, most notably "Wiimote Controller" that will let you use the Wii remote and map the buttons to keyboard buttons.
But this will really only work with emulators as you can create custom controller configurations.

From Ouya to Mojo

Wanted to start with saying that i've been using Ouya from all my retro needs from 6 months now, the main use for the ouya has been the Xbmc support but i occasionally play FPse, MUPEN and GSNES. I was even brave enough to try the gamestick for a week before returning it to gamestop and using the credit to purchase addiontional Ouya. Recently purchased a mojo and was really looking forward to finding out if the ps1 games would run quicker, if xbmc would run smoother when im jumping around a movie looking for favorite scenes (i use 1080p DTS files that are 10GB+ not those low bitrate YIFY files) and thought it would be awesome if i could finally connect more than one ps3 controller and even an Xbox 360 controller. A huge downfall and prehaps a dealbreaker has been the navigation soft keys that appear in most of my applications, i know this isnt completely mojos fault (i blame you google) but im really hoping they release 4.4 kitkat real soon which adds immersive mode and hides the navigation soft keys when a game or movie thats using full screen. its extremely annoying that the navigation soft keys appear when im trying to watch a 1080p movie using XBMC v13 beta1/beta2, i even went as far as to install the Ouya version of xbmc hoping that would work but it didnt. I found two applications that can hide the navigation soft keys like GMD AutoHide and full!screen but both require root, i will root my device once my usb a to a cable arrives but i feel its insane that i need to root my device just so i can hide some keys that shouldnt be there to begin with (seriously madcatz why did you need those keys visible when the controler had home and back keys). if the experience doesnt improve by using one of those two apps than im going to return the Mojo. Please reply if you have any suggestions that wouldnt require rooting my device to remove the navigation keys.

I use MX Player Pro, it's in the start up wizard http://mojo.madcatz.com/index2.html
It hides the soft keys when not moving the controller.

Thanks for the suggestion but I should have added that all my content is on a synology 1812+ so I can't simply connect it through USB. I guess I could setup a nas connection using ez file manager and have MX player play the files but that is a ridiculous way to play movies. I wanted this box to replace my living room ouya but so far its looking like this box is going back to Amazon.
Rooted the mojo makes the console way better. So I would definitely do that.
I also came from the ouya and honestly would have stuck with it if wasn't for the fact of no play store. I like the mojo since it's basically android and can customize it it to my liking.
Anyway I would highly recommend rooting the mojo and using the play store mod. Then use that app to hide what you want and enjoy just how better the mojo is.

It's odd that xbmc doesn't have a setting for making movies full screen. The Netflix app, Hulu+ app, and quite a few others I use regularly occupy the entire screen during play back.

I read that some applications, mostly the ones you named used tricks to achieve becoming full screen apps.

The ouya can obtain the play store once you root it, guess its similar to the mojo that modifying is required before making the device worthwhile.

Android App BT Controller

Really missing an Android App that can control the FTV like a controller. I use one to control my TV, DVR, etc... works pretty good. Not as good as the actual controller, but when someone walks off with it, I can do it from my phone.
Seems this would not be hard to do with a BT app on the phone to mimic the controller, provide keyboard input etc...

It certainly seems doable. Maybe Amazon will release something like this in their app store.
I mean XBMC has a remote app and it works well with XBMC and FireTV.
And i have seen games (like bombsquad) which have controller apps that are mostly usable for gameplay.
