[Q] N64 Emulation - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hi everyone.
On my Note 2, I have NES, SNES, N64, and PS1 working very smoothly. On my new Nexus 7 (2nd generation), I haven't been able to get N64 working smoothly.
Does anyone have a 64 emulator installed on your new Nexus 7? If so, which one do you use and did you make any configuration changes?
Thanks!

Mupen64 works great for me, no config changes needed.

N64 shouldn't be a problem.
Although I've never found one to play HydroThunder.

Thanks for the help! I was able to get Mario Kart working much better. I did notice that the games play much better on the tablet, compared to when I use HDMI out. When I use the Slimport adapter and try to play on the TV, it is a little bit more laggier. And that is the case with the entire tablet, not just emulated games. Anyone run into that issue?
I got the Nexus 7 so I could use two six axis controllers and play all the old games on a TV... but for some reason, the Note 2 handles games better.

The app is better optimized for Mali gpu that's why

look for an app that lets you turn your screen off while in slimport I know there is one around, it might help might not

Personally, I happened to try superN64 playing smash bros, and for what its worth, I think the older N64oid app just functions better.

[Q] Has Anyone Tried FPse Yet?

Has anyone tried the new PS1 emu yet? The word generally is that it is miles ahead of psx4droid, however i dont have a G2/desire z yet. Im looking at getting this phone as my next purchase.
Yes, ofcourse. It is way much better than psx4droid! There is a thread on xda discussing FPse!
trust me its a hell lot better than psx, fpse is so much cooler and it runs a lot smoother than psx

The word would be correct. Just don't confuse savestates with loadstates. That made me lose about 4 hours of FFVII when I was drunk. Its badass though. I went online and found a FFVII savegame and put it on my SD, fpse read it just fine and I was back in business.

Was using it back in my WinMo days, now I'm using it on the DZ and I love it, the hardware keyboard makes all the difference.
Runs nice and smooth (I play without sound, though, personal preference).
FPSE is ok. a lot of the games that work on psx4droid, dont on FPSE, which can get quite annoying.
But the frame rate and the over all smoothness is better on FPSE.
AND if you get sixaxis pair tool from the market, you can play the games with a ps3 controller (FPSE)! The controller doesnt work however on psx4droid.
(Just a little input)

[GAMES] Nexus 7 Gaming Thread

Figured since some of us already have their N7's and most will be receiving their toys in the next week, we can start discussing gaming!
Holding the tablet itself, i can tell this is going to be a comfortable gaming experience, i think the bezels are just right and the weight is great for extended holding periods.
What games are you planning on trying out first?
What are some games that you want to recommend?
What are some games that you are looking forward to?
We can also discuss game compatibility, game controller solutions (wireless and wired), and other :highfive:
____________________________________
Compatible Emulators:
FPse for Android - PSX
N64oid - N64
Gameboid - Gameboy Advance
Gensoid - Sega Genesis
SNesoid - Super Nintendo
Nesoid - Nintendo
& most others
I know the first game that I will be installing and playing is Dead Trigger. It's got zombies and stuff... 'nuff said.
I currently have FF3 on my I/O but will add ME;I & Shadowgun THD when I get my 16GB.
Watching them demo Horn during the keynote was very impressive. Unfortunately it's not currently available and I can't find any information as to when it will be

I came close to finishing it but restarted the game after I found a cheat for it. Now that I have unlimited money, it isn't as fun anymore. It didn't take long to get near the end.

I want FF3 so bad but can't justify the price.. yet! haha
I'm going to install 4 games first, in this order... GTA 3, Max Payne, Dead Trigger, and The Amazing Spiderman!
Horn, the game that was unveiled at the I/O looked so cool, really looking forward to that!
The very first thing i wanted to do when I got home with my Nexus 7 was download and play NOVA 3, and of course it crashes every time at startup. So disappointed. Knowing Gameloft it will be months before they make it Tegra 3 compatible.
dead trigger and heroes call, cant wait! got my wired 360 controller and a ps3 controller so i have choices.lol
GTA runs great compared to on my Gnex. Max Payne took awhile to download but runs great!
I want to test out a PSX emulator and an N64 emulator sometime tomorrow!

+1 on this. Cool thread. Can't wait to start trying some tegra 3 games. I'm into rpgs and fps. Been playing max Payne on my evo LTE and its damn good. Wanna try on n7. From past experience with xoom, fpse looks to pixelated on tablets but I'm sure ill try it. Runs great on my phone tho for both ff7 and ff9.

N64oid and FPSE, I wish i had a Wii controller to use over bluetooth.
For FPSE i tested Diablo, THPS2, THPS4, Spiderman 2, Dave Mirra, Spyro, Tekken 3, and Gran Turismo 2 (crashed)
For N64oid i tested Starfox 64, Mario Kart 64, and Super Smash Bros.
Anyone know if there is a way of using a wireless Xbox 360 controller on the N7? I have the wireless receiver thing and I'd like to use my controller if I can, but I don't really want to buy a wired 360 controller just for my tablet when I already have wireless ones sitting here.

Yeah I didn't think so. Oh well, I'm quite happy playing Starfox 64 on this thing so that'll do for now
I wanted to buy Machinarium with the Google Play credit but it's not compatible with the N7 yet :/
Just paired my PS3 controller via Bluetooth through Sixaxis Controller. Works like a charm, i might put together a quick guide how to do it.
Made a custom mapping profile for GTA 3 and planning on making one for all major games specifically for the Nexus 7
I'll upload them here of course :good:

Games on the GNII.

Just started playing minecraft and GTA 3. Amazing processor speed . I wasn't much of a gamer on the SG2 ... but this phone has changed it for me. Any suggestions for good games to play that will take advantage of the quadcore processor and 5.5 inch super amoled?!

Im going to recommend Rayman Jungle Run, It doesn't necessary take avantage of the quad core processor but it just simply looks great and sounds phenomenal.

I've been playing Final Fantasy 3 on mine. Not the best quality graphics but still fun. Found a game earlier called Dead Trigger and its definitely an intense game that runs well on our device. They said it has optimizations for tegra 3 but on the highest quality settings I found no stutter or lag.
lets keep this thread going..i wasnt a gamer on my previous phones due to battery life but on the note i am playing games so lets keep this thread alive !!
Fifa12 runs really well on it. Xplane and F-Sim space shuttle are amazing. Has anyone noticed how sensitive the accelerometer is?

Personally game wise I would suggest playing with some emulators. FPSE on the market is an awesome PSX emulator. Also if you go onto slideme market you can find n64oid which runs a treat on the note 2.

Some emulators bring their own methods for acquiring roms, others you have to get them from a third party source. I prefer the latter, they are easier to find and more accessible

Just to cool your expectations, you will not really be able to play games using the HDMI out I thought I would do the same. The video out is a processed clone, though, meaning 1/3rd to 1/2 second delay before it gets to your TV (plus whatever your TV settings add). Requires you to turn off overscan as well. Also, it forces an upscale to 1080p 30. Aside from not being very smooth this scaling slows the device a lot; games that run flawlessly without HDMI connected turn into slideshows even on the device. All said and done, it is cool for watching movies but not for much else, even browsing is painfully unresponsive.
I saw a video of NOVA3 and that looked really good. Ive played Dead Trigger as well. Black Ops Zombies is out on Android too. Then of course Plants vs Zombies and Peggle are always great.
Love wargames and ski safari
I wasn't much of a gamer on my Nexus S 4G, but as with most people, this phone's changed that for me. I've been playing Final Fantasy 3 the most, followed by a few simple games like Cut the Rope and Dice with Friends, then of course there's the emulators. I find it incredibly ironic that I can use FPse on this phone to play Spyro better than I could play it on the Playstation Vita(considering Spyro STILL hasn't been released)
FPse runs like a dream on this thing, same with n64oid. Last time I really messed around with emulators was back when I first got my NS4G, they've come quite a way since then. I'm still not too keen on using the on screen keys, but I bought an iControlPad 2 off Kickstarter, so hopefully they'll have those built soon and I'll be able to use that.
I found that a few games don't seem to work with the GN2, 3 that come to mind are Plants vs Zombies, Peggle, and Asphalt 6. I just upgraded from Asphalt 6 to 7 in order to solve that problem, but it's unfortunate that PvZ and Peggle don't work...

How do PvZ and Peggle not work??? Are they completely incompatible? Or do they just look really stretched?
I highly recommend the bards tale. It was a huge hit on the xbox but I never had one. You owe it to yourself to try this game. At 2.99 this game is a steal.
Also since it isn't a fps the tv out might work better. I don't have a cable or dock yet so I haven't tried it.

Got a chance to play Shadowgun on my 70" TV with PS3 controller tethered. There is virtually NO lag whatsoever. Not sure where you get you specs for video out or what type of MHL adapter you are using. You may have alot of TV post processing turned on.
I bought a generic MHL for $10 on ebay and it works fine. But DO NOT buy the claimed OEM adapter on ebay that is in a samsung branded box and have a sticker taped on for the model. The fake adapter even says SAMSUNG on it but is counterfeit. Got my $15 back on that through buyer protection.
Here is a short clip of me playing.

Working emulators?

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone could direct me to some working emulators for the nexus 7. The ones in the gaming thread don't seem to be working.
The primary one I'm looking for is n64 but any help would be appreciated.

SuperN64 (N64 Emulator) is what you're looking for
Just watch out it sometimes prompts you to download applications, so make sure you read all the pop up windows. Otherwise compatibility and smoothness are awesome! Overall good emulator
Use My Boy! Free - GBA Emulator for gbc/gba. You will need to find the bios for this though.

PSX:
epsxe (Tried only Tekken 3 and it's perfect).
NDS:
NDS4Droid (Around 30-50% speed but I'd say good compatibility).
DSoid (Less compatible but with some games emulated up to 80-90% speed. Games like FF XII Revenant Wings and Fire Emblem don't work correctly).
SNES:
SuperGNES
Snesoid (No more available on market)
PSP:
PPSSPP (No other alternatives but to be an early version it's IMHO very good).

I just started playing with SuperGNES. It is a very well made emulator. Downloads coverart and lots of neat features. Scans your storage automatically. Very easy to use. Probably the best emulator I've ever used.
I also do PSX using FPse but it is a crap shoot. Games play great mostly but the interface is clumsy and require lots of tweaking each time. Some settings don't seem to want to stick after a restart. OpenGL plugin makes games look very good though. I'm currently mid way through FF7. Games play full speed in normal mode and a about 40-60fps using OpenGL.
Those really are my two consoles I really like to emulate.
I also use a Moga controller. I also have a PSx tethered (4.2.1 screwed up sixaxis wireless support afaik).

Way to go guys, you just recommended the same exact emulator, but one is riddled with adware and downloads, not to mention the author probably stole the source code and is profiting off of it without the permission of the guy who actually ported it. (Paul Lamb, paulscode.com and author of Mupen64plus) Also, Mupen64 Plus is NOT outdated. He simply hasn't pushed the latest updates to the Play Store yet. Version 2.0 is coming out soon with multiplayer support (Multiple controllers on one device) and a nice cheat system. You can try some bleeding edge builds here. - http://www.paulscode.com/forum/index.php?topic=723.0
Plays great and the interface is much better. Please don't support those assholes who take other people's work for a quick buck.
Yup, there are recent builds of mupen64 - ad free and fully open source. I'd say the games run almost as well as n64oid, but I like it better because of its great gamepad support.

[Q] How does the new N7 perform with emulators?

I am thinking about getting the Nexus 7 coming from the iPad mini. I have quite a collection of games and was particularly wondering if the new Nexus performs well with that PPSSPP emulator? Will I be happy with the performance for a lot of games or is the Nexus too slow?
I've been using drastic ds on mine for ds games and they are running without any hitches. Not tried any psp games on it yet though.

Some games run perfectly (Corpse Party, VC 2, Patapoon), but most are still kinda slow (Crisis Core, Fate/Extra, Dangaronpa framebuffered to CPU, etc.). PPSSPP still have a long way to go it seems, or the Nexus 7 2013 simply isn´t powerful enough.
But Drastic DS is perfect for every single DS game I´ve tried so far.

I am thinking about getting the Nexus 7 coming from the iPad mini. I have quite a collection of games and was particularly wondering if the new Nexus performs well with that PPSSPP emulator? Will I be happy with the performance for a lot of games or is the Nexus too slow?

I can vouch that the PSX, Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 emulators work great!! Especially the Playstation. There are a few games that dont work correctly on the 64 (Perfect Dark), but both Zelda games and Super Mario 64 work flawlessly.
