My first application made for Android. This one lets you connect a Wii controller with Android and then use it to play games. This is still Alpha so it may or may not work on your Android device. The app is published here: android.ccpcreations.com (now 0.3 Beta)

@23149008796185 Hi. Please see the video description, find the embedded link, go there, read everything (especially the FAQ section) and finally go to a link about “supported and unsupported devices” and see if your device is listed there or not.
@pikipirs If you use The Sense UI. It won’t work, that’s also my problem, hope they fix it.
seriously? this is way neat! strong work good sir/madam
GEez i want this so much but dont work on htc desire, think it is the htc sense
FIX IT ANDROID!

(thunmb up
can anybody tell me wich button you press in the android keyboard when you press each button in the wiimote? (except the d-pad)
PD: excuse my bad english
@gamerk3vin The mappings are all configurable through the app’s settings. Almost every common button is possible. In the app, go to Preferences->Mapping options->Edit mapping sets->Mapping set 1 and there you see all your current mappings for the first wiimote and a potential nunchuck (Hint: select the option to see which key is currently selected).
@pikipirs but if i want to press the button 1 on the wiimote, which one should i press on the keyboard when the gameboid emulator asks for it? (same thing with the button 2 of the wiimote)
@pikipirs @pikipirs but if i want to press the button 1 on the wiimote, which one should i press on the keyboard when the gameboid emulator asks for it? (same thing with the button 2 of the wiimote)
@gamerk3vin Why don’t you just press the button on the wiimote when gameboid asks for it? It should work. Make sure you have WiimoteControllerIME selected, and enable the gameboid’s option to use 3rg party input methods. But to answer your question, 1, 2, A, B, +, -, Home are mapped to “1″, “2″, “Dpad-center”, “Back”, “P”, “M” and “H” respectively.
cant work on desire?
@TOR1127 Nope. Not unless you root and flash a custom non-SenseUI android version of the ROM.
opps. lots of htc users are waiting..
I love this idea but we have got to get it working on the HTC Incredible! Let me know if I can help.
u made this?.. is there one for a playstation controller? it should work since playstation 3 also have a sync-able controller
@T1ger8oi Yes
PS3 controllers are proving difficult because they don’t like to be hailed by anyone, they insist to make the first contact. And the phone doesn’t want to accept unknown connections either (a security feature). For the phone to accept, they would have to be paired first, but the PS3 controller doesn’t support that either (in a traditional wireless way at least). Long story short: they reject each other.
Ill have to give this a shot on my CM6 nexus, alright have wiimote input on my ipad which is great for SNES lets see how this fairs
@pikipirs is there other companies that make ps3 controllers? like Nyko that makes wii controllers. would be pretty awesome to be able to use a playstation controller and play ps1 emulator games, or hopefully n64 games. plus being able to hook your phone to a tv, itll be like your mini gaming system. haha.
@T1ger8oi I’m not aware of any. Nyko’s controllers don’t work with this app. If you want a wireless classic controller, you should google for “Datel Retro Wireless Controller”. Those are like classic controllers for the wii, but don’t require wiimotes, and they work with this app (as long as the app works! I’m saying this because the app doesn’t work on HTC phones and some newer Samsung phones, so check this by following directions on the home page, no wiimote is required to check).
@pikipirs thanks for the infos. and im actually planning on getting the new samsung epic 4g, so hearing that it might not work for samsung…. that suksssss. i guess ill wait and find out when i get the phone.
does the work on samsung moment?
@fowskate No, it doesn’t. At least not until Cyanogenmod will get ported to it.
@pikipirs can u explain that to me
So i have used this on nesoid perfectly but when i try to use it on gensoid, it ignores the wiimote’s buttons when i try to change the button config.
Btw, using a Droid X
@mojibro This shoudn’t happen as both emulators have identical user interfaces. Try to first make it so that it works in nesoid and then go directly to gensoid (without disconnecting or anything) and try it there. Don’t forget to enable the “Use input method” option.
@pikipirs i found out its my own fault derp. i was using an older version of gensoid that didnt have the “use input method”. i updated and it works
