Just received my Tomee USB controller and it ROCKS, no issues when plugging it in. The prime auto recognized. I have been playing SNES games all morning! This controller is good quality and feels just like the original. Works with NES and SNES emulators. The NES USB controller I bought still doesn't work on my Prime even though USB/BT Joystick test app sees it and shows all button presses. The NES Emu App developer is looking into it as I type this. Classic Gaming Portable is great!
That looks great! I use an XBOX 360 controller but for many games (including SNES emulators) certain buttons act as the 'home' button and quit out of the application. Is there any issues like that for the Tomee USB controller?

No issues at all. Works on both of roberts emulators (nes market app and snes free from his website). Is your 360 controller wired?
Yes it is wired. Thanks for the input though, I may look into getting one of those controllers
I have an new controller I purchased from urban outfitters a while back. Don't exactly remember what brand but it works perfect with every emulator I've tried it with.

Curious if anyone knows about hooking up a wired, usb controller to the TF while docked. I already own the wired gaming controllers that I use on my laptop for SNES roms, but wanted to use it on the transformer while I'm out.
android 3.1 supports the xbox and ps3 wire controllers...and i'm guessing other standard (meaning they work without custom drivers) gamepads.
i test an old PC gamepad i had, and it only partially worked. (some buttons aren't recognized, or recognized weirdly)
eitherway, it's trial and error.
but officially, Android 3.1 supports, at the very least, the xbox and ps3 controllers.
I can confirm ps3 controller works

Will give it a try
Sweet, well i have an older gamepad that once I get the TF I will give it a shot, worst comes to worst will just pick up an xbox controller and call it good
The Xbox 360 USB controller does not work with this tablet.
Are you using an actual USB 360 controller or a 360 controller with the charge and play cable? The charge and play cable does not transmit data, it only charges, so you would have to have the 360 controller synced through blue tooth to make it work that way.
I got one of these docks today so I can confirm that the following controllers work with the dock:
PS3 dual shock
Logitech Cordless Precision PS3 controller (Wireless!)
Mayflash Classic Controller USB adapter (this one surprised me)
HOWEVER!
I was unable to get any of the emulators to register the right analog stick, which for most emulators is not a big deal, but still not as good I think as just using a wii remote with a classic controller which seems to work for all the buttons and sticks and things.
Also, I was unable to get 2 usb gamepads to be recognized independently (i.e. as player 1 and player 2) so for me this is not good either. I am now selling the dock on ebay because the only plus for me was being able to have 2 wireless USB gamepads that are not tethered to something else (wii remote) and be able to play 2 player games. Otherwise this dock just makes my transformer less portable. I'm sure for some people it's great though, I'm not knocking it, it just wasn't suited for what I wanted.
Anyone try it with a Logitech gamepad (usb)?

Yes, I'm using an actual USB Xbox 360 controller not the wireless controller with the charge and play cable. This is an issue that if you search the forums you'll find others who have the same problem. I had emailed Asus more than a month ago about the issue and they finally responded and said:
Dear Valued Customer,
For the problem, currently TF101's dock does not support xbox 360 controller.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Wish you have a nice day.

And when I asked if it will be supported in the future:

The wireless gamepad I tried was Logitech, so I would imagine that this would work as well. I have a couple of older model Logitech gamepads I can test later on if I get around to it.
I really am disappointed though in the fact that android 3.1 does not seem to distinguish between 2 different gamepads plugged in at the same time. I tried setting up a 2 player game of Contra by mapping buttons for player 1 and player 2 on each respective pad, but both gamepads controlled both characters at the same time. So it's fine for single player, but any kind of multiplayer is no go.
I take it back. It is something they are looking to resolve:
The next firmware update will support xbox 360 controller and the firmware will be released soon.

Thanks so much for the info! But would you be so kind as to check with the older model Logitech gamepads (with usb)? I'm looking to buy the one that I linked you earlier and this would definitely be a deal breaker if it didn't work.
I bought the Logitech F310-controller. It works fine with N64oid and ok with Reckless Racing & Getaway.
However, even though I select gamepad as control method I can not get Shine Runner nor Air Attack HD working. Do these games work for other people or do these games require a PS3-controller?
I bought the logitech F510. In Riptide GP works fine, but 3D games, like Shadowgun, cannot be played, because right analog doesn´t work correctly. I try Kernel module pack V4 from this forum, but it not help me. I think it was a mistake bought this gamepad. Perhaps I will go buy PS3 controller...
Dumb question but do you need the dock for this to work? I bought it thinking I can just pair with the Bluetooth.

Yes, you need the dock to plug it in via usb. Unless of course you have an OTG USB adapter, in which case you would plug it into that.
I briefly had the F710 before I returned it and bought an excellent condition used-PS3 dualshock 3 from Gamestop. The only game I attempted to play was Grand Theft Auto III, and it worked perfectly fine for that. I much prefer the Sixaxis method though because you create touch profiles for games that don't support controllers.
EDIT: Should note that the Logitech F310/510/710 series controllers are all well made, but not nearly as comfortable to use as a PS3 controller (which itself is one step below a 360 controller imo). However, you can use them with a PC relatively easier than you can a Sixaxis.
I couldnt connect F710 to S3, is there a special way to do it?
I can't connect F510 to S3
Someone use F510 on S3?

How is the PS3 controller working for you? I have the 710, and it seems like it works about half the time. I am now running CM10, and it worked better with that than any other rom until the latest nightly. I would love something more reliable and consistent. Would you still recommend the PS3 controller and Sixaxis?
I have the Sony Dualshock 3 Sixaxis and works perfect via Usb Otg and wireless with Sixaxis App!
I have and the Logitech F510 that it's a perfect gamepad for pc gaming and very durable!!
But my Samsung Note 3 Neo (Kitkat Root) can't see it...
Anyone know of a good game controller? I would prefer one that plugged into the usb port, but anything has to be better than trying to play NES games with the touch screen as a controller.

I'd love a bluetooth one.
Well through searching I was able to get my wireless PS3 controller working. It'll do. Would like a smaller attachment one, but it does the trick. Here's how if anyone is interested...

In fact, PS3 WII and XBOX 360(guides to how are on the bottom) controllers all work on the android, as do most USB controllers that you use with the PC.

havent really looked into it much, but i think you need some sort of USB adapter for the 360 controllers.
MS decided to use actual wireless technology instead of bluetooth. so you need a USB wireless adapter for it to work i believe.
best bet is to buy a used PS3 controller as that uses bluetooth to connect.
Or you could get the keyboard dock, it has a usb port... I use it with a 360 controller to play games all the time.

Thank you i'll testing.and What games have you tested with x360 controller ?
Any game in the market place that says "controller" is good to go. As well as any emulator that has a controller input function... so all of them basically.
Hey all, I am still pretty new to my p5113 10.1 GT2 and wondering if there are any good game controllers for the tab... or if I got a adapter cable could I hook up like an Xbox 360 controller like the Galaxy S3 phone... any help is appreciated.

I use a Logitech F710 with a short OTG cable, works great, there's a switch on the front of it, must be set to "D" to work properly. Using it for GTA3 and Asphalt 7.
PS3 controller via bluetooth here as well
Just like my Galaxy S2 it looks like Samsung is STILL using their proprietary bluetooth stack because my Wiimotes dont work with my Tab 2. Wiimote Connect always asks me for a PIN. Might have to give in and just get a PS3 controller.

Hello
I have a problem, when i plug in to my Tab 2 a gamepad i see " connected USB device with high performance" and bottom "can not get access to the device" (message translated from Polish), and USB/BT Joystick Center test app dont see a usb gamepad. I dont know what i to do. I dont want root my tablet but i want play with controler. Please help and sorry for my poor english
I forgot i use USB OTG adapter.
I see that no one knows the answer to my question. So let us differently. Message about high power, tell i think says that game pad take to much elctric power, so i have another question if i connect bluetooth gamepad with USB dongle then will take less power? And if so, that my tablet and USB / BT Joystick Center app willbe work with this set? Maybe someone tried?
Im talking about normal bluetooth PC gamepad.

Here's a fun fact. I was playing shadowgun deadzone for a few hours on my galaxy tab 2 10.1 WiFi only non root FULLY CHARGED .
Now I stopped playing
BATTERY IS AT 40% or so, unplugged the ps3 controller , did bit of web browsing for bout 20 mins
Then left my tab.
Came back battery is at 38% NOW.
So plugged in the ps3 controller to play shadowgun deadzone again
AND now it's saying 'connected device is too high power consumption!'
Go figure...
So charged it to full.
Plugged ps3 again now Works.
So looks like at a certain % it didn't accept ' high powered devices' like the ps3 controller.
I don't know what the % limit is until it says ' high powered device Bla Bla'
But I'd think it's around 50-40%
Thought I'd let people know

Want to add to save others time and trouble. You can use a ps3 controller. But it HAS to be a genuine Sony controller. If you dont have one, they are expensive. Use the app sixaxis compatibility and its sister app, sixaxis controller, to make it work.
If you dont have a ps3 controller, the gamestop controller that acam mentioned above is supposed to be really good. My local Gamestop wanted $30. Since i'm cheap, i bought the Red Samurai V2 controller from gamestop ($25). I love it! It looks great, works great and feels great in the hands. Played Shadowgun Deadzone no problem with it. I'm going to try and pair it with my desktop pc and see how it works.
