Wireless Controller Questions (Looking for the best, Onlive?)

[JohnnyPhantom]

Hi Everyone!

I'm new to my first Android Phone, after being 6 or 7 years (or so) on Apple's iPhone, a switch to my new Samsung Galaxy II Skyrocket is a very pleasent experiance. I LOVE it, and I feel safe in saying I'm a Android OS fan for life now.

My Question, and I'm hoping I can find an answer, is what is the BEST Bluetooth controller I can get for my Android device (running ICS 4.0.4) to play games with?

so far my main 2 Applications that I would love for this controller to handle are SuperGNES and Onlive. I would like to keep my phone un-rooted (for now)

I've tried GameStops controller, which worked great on SuperGNES but not on Onlive. (It would only set in the games as a Keyboard/Mouse but with no mouse, so I could do everything but look in the game) Worked great on SuperGNES

I Also tried Rooting my Phone and using a PS3 controller, that worked well, but same issues as with the GameStop controller, so I restored my Phone back to non-rooted firmware and back to the leaked 4.0.4 ICS

I'm thinking of Just buying Onlive's Universal Controller, For sure it should work with the Onlive App. My question is, how does it preform on other Android Apps? does anyone have this controller and can tell me what other Apps it works with (without Rooting)

Or if anyone could tell me whats the best game controller that would be awesome too!

I plan on getting the Moga once it comes out, but I can't wait that long so I need something soon

I just went and pulled the trigger and purchased the Onlive Universal controller, I'll let you ll know how it works out ^-^ and if anyone has any questions about it (weither it be general questions or compatibility questions), feel free to post them here and I'll let you know what I can find out

It just came in today! Wow... much nicer than I imagined. It has a nice heavy (but not too heavy feel to it) making it feel like a quality product in my hand. So far I tested it on these Apps (unrooted):

Onlive: WORKS (I figured it would )

SuperGNES: WORKS (when mapping the controller, the A,B,X,Y buttons wouldn't show as anything entered as you set the keys, the field was left blank. Then when I got to Start, Select, D-pad, and Trigger buttons, the keys mapped and showed what they were mapped as. In game ALL BUTTONS worked great)

Hope that helps, I'll continue to grow this list as I try more!

Hey everyone! I decided to move this list to a new thread so it's easier to find.
