Hi,

I have an android gamepad with integrated gamepad (and button mapper too) but I can't find any tetris game which uses the gamepad ?

Are they any practicable solutions? Is there any game which supports the gamepad?

I've found some practicable solutions:

1. Bad Solution (but works in every situation)
a) Download your favorite Tetris from the Store
b) Use apps to force your Landscape (maybe you need a rooted device)
c) Use the another app to map your joystick-inputs to touchscreen-inputs

2. Use NES Emulator
Self explanatory
hint. there are some tetris mods so you can play tetris with insantdrop

3. USE GBA Emulator
Use Tetris Worlds, but tbh it feels laggy but it feels same laggy as it feels on the pc emulator^^

4. PPSSPP Emulator
PSP Tetris Mini
Bad:
- JXD is not supported by PPSSPP on Play Store = you need to configure the keypad by your own.
- Sound quality is bad compared to PC emulator
- You need to configure like 10 settings
Good:
- It works with 60/60fps without frameskipping.
- You can play multiplayer with other android devices (needs an "proAdhocServer")

Tested on jxd s7800 it worked well except the "forced landscape"-solution of solutions one (I tried to force tetris blitz to landscape) = the screen was sized to max = tetris looks so bad

If you are still around here, please give my version a try:

Falling Lightblocks

It is with gamepad support, but in portrait mode. Let me know if force landscape works for you, but we could also try to enable it for the game without hacks.
