Long ass thread warning
So the Android games which I have tested out over the last few days and how they ran on my s7300, I got a mix of results some games you would expect to work don’t, and others you wouldn’t expect to run do. I also got a mix of results from the Nubs some games they feel silky smooth and really well made, and on some games they felt like cheap chines 3ds rip-offs because of JXDs week software for mapping the controls.
All of the games in the list at the top are confirmed to be working from users over at Dingoonity.org, however some of these games did not run for me or caused the s7300 to lock up or reboot. I do have all my apps on the sd card and using directory bind for the data, so this could be the cause of some of my stability issues. But you’ve got to run it this way really unless you only want a small collection of the larger sized games to play.
I also discovered that External controllers can be connected, now many will say this defeats the point of a gaming tablet, and yes to a degree it does. However this can still have a practical use if used in conjunction with hdmi out. Dunno about everyone else but my Hdmi cables about a meter long, and my sofa is about 3 meters away from our 42” tv. So the only options hare are to sit on the floor inches away from the tv or connect a ps3 or xbox controller wireless to thes7300, leave the s7300 next to the tv and go lye/sit on the sofa and play comfortably without straining my eyes. It also enables you to play games like NOVA 3 which don’t map to the hardware Nubs But will Map to the external controller, or if you have a game stand you can prop the console on a table or lye on a sofa and ballance it on your lap and play nova, deadtrigger etc

I’ve tried to concentrate on only games that would utilise the nubs, if anyone has a s7300 and knows of any good games I've missed out so far (there are loads still to try) post what kind of results you got
UPDATE:
I Have formatted the S7300 and removed directory bind and apps to sd to retest the games above to see how it effected the copmpatability, some n games not working before now work (the issue was probably having so many applications and data all stored to the sd card at the same time was making the s7300 stuggle to locate everything) I have only tried a few games out and tried a few new ones out then strated the n64 compatability test out. So far this is what i have got to add to the compatable android games.
