[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kpa2727:
Since 4.2 the wiimotes been dead which makes me sad since I built Custom Nes, Snes, Sega genesis and Atari controllers with Wiimotes inside them for retro on the go play. I don't know if the Ps3 Sixaxis worked on 4.2 ether. But getting to the point. I've tested both, sadly Both are dead. Wiimotes kick back a no route to host error. Sixaxis dosen't detect the controller through OTG to program the address I haven't tried manual pair yet but nothing sees the Ps3 sixaxis. I shout out to the devs who love tablet gaming, can we get anybody to look at source and see what's up?

Btw a note you can use Otg to use Ps3 sixaxis plugged in but you can't use it wirelessly.

UPDATE ! If you use the Sixaxis pair tool on your pc you can in fact pair the Six axis to the Nexus 7, 2013 model ! You just can't pair through OTG.

UPDATE 2 ! I finally got responses from the developer of Wii Controller app and Bluez Ime apps. The Bad first, Bluez Ime Dev looks to bedone for a while, he told me that it's a big task to update for variants across different hardware manufacture's and for now at least things are done. The good news Wii controller app developer is currently plugging away at updates, he has no ETA nut his short and sweet email concluded with "already working on it". I'm happy with all the Dev's hard work and keeping these apps alive.

UPDATE 3 ! I been talking to some Devs and picking up some info along the way, I talked to lead devs over at USB/ Bt/Joystick center 8 app. their app I've used in the past and it's highly worth the price. They weren't up and up on things to my standards in the past, since then things have come a long way. The Lead Dev explained to me that they have already finished Wiimote support for 4.2 and 4.3 they are planning to include it in their next big update. They could possibly update as soon as end of this week. Time will tell, I have purchased the app and I'll post back with results. I'm excited to get my controllers back.

Update 4 ! Sorry to get your hopes up but not yet, I been trying to stay in contact with the dev without being annoying. he's been really nice with providing some updates when I ask. So here's what's going on, he did update for bug tweaks just not the overhaul were looking for. he was about to release the update but found some bugs to work out. I do want to re state that this is not a incremental update for this Dev , he's re overhauling his entire app and from what I can tell it's a group of 2 or 3 guys. We all have lives and time is a virtue. no word from Dev but i'm hoping sometime this week we get our Wiimotes back.

Update 5 ! To those asking the app it called Usb / Bt joystick, I urge you to wait, the new version will be "gold" edition according to the DEV. It will feature Wiimote support for 4.2 and 4.3 the problem is he told me tonight. the support will be via a Otg adapter with Bluetooth dogle featuring a CSR chipset. It's not a huge deal since a little digging reveals that most have CSR chips in the dongle.As for the release, Gold edition is set to release in 2 days or so if all goes well. link to current app not supporting wiimotes but supporting xbox 360 controllers and ps3 plus touch emulation.

Here is why I care about the wiimote.

I custom built these, they all have wiimotes inside and nunchuks wired into the ones that need more buttons for their games. all wireless all Bluetooth powered by Wiimotes . And yes I have considered building them to sell but Idk if it's worth my time.
