Gamepad Mapper

Gamepad Mapper dramatically expands your library of Android games by adding controller support to native touchscreen games, making everything from NBA JAM to Angry Birds playable on the SHIELD portable's console-grade controller.  NVIDIA provides default Gamepad Mapper profiles for hundreds of top Android games, which are automatically downloaded from the cloud so you can just launch your game and play.  Use NVIDIA's default profile, or create your own custom profile and share it with the community.

When a Mapper game is launched, a message is displayed stating that Gamepad Mapper is activated.

A full list of Android games supported by Gamepad Mapper can be found at:
