Nope, I don’t know for sure it would work. The VCS ran Linux though which is what android is under the hood so there’s a good chance.
It should play well if it works with that app. A phone stand or a case with one would be good.
Comment on I repurposed an old phone into a portable Atari 2600 for my mom
Wolfizen@pawb.social 2 weeks agoThanks for the suggestion.
How well do you think it will play? Two hands on the controller mean none for the phone. Maybe it would need a phone stand too?
I’ve had a hard time finding information on controller compatibility. Do you know for certain that 2600.emu will work with the CX40+ Wireless via OTG?

The controller is almost certainly an HID compatible controller that will work with any application that supports controllers.
As for a stand, I recommend a pop socket-style thing, as it permenantly attaches to the phone.
