"Too demanding" for high-end Android devices

[Phozz]

I want to know which titles are able to run flawlessly on high-end Android devices (such as the Galaxy S8 or Nvidia Shield TV/Tablet) & which titles are too demanding for every device to run. Help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you!

Fire Emblem Path of Radiance
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn
Super Mario Sunshine
Pokemon XD
Zelda Wind Waker
Luigi's Mansion
Crash Nitro Kart
Custom Robo
Cubivore
Burnout
Baten Kaitos Series
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Burnout
Rayman 3
Resident Evil 0
Soul Calibur 2
Super Mario Strikers
Mario Power Tennis
Kururin Squash

These games all run almost flawlessly on my Android phone.

Snapdragon 821

You may notice minor drops in speed but this doesn't affect the playability and they do seem to play full speed.

Some devices have aggressive throttling and may hamper performance.

THANK YOU FOR THE REPLY! & I heard that FF: CC becomes unplayable at a certain point in the game. Is that still true?

I guess I haven't played enough of that one to really tell I suppose.

I'll be sure to provide an update of the games I absolutely could not play.

An Android compatibility list would be great , I think is not done because the platform has yet to mature enough for anything to be certain.

Thanks, man! I'll be looking forward to it! I truly appreciate it!

It is not worth because of another reason: There is no "android" compatibility, just a list of ARM recompiler issues mixed with a list of GPU driver bugs / lacking features.

I don't remember any bug report about ARM recompiler issues. I bet there are many, and I'm glad to work on fixing them. But I need such bug reports, *separated* from the next list.

A compatibility list for GPU driver bugs / missing features is hard to maintain. It is not a list of games, it is a relation to GPU hardware, driver version, and often also mobile manufactor.

Oh, and keep in mind to double check the game settings (as they aren't loaded automatically on android) and to disable dual core and CPU clock override.

That makes sense. Thanks for clearing things up for us!

Is melee playable? If so, what settings?
