I read devices with snapdragon 845 (or 8xx...?) may runĀ Zelda games, such as Twilight Princess, not at full speed but at "acceptable" FPS.

But in Skyward Sword case, even if the above were true, there's still the issue with the Wii motion plus controls.
Do you think it's possible to somehow sort out controls for Zelda SS on Android devices today, or is it just the same story as for desktop?

Thanks very much beforehand.
I hope so purely because I'd love to see people swinging around their phones like maniacs because the gyro is partially used to figure out swinging in SS.
I think with this PR: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/8352 and with an application that can send gyroscope information over UDP, this could be possible. Though this PR doesn't do anything for Android.
Nice example of this in Cemu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pp1B8S7yxI

Sievn, the video you linked to contains an APK download for MMJ Dolphin without any associated source code. Providing only an APK without the possibility of downloading source code is against Dolphin's license, and by extension the forum rules, so I have removed the link to the video.
I removed the post to make things easier down the road.

Wrong. There's a UDP Server available for Android phones as well, but it provides only motion data.
Sorry, forgot one detail.

Which snapdragon at least? (It's not in the FAQ). Could 820 be kinda enough for more or less "playable" speeds?
I have that in a Samsung galaxy s7. it was running about 50-60% on it regardless of the video backend for a game like windwaker.
I didn't think the hyrule field speed hack work with windwaker I though it was for twilight princess. Anyway I try pokemon colosseum early today and it was running around 33-43 fps also. There a high performence mode that I didn't try because i think it only affect the device screen. I could try that but I not hopeful on any change. I post cpu z from the device if your interested in that info. I fairly sure on the top it said it was a snapdragon 820 though. If I remember right it running android 8.0 or 8.1 the phone off and charging right now.
