And yes the system will have touch controls built in, however the version of the emulator used here to create these doesn't have those controls from what the dev can tell.
Basically to get these on to a Tegra device thats not Playstation certified will likely require a modification to the build.prop on the device at a minimum, but I'm sure theres more to it.
Please understand that I do not mean to insult here.
I have read this article multiple times, and in fact remember when it first was written. I know the date. However, the PS Suite is slated for a December release to select Tegra devices. In addition, it does not say "don't expect it to work on your Xoom". To add such quotes as if you were quoting an article is entirely unethical. It does say however: " so don't go assuming that your Xoom will necessarily get the PlayStation Certified badge". It basically says that the Xoom will not necessarily get the PS Suite, not that it will not be for the Xoom. The emulators posted here are for Xperia Play, I realize this, but the future emulators will support touch input.
I apologize if I came off as standoffish, I did not mean to. Probably what happens when I am posting early in the morning and anticipating having to leave for work (kill me). However being an Xperia Play owner I have been all over every bit of info we can get on the PS Suite as its the "killer app" for the phone. Over on xda developers everyone has been following everything. There has been nothing that has indicated to me that the PS Suite will be released for general Tegra phones. All that Sony has said is anything Playstation Certified will be able to access it, and that the hardware certification is open to other manufacturers. Based on the fact the certification has been out since the Play's release early this year, and no devices other than the Play, S1, and P have it, I doubt any current devices will get it. That doesn't mean future non-Sony Tegra 2 based devices won't have this, but as the article says, "don't go assuming that your Xoom will necessarily get the PlayStation Certified badge". Sorry I paraphrased it, but what I wrote caught the same meaning, its not unethical, its a message board posting. And yes I was wrong about the touch input in my first post I don't know why I typed that because of course, I know that the S1 and P both don't have physical buttons.
So what I am saying is, based on everything I've read, don't expect any existing hardware to be compatible with it, but its possible future non-Sony hardware will be. That said, I'm sure once more examples of games and Sony tablets are in peoples hands, someone will figure out how to force it to work anyway, just like people use Chainfire 3D to run Tegra games on non-Tegra devices.
