When it comes to emulate Playstation [PS1/PSX] games on android cell phones then ePSXE is the best app for the purpose. Playstation was launched back in 1994 and has some of the award winning gaming titles that are still in demand for remastering on newer PlayStation 4. I am a huge fan of this gaming console and used to play games on it in my childhood, but unfortunately, I never had PSONE.

Years later I discovered that Sony Playstation games can be played on PC and android cell phones. So, I wrote articles on emulating PS1 games on Windows PC and Android Phones. These articles are very helpful to people who are searching for the right tutorial to play PS1 games on smartphones.

Currently, there are two best PS1 emulators for android. One is FPSE and another is ePSXE. If you have an older smartphone running android [2.3 – 4.3] then FPSE is the app that you should use. Please read FPSE tutorial. But if your phone is running android [5.0 – 6.0] Lollipop to Marshmallow then ePSXE is the app for you because it can handle octa-core android smartphones to give smooth gaming experience over FPSE.

I am in a favour of ePSXE because it is easy to use and configure. It’s ability to automatically download cheats for games is remarkable. ePSXE android cheats can be applied during game play for immediate effect while other emulators may not let you do so.

ePSXE Android: How To Use Cheats In PlayStation [PS1/PSX] Games

I will be using Tekken 3 game and will show you how to apply cheats on it. I am assuming that you read my previous article on using and configuring ePSXE on android. If not then go here.

• Launch any game. Tap the menu or back button to access options.
• Here tap ‘Cheat Codes’. A popup will open stating ‘No cheat codes found for game’.

• Tap Download. Wait till you see “Cheat Codes downloaded”.
• Now again go to ‘Cheat code’ option and see the complete list here.
• There is a checkbox in front of every cheat, put a check on it then tap ‘Apply’.

Recommended Cheats For Tekken 3

Below is a list of some cheats that I recommend to you for playing Tekken 3 on android.

• Infinite Health P1: Your player’s health will be infinite. It will be immortal and can’t be defeated by anyone.
• Absolutely Everything Unlocked: Use this cheat to unlock everything in Tekken 3 like the ‘Theater Mode’, ‘Tekken Ball Mode’, ‘All Players’.
• Infinite Supercharge: Defeat your opponent in one hit.
• Rest of the cheats you can check yourself.

Creating Cheat File For ePSXE Android

Sometimes it may happen that the downloading of cheats may not work or the emulator can’t find GameShark codes for the game you are playing. In this case, you have to manually create a cheat file and save it with original game code name in ‘Internal Storage>ePSXE>Cheats’.

The format for the cheats is given below.

#Description
300A961E 008C

The first line gives the description, the second is the cheat code itself.  A complete cheat code file will look like this below. Save this file as a text file having the .txt format.

Naming A Cheat File

Now here comes the tricky part and the entire working of the file depends on this part only. You can’t name your cheat file just anything and wish to work with ePSXE. Every Playstation game has a region code that starts either with ‘SLUS’ or ‘SCES’. So Tekken 3’s SLUS code is ‘SLUS-00402’. So, your cheat code file name will be ‘SLUS_004.02’ and save this file as text.  Naming is simple, just replace the hyphen with an underscore and put a dot after first three digits then save it as .txt. Now paste this cheat file in ‘Internal Storage>ePSXE>Cheats.’ Open the game and enjoy. You can search SLUS-codes of your games on Google.

I have already written about playing psone games on android with FPSE, but most of the users are finding it hard to configure. Yes, FPSE emulator is a little bit hard to configure since it requires many settings to be rightly configured.

⚠️ Important Update This article has gone very old by today's standards.
Kindly follow the updated article for — How to Play PlayStation [PS1/PSX] Games On Android with DuckStation.

It doesn't matter where you put the games whether, on SDcard, internal storage or external USB storage, ePSXe will scan the entire storage to find the games. To let this happen follow the steps below

Important Note: I prefer using a USB OTG drive to play PS1 games through it because I can put many ISOs on it. You can put one PS1 rom in SDcard, one in internal storage and one in external storage. Now follow the steps below.

• Open the app then tap 'Run Game'.
• Tap the 'Refresh' button on top right.
• A popup will appear asking for scanning the games.

• Long tap on any game. A popup will open asking you to create a shortcut.
• You can also name the shortcut if you want. Finally tap 'Yes, Large'.
• Go to home screen and see the shortcut.
• Tap this game shortcut to launch it anytime.

2. CPU: Disable all settings in CPU preferences like frameskip, show FPS and MME (Autodetect).
3. Screen Orientation: It should be 'Landscape'.
4. Screen Ratio: User 'Stretch' for full screen or else '4:3'.
5. Video Renderer: In this option select 'Hardware (faster+smoother)'.


Note: You can use a cheat to unlock everything in the Tekken 3 game. There is no need to use memory cards if you use cheats. Please scroll down to the cheats sections.

Player Input

If two player wants to play at a time then you need a supported joystick or keyboard. You need to connect the keyboard via OTG to your android and the set the buttons for the second player. To do this follow the steps below.

• Connect the USB keyboard/joystick to android via OTG.
• Open 'Preferences' and go to 'Player 2' tap it and select the joystick in 'Select Gamepad' option.
• Now tap 'Player 2 map buttons'.

Two Players One Phone

ePSXe has a built in split screen feature for two players so that 2 players can play simultaneously. This feature is not useful for phones which support less than 10 multi-touchscreen points. You can run a benchmark test on your phone or tablet to check the multi touch on your phone. To use the split screen function follow the steps below.

• Go to 'Preferences>INPUT PREFERENCES>Number of Players'. Here select '2 players (split mode)'.
• The go to the main screen tap 'Run Game' then select your game. You will see a split screen with two gamepads.
• You can see the horizontal split on a 4 inch screen phone. This looks garbled. Only 'SplitVert' will work on smaller screens.

• Tap the back key and tap 'SplitVert' if the horizontal split is not working correctly.

• Basically 'SplitHorz1' and 'SplitHorz2' will not work properly on phones having screens less than 5 inches.

Note: If it is difficult to share the phone's screen then you can use your TV screen to play the game. But your server phone should have MHL support. Connect the phone to TV's HDMI port by using a MHL cable and enjoy ePSXe games on a large TV screen.

Customize Gamepad

ePSXe has default gamepad layout in which the LR buttons are very small. So on a larger screen like that of a Galaxy S7, android tablets the buttons will look too small to register an input from the touch. So you may find that the buttons do not work sometimes when tapping. To solve this problem we have to increase the buttons size according to the screen's size for the best gameplay experience.

• Open the app and go to 'Preferences>TouchScreen Gamepad'. It can be found in 'INPUT PREFERENCES'.
• Tap 'Pad Skin' and select 'Pure White - Digital'.
• Tap 'Transparency on skins' and select '100/100'.
• Vibration on touchscreen should be disabled.
• Here tap 'Pad1 Format Editor'. You will see a gamepad editor like this.

• The buttons with RED marks mean that they are not visible on screen while playing. 
• To individually increase the size of any button first tap it so that a green box encloses it then tap the plus '+' button on top to increase the size. Similarly use the '-' button to decrease size.
• Long tap any button and drag it anywhere on the screen then drop it anywhere on the screen for your convenience.
• Head over to the LR buttons. First tap the 'L2' button once then use the '+' button to increase its size. Similarly do it for L1, R1, R2 buttons.
• Now after increasing the size long tap the 'L2' button and drop it slightly away from 'L1' so that there is enough space between them. Similarly do it for R2. Finally tap 'Save & Exit' a popup will open tap 'Yes, save and quit'.

Memory Cards

• Go to 'Preferences>MEMCARDS PREFERENCES'. Here tap 'Memcards File Mode' and select 'shared by all games' if you are playing only one PS1 game otherwise choose 'individual by game (in hle force)' if you are playing multiple games so that game data is stored separately.
• Tap 'Memcard1 file' and select 'epsxe000.mcr'. Then tap 'Memcard2 file' and choose 'epsxe001.mcr'.
