HnH and Tablet Pc's

Postby dariun » Wed Sep 12, 2012 10:37 am

Hey all

I was just wondering if anyone here has played or is playing HnH on a Tablet?

I'm thinking of getting a Nexus 7 and read it supports mice (connected via a USB to go cable) and immediately wondered if playing HnH was possible on an Android Tablet?

Anyone know?

Thanks!

Forgot to add/remember that I made a similar post back in June and know that I can use Teamviewer to remotely connect to my desktop/laptop.

I am thinking more on the lines of actually playing HnH on the tablet itself and not remotely.

Given the specs of some tablets, namely the Nexus 7, I would have thought it would be good enough spec wise?

I was thinking the only tweaking I would need to do connect a usb mouse to the micro usb port via a Usb to go cable?


Thanks!

well you've just to google a bit yourself...

Nexus 7 runs Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean)...

You'll need Java (min. Java SE 5) to run HnH...

Now google whether that Java SE works on Android 4.1 and you'll have the answer...

I completely didn't even think about Java and whether it would work on Android :?

I was only concerned with the hardware heh. After googling a bit..i'm unsure whether I am googling the right thing or not as Wiki mentions Apps for Android are written in Java so one would assume it would support Java, but wiki mentions there is no support for Java VM? :?
