Turn your Android handset into a gaming console

Over the last week, I’ve posted several articles about portable gaming on Android smartphones, including one about the GameKlip, a clip that mounts your device to a PS3 controller. The video below takes thing a step further and looks at how you can turn your Android phone into a complete gaming console setup. It includes a demo of using various emulators, controls and how to connect the handset to a television via an MHL cable. A setup like this could become even more seamless if using an HTC Media Link HD (available now) or a Samsung AllShare Cast Dongle (coming soon).
