This is a very heart warming development for me.
My dad has one hand, and only one finger on the hand he does have. He LOVED playing Atari 2600 and NES when I was a kid and I have very fond memories of playing games with him.
After the SNES though he completely stopped playing games out of frustration, angry about why they needed so many buttons. I don’t think he ever even attempted to play our N64, let alone later consoles.
I really hope the price point is accessible, I’d love to play games with my dad again.
- watwut 9y agoHad you looked at http://www.ablegamers.org/ http://www.ablegamers.org/ ? They can help to select right assistive technology for your dad.
- arkh 9y agoYou may want to let him try some "simple" games : things like super hexagon or one finger death punch require only 2 keys. And some reflexes.

- kingbirdy 9y agoOutside of this controller, if you and your dad have any interest in fighting games, you could check out Dive Kick - it's a two button fighting game, and they sell (sold?) a special controller with only two buttons.
