I mean if people say it’s trash that’s their fault, they built the controller lol

"Mfs be like Subway is trash, my brother in Christ, you made the sandwich" moment

@@cosmo9mm I mean the ingredients at subway aren’t good imo

I mean it's definitely gonna suck in basically all capacities compared to a regular controller but it's not meant for us, it's for people who have motor issues and can't hold normal controllers at all or for long or people who want to try new set ups.

​@@BellyChuggyThat means your local Subway is trash. They're supposed to get their supplies locally, such as farms. I work at Subway and our tomato boxes are literally labeled with a local farm from about 50 miles away. It is on the franchise owner AFAIK to source their ingredients well, but they also risk getting shut down if they do not match Subway's expectations. I live on the east coast of the USA, ymmv.

The plug controller

the balls controller

im using the 184829738183 combo

Split T+B setup start sideways S shape formation 5

T-1000 controller

I mean, it’s also good for people who just want custom controller configurations, not just who needs it. This makes the device better than how great it already is.

It's also expensive. Wasting resources for a product a small percentage of gamers will actually use. I don't see it lasting long.

Accessibility also includes financial accessibility.

​@ShadeKoopa that's a insane claim there's a ridiculous amount of disabled people but it's not just for people like that. The price is ridiculous though so I could definetly see that as being the reason it would fall into obscurity

​@@no-fd6mt I kinda agree that the price is a bit steep, but I'm looking at it from a company standpoint also and if the target audience is smaller, or if they aren't sure that they'll sell allot of them, they are probably either not sure if they'll sell enough to cover cost.. or they are "testing the waters" to see if this would be profitable and/or viable.

"tf you mean your 'controller pattern' bro!?"

Commander Karl reloading this mf 😂

Evil idea: Imagine if the controller had motion controls so in the tech demo game it would force you to rebuild the controller into what ever weapon that was needed to progress for example you would have to manually build a sword and swing it

I mean, I use an Azeron Cyborg for gaming, so this is already an issue for me. I have to remap my keypad for every new game. XD

​@@Holygroceries gotta go from stearing wheel to fight pad bro give 10 minutes(several clacking) i made a fight ring get in

It’s more for people with disabilities

Yeah that was very bulky but as I see it their approach with that was to have basically a central device to plug in whatever external button or whatever you meed to use

Both the original adaptive controller and this have their use cases, for example with the original one I could set up a foot pedal and a flow sensor for a buddy to breath into for extra button inputs outside of their only working hand

Yeah but you gotta think about how much smaller the market is and how much assembly, design, and resources cost. They can sell a standard controller for 40$ no problem because millions of players are buying them and it’s a relatively old model so they have definitely earned back the money they have put in. A controller designed specifically for disabled gamers however? That’s a very small and niche market by comparison so that’s why it’s gonna cost both Microsoft and the consumer more.

​@@talapantedtoad6461I would normally sat yes, but I know many pc players that would get this just for the capability to make the joystick version so they can use it as a flight stick. If it was cheaper. I would buy it if it was 100. Just it being so customizable is such a great thing for us pc players.

You kinda can, just wider

@@CmdrCookie I wonder how comfortable it would be compared to a normal controller

On the BioWave unlisted video with the blue bear, as it’s assembling the pieces you can see the controller shape without the handles, then right before the transition there’s like a half second where it shows the full controller with handles on it.

That’s really sweet! I hope he enjoys it

ur a nice frend dud

Enough to make a grown man cry

Humanity restored. Well done King. Godspeed. 🙏✊

That's stupid as fuck. I grew up with a kid paralyzed in one arm and all me and him did in the summers was play games together, he cN learn to use one hand

Lol

From what I've heard it doesn't have any rumble...

@@Kristopian the joystick tho if you know what I mean...

Yup very silly looking but if it works for 1/3 impaired people then damn was it a good idea

@@1993rnicholson yeah, just make it more affordable and it might end up being the perfect controller for a lot of people

@@cjlite0210 Not likely, this is a niche controller for a niche demographic. They don't want a huge inventory of these lying around collecting dust. This is a case where they have to charge more for what they have, this isn't some xbox controller they make tons of, this is a specialized controller. This was a fully licensed product having to run through microsoft and doesn't include time spent testing,etc. They need to charge more to probably recoup costs and that includes charging more and keeping inventory manageable. This wasn't some one off diy clunky homemade design made to order in someones basement, which still would have cost in the same range and not be technically authenticated to work on console hardware. Keep in mind they aren't charging this much to be selfish and profitable but that this is specialized for a minority demographic. Fight sticks, wheels,etc all cost upwards of several hundreds depending on quality, this is for disabled and impaired gamers so please keep that in mind.

Idk bout you but I've had my controllers for years and used then very often and none of them have drift

Agreed, accessibility is always a win!

On thoughts of Microsoft yeah they just want money but investing in this kind of stuff is still a plus and yeah I bet some of the people involved are just great people who fought for this even if not everyone there cares all that much

Well it's only expensive because there's a lot fewer people who need it so it doesn't benefit from mass production which leads to cheaper prices

The option could be it not existing at all. Why should a company purposely run itself bankrupt to help people. Company is 0 use if it doesn't exist

It looks like it's just magnets or something. I do wonder what part is broadcasting the inputs or if all of them are sending individual buttons presses to the system, because the latter sounds like a nightmarish driver configuration.

It looks....... Unique

@@da_chimken Just looks like a bumpy Wiimote to me (at least in it's "stock" settings).

I did wonder that myself. And how strong are the connections between the different segments?

Ita not scummy ita how the market works like he said certain things are just expensive no matter where tou get it😂

@@codmskellig2269 idk why i read this in an italian accent

@@BlackHaunter666hahah me too

i'd be so onboard. ill gladly pay $1 extra if it means people with disabilities (who often are not very rich), are able to afford this and be able to play games, and due to the sheer volume of normal controllers sold vs these is so big thay it'd easily be minimum 30% off from the accessible controller, if not alot more.

Lets make it $5 because that would let these be at near charity prices for impaired people even if they charged normal people the $300 pricetag because some not impaired people will definitely want one

Microsoft could just swallow a minor loss to their profit margins instead of relying on the consumers to subsidize their product

@@thebigcheese8715 that may be against the law. in the U.S companies must do all they can to maximize profits for the shareholders.

@@thebigcheese8715 they absolutely could but Microsoft isn’t a charity and their shareholders would never allow it. You when you get groceries and they ask if you’d like to donate a dollar to x foundation, or x charity? Even that would be a good idea, leave it up to the people to make that decision for themselves. Just have the option to donate a dollar on every Microsoft transaction in stores. I think if gamers knew they were donating to benefit the community it’d probably do well.

Yes, yes it is. No argument there. However you have to take into account that this is a niche product for a niche demographic, they probably aren't going to make alot of these. Alot of the people buying this admitingly will be nondisabled gamers who can absorb the cost and feel it might be a alternative control scheme is my guess. Well this isn't for children, my guess is the market is older disabled teens adults who predominately make up the gaming market. While i can argue both sides of that argument lets not bellyache and pretend this wasn't made for older gamers who make up the purchasing power of the videogame market. Lets not pretend and exaggerate that their will be little timmy's crying in the streets for this device.

@@peterkozlowski4377 all what you are saying is true, it’s just it’s very annoying to see just in general how overpriced everything is for disabled people nowadays.

@@estebang4538 No no i agree its a shame, but these things cost money to make and develop for albeit a small demographic vs. the general populous. Think of these in the category of wheels, fightsticks, etc. Highly specific controllers that might cost 100's when selling. They need to recoup the cost of research development,etc.

its gonna start out fierce expensive but if more and more companies start putting stuff out like this and they become easier to make overtime the price will probably drop

Yep, disabled tax is a huge issue.

What?

Sony has been making the same controllers with the same trash rubber membrane buttons since the ps1. Before you get into that fan boy nonsense I only use pc.

and how many companies have even made a unique controller

​​@@xxzenonionnex7658stop the cap I can tell you dont use a ps5 controller because it's definitely not even close to the same as the others 😅

Xbox have already made an adaptive controller for people with disabilities.

Now I can game with one hand!

Well technically ms didn't make it unless mistaken, they just authorized and authenticated it for their console after the company paid them for the privilege

Also the fact that it's targeted at a small audience, meaning that they don't get the benefits of mass manufacturing and can't spread out the costs as much
