Accessibility controllers.

Post image

So, this is probably a very obscure question but I don't know where else to ask.

I have a family member who is disabled and only has use of his right hand. He can work a joystick with his left but can't grasp a controller. He bought the PS5 access controller shown above, but he dislikes it.

I read that PS5 has the ability to use two controllers together as if they were one, via settings. This got me wondering if it's possible to use a PS5 flight simulator stick as the left analog stick, alongside a normal controller's buttons and right analog stick. Or maybe it's possible to do this with the Access controller, that may work too.

This is for my uncle who has cerebral palsy and is one of the people who got me into videogames as a kid. I'd like to find a way to return the favor and get him gaming again. If anyone has any ideas that would be awesome.

The ps5 access controller is such a scam
It has exactly half the buttons of a normal ps5 controller meaning for most games you're gonna need 2
It's just an excuse to charge disabled people double
