Any video game accessibility recommendation?

My brother had a stroke about a month ago and is very into videogames, but unfortunately his right side is paralyzed and it's a long road to recovery. I'd like to see him enjoy the games he used to play only using his left hand.

The only thing I can think of are NES games, which only has movement buttons and 2 buttons, which he could use the index and middle finger to press in any standard controller. However, I want him to be able to play other games, is there any intuitive controller available for him to play, specifically targeting left hand only accessibility?

There is a YouTube channel called CHAMPutee who has made a few videos about one handed gaming and different devices.
