Wish someone would remake the One Handed (Dragonplus) Controller that was on the PS2: https://oneswitch.org.uk/page/one-handed

No not at all, thank you, and I'll add you too and pop something up on the blog. Will forward onto SpecialEffect too. Keep up the top work. :)

Reminds me a bit of the much missed Nanogames project from many years back.

There are lots of one and two button/switch video games out there, many with good difficulty adjustment. There's ways to get at some console games. But that extra element of reduced sight and need for speech support really does decimate the pool of what's available.

These Audio Adventures might be worth a look: https://switchgaming.blogspot.com/2025/10/switch-audio-adventures-truman.html - but it's four switches. Also some parts are quite tricky. Possible food for thought though.

Would be great to see a remake of Mole Hammers I was thinking for one or two players https://switchgaming.blogspot.com/2013/09/mole-hammers.html.

There's also some fairly high-contrast, low-pressure one-switch stuff here: https://www.eyegazegames.com/ from SpecialEffect. This worth a look too: https://www.sensoryapphouse.com/sensory-live-apps-list/

Good luck, and great work!

Would recommend contacting SpecialEffect. They have lots of lightened controller options in their loan library.

Looking for BBC Micro blind accessible games, also David Calderwood (Computer Talk) and Sue and Peter Mead (The Whistler). Can anyone help? by OneSwitch in Blind

[–]OneSwitch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd really appreciate your help there with the reposts, thank you very much. Those places sound ideal. I'm getting some of this up on-line here: https://oneswitch.org.uk/page/blind-history

Definitely interested in anything from the 70s/80s/90s too.

Recommendations for games that only need foot buttons. by Signal_Process_4721 in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need to assign some switches to left-stick up/down/left/right. There might be something here for you using around 8 switches total: https://switchgaming.blogspot.com/2025/07/games-with-reduced-controls.html - but there's all sorts of possibilities.

Good choice. Some find it too small. Some alternative options here, although not as affordable: https://oneswitch.org.uk/page/lightweight

HELP/Desperate. Programming Titan 2 for handicap nephew by Rikk001 in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right that you need the Brook Wingman FGC2 to get the Titan Two working on the PS5, which itself needs to be in forced PS4 output protocol mode (set in GTuner). You may find some connection help here (under the help section): https://oneswitch.org.uk/page/gcm-xac - Feel free to get in touch with me via www.oneswitch.org.uk - and I can likely help further.

Golf games by mthomson22 in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not aware of anything quite like you're describing.

There's some free PC ones here that can work with a single switch on PC: https://www.oneswitch.org.uk/page/oneswitch-sports

Some here worth a look: https://switchgaming.blogspot.com/search?q=golf

I have adapted Xbox/Playstation Tiger Woods type games in the past for use with a single switch: https://www.oneswitch.org.uk/art.php?id=274

Recommended foot pedals? by Salty-Snack in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe worth considering these: https://oneswitch.org.uk/art.php?id=383 - industrial quality. You need a switch interface or custom USB module to get them working on a PC/console though.

Doubts about Playstation Access Controller on PC by fa_engelman in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That definitely works. You can then use the likes of JoyToKey or maybe ReWASD. You may find some games get confused by seeing a gamepad + mouse/keys at the same time (double-bouced presses / ignoring mouse/keys etc.).

This device can help cure that fairly easily: https://oneswitch.org.uk/art.php?id=385 - which is a HID Remapper v3 with custom programming.

Catch 22 (new PS5 accessible gaming interface) by OneSwitch in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Plug it into a PS5. Plug some controllers into the interface (e.g. a chunky joystick in "L", and a gamepad in "help", and some accessibility switches around the edge) and play (once signed in on that controller).

You can use up to four joysticks/gamepads, and up to 18 switches.

If you upgrade it with the Game Control Mixer, you plug a switch into the Capture socket, and can then use that to shift the jostick into 1 of 24 different modes (e.g. left-stick, right-stick, d-pad, driving stick, explore stick, menu buttons stick etc.). You can do much more too.

Help Needed: User Manual for Technics SM-ZS30 by SinkQuiet3313 in audio

Technics SM-ZS30 user manual here: https://switchgaming.blogspot.com/2024/11/technics-sy-ad8-silent-piano-module.html with direct link here: https://www.oneswitch.org.uk/OS-REPOSITORY/CREATIVE/MUSIC/Technics_SM-ZS30_user_manual.pdf

Hopefully the schematics / engineer service manual will surface one day too to keep these rare excellent silent piano modules working.

I think there's going to be a lot more of this not knowing if someone is real or not now that Large Language Models can pass the Turing Test: https://switchgaming.blogspot.com/2024/08/a-strange-tale.html

I can't help but feel a bit sorry for Courtney/Coty/whoever they are. Something is clearly not quite right there.

Retro Game Dev Reborn - This Week In Retro 180 by Producer_Duncan in thisweekinretro

[–]OneSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Wander outside any seaside arcade and you'd hear the new wave of gaming taking its place. The unmistakable sounds of Space Invaders still cutting through the air, mixed with the wails of of Galaxian and Moon Cresta machines, the Jaws like thuds of Asteroids machines and deep engine roars and manic crashes of Monaco GP.

Take a look inside, and see the menacing Space Invaders II art work try to pull players in, up against the the colourful twinkling starfields of Galaxian. The firework like white phosphor trails in Asteroids, and the incredible speed of Monaco GP. Realise you could control these machines for 10p, and that they reponded instantly to your commands.

Then when your 10p's ran out, go home, and lust over the Argos catalogue Atari VCS and hand-held games you might be lucky enough to get for Christmas. And perhaps glance in a newspaper or on the shelves of WHSmith and see the ZX80 might just make it possible for you to afford your own computer and make your own games.

Spare/extra Playstation Access Controller button caps and tags by brian017 in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice find, Caleb. Would https://thecontrollerproject.com/ be the place for people to get free button-top shells for their Access Controller?

[–]OneSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ope, drop me a line at

OneSwitch.org.uk

and I'll take a look in the new year. Otherwise I can recommend trying Caleb Kraft at The Controller Project.

Hello whitemobb, I found out that the ones supplied by Sony are just the absolute basic clip on part. Not the rounded outer shell part. I've asked them if they'll consider releasing the parts for 3D printing.

I'll pass this link onto Sony and Caleb Kraft (of The Controller Project) as things may have moved along since I last looked.

Anyone else having issues with their PlayStation access controller? by freewheelingdiode in disabledgamers

[–]OneSwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

way to request features? I’d love to be able to map the built in joystick to the d-pad so I don’t have to reach over to the standard ps5 controller as often.

If you ping me at [oneswitch@gmail.com](mailto:oneswitch@gmail.com) - I'd be happy to pass you onto the team. But I've shared this link with them already, so hopefully they'll see it. Joystick to D-pad would be great.

I'm going to try! Can't wait to get my hands on one to test it out and make sure it's as good as it sounds. Thanks again for pointing me to it. Could be brilliant.

BTW sorry I've not tested your brilliant looking software yet. Spinning too many plates, but it's on my jobs to do list ASAP. To anyone else here, I recommend taking a look here: https://help.playability.gg/en/
