Hi All
I am really thinking about getting a Switch the only problem is I only have the use of my Right Hand.
I am asking if anyone knows where I could buy an adapter to enable one hand game play.

Thanks

Hi
would double sided tape work ?

Hm. Well the shoulder buttons kind of protrude, so it might not fully stick unless it's a thick piece.

Edit: oh cool, there's an accessory for it.

Its just a pity Nintendo wouldnt develop a genuine accessory for people with the use of only one of their hands
they would make money

@diskinp that could be said of all console makers. So let's not play that game here.

I think I read that the Xbox Adaptive Controller can be modified to work with the Switch, I don't know if that would suit your specific problem though. Otherwise I hope the accessory that was mentioned above will help you.

@Dogorilla I was just about to reply with the same post!

I never drive faster than I can see. Besides, it's all in the reflexes.

@SwitchForce I didn't mean any offense
I simply wish that the console makers would consider the requirements for people with disabilities.
Why should they be excluded from gaming?

@Charlie_Girl Thank you

I just thought the switch looked like something I could use

@ReaderRagfihs

Here's a video which shows the Xbox adaptive controller working on the Switch: https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/11/video_using_the_xbox...
Hope that helps. By the way, I know of a few Switch games that can be played one-handed with just a single Joy-Con, such as Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee, The World Ends With You, and the indie game Bomb Chicken.

Theres also some games that can be played entirely with the touch screen, like Piczle Lines and Harvest Moon.

I've only got use of my right hand and have an adapter to slot joy cons in back to back.
Twin stick games (eg gungeon and splatoon) are beyond me but I can get by ok on games like Revelations 2, Yule Warriors and Mario kart.
