Re: Bayonetta 2 Wins The Ablegamers' Accessible Mainstream Game of the Year Award

I'd like to be further proof that physically disabled people can be interested in video games (such a shock, I know), I'd like to say something. Oh, and, if you think I'm an old pensioner with parkinsons, I'm 17.

As a person with limited capabilities (moderate on the left hand, mild on the right), Bayonetta 2 has been the most accessible console game for me in like, forever (excluding JRPGs, Spirit Tracks/PH and maybe SSB). Whenever I got to a QTE, I switched to touchscreen controls to get it done, then switched back.
I only wish that the GC controller was more widely compatible, as often my left palm (specifically the bit below your thumb) accidently hits the D-pad, but then again B2 resolves this by allowing you to bind the D-pad to items which you have nothing of, and allows item use in the pause screen.

Thank you Nintendo Life for highlighting this. Hopefully more developers follow this route, then people like myself will be able to actually get excited about a game without worrying about the controls.

I always used to enjoy watching the tcg, but I was never rich enough to play it (especially in the EX. days), but then Jwittz stopped talking about the tcg and the hype died down.

I'll happily have this on in the background while I play Awakening, but I'll be friggin' annoyed if another airbourne unit dies because I didn't see an archer/wind mage...
