This is great that Xbox has made a commitment to gaming for everyone with this type of accessibility. However I do think the price is a little prohibitive giving the fact that the people who need these types of options usually have limited income. I would like to see a financial commitment as well.

It's an alternative to products like this; the accessible gaming scene has long been the domain of outrageously prices peripherals because the manufacturers deal in small mostly-custom orders and expect government/insurance assistance to pick up the tab. www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/17...

This is brilliant. Is it possible to connect two Xbox Adaptive Joysticks directly to a PC/console (to use for left and right hand controls)? Or do you have to connect them via the Xbox Adaptive Controller if you want to use more than one?

A few months back in got a chance to attend the GAConf in Redmond, and right after that I visited the Microsoft Inclusive Tech Lab. It was really amazing to see what is being done for all people to experience games if they can't use a Base Xbox Controller. Accessibility is important and needed.

UK calling - When will Design Lab be open for orders again ? It's been ages since the message saying "Xbox Design Lab purchases are temporarily on hold while we switch to a new payment platform..........." You're Microsoft, surely you can handle this - If not, ask Shopify for help.

I would see this type of controller in combination with a mouse on the right. As a hybrid kind of thing. I wonder if that would be possible (as in game recognizing it). The joystick would replace the keyboard. I always wanted to play with a mouse but i can't stand letters as D-Pad equivalent.
