Quadriplegic's Adaptive Gaming Set Up! (W/ Gameplay)

[@emceeunderdogrising]

Everyone is going to mention how great the adaptive controller is. But all I can think about is how much he's killing it on COD.

[@MarauderYT]

I mean, that performance IS at testament to how well the controller works!

[@PipeJM117]

It's a pro of COD, eh.

[@alarikmarcus]

Right? I came here to check this thing out and now I'm wondering how many times I've had my ass kicked in games by someone with a lot less mobility than me.

This is why I like xbox/Microsoft they have programs to help people with disabilities play . Keep up the videos also happy holidays

[@James29440]

Logitech created this not microsoft.

[@emceeunderdogrising]

@@James29440 Logitech created the kit that comes with it. The main controller is from Microsoft. They designed it to work for all sorts of different adaptive equipment already available. They also marketed it. It's also not going to be sold to that many people so they lost money on this. This is not profitable at what they are selling it for. So they do deserve a ton of credit here. They suck. But in this case they didn't suck at all.

[@supazio]

Honestly if you had put that game up as a gameplay video, no one would know you were shooting from your mouth. Very nice work, glad you're able to get back to gaming.

[@LadyDonegan]

Thank you so much for showing your set up. I appreciate it. I got an Xbox with the adaptive controller. I haven’t played it yet because I’m in the process of moving and seeing your set up really encourages me. Thank you so much.

[@JP-fr6by]

Your actually pretty decent for just starting to use the controller, i know for a fact youll greatly improve over time

[@decaturdon]

Everyone deserves some fun and relaxation! I'm glad this works for you. Enjoy your new system.

[@Virusman26]

Thank you so much for your video. My brother was diagnosed with MND, and has had to give up video games after 30 years of playing. I've been looking into the adaptive controller as a way for him to get back into it. Your video has helped massively, thank you so much! Oh, and you're an absolute animal on CoD!!!

[@Couyon-fw8ez]

Great video, You hit on all the points that I based my choice of gaming console on. Being disabled and out of gaming for year's I looked around at all the systems, ps4, switch, and Xbox. I chose the Xbox for myself because of how adaptive it is. And if I ever need the adaptive controllers I have that option. Keep gaming and doing you brother.

[@northernshark1579]

If your an C5 Quad like me, playing pubg mobile on an iPad Pro works better imo than an adaptive controller.I hope Microsoft and Sony can built something to enable players to use their tablet as a controller too, and not just as a remote for a secondary screen.

[@Deucebaby4life]

My brother is in wheel chair and same disability as you, thanks so much for this review! Gonna buy him a system and this controller now 😁 keep on keeping on my friend!

[@northernshark1579]

I’m an C5 and mostly play pubg mobile on an iPad Pro.The customizations options in setting up the buttons to your preferences has made my gaming experience performance equally good as able people. Give me your email so I can send you pics of my setup.

[@Fuzz16]

Thanks so much for this video! I had been trying to getting a better sense of the options that the Xbox Adaptive Controller would allow me to have. Hearing you talk about your experience with the controller, showing your personal set up in a thorough manner, and then some game play of it all in action was very helpful

[@thomasmilburn199]

Bro has the grind for gaming! I can't respect anything more than that. Nerds are the best! Glad you are back into gaming bro!

[@fofo_888]

I follow you from Iraq Greetings to you

[@drottle]

My dad works for Microsoft and when he heard about the development and sale of the Adaptive controller it made him really proud. I’m glad you can still game!

[@dr1980]

Awesome set up man, I am a quadriplegic like yourself, I’ve been playing a lot of call of duty mobile lately on an iPad/Android. I don’t know if you have already, but if you haven’t I’d give it a shot. It’s great, and you can use auto fire, and/or adjust the buttons to where you need them.

[@northernshark1579]

Hey bro, I’m an C5 Quad also playing mobile gaming. I mostly play pubg on my iPad Pro and feel like I’m just as good with it like before my accident. Your right the adjustment option of the buttons makes it so amazing.I could get 4-5 kills on average and 12 with my most kills.

[@kidspyfer3018]

My baby brother has downs and video games have always been a big thing in our house and when he gets a little older I'm going to put one of these together for him

Hi, Zack! I´m a member of AbleGamers in Brazil and have been supporting the cause for a few years now. Great video! thanks for sharing these solutions.

[@northernshark1579]

Hey bro, can you reach out to PS and Xbox if they can build something to use an tablet as an controller also? I play pubg on my iPad Pro and I feel my gaming experience is way easier and smoother than an adaptive controller.I’m an C5

[@chrizeba]

@@northernshark1579 this is very interesting. I'll reach out to our team about this.

[@northernshark1579]

@@chrizeba , one more thing, I like that light touch button at 2:10 zack was referring to as his shooting button, I would like that implemented into an iPad battle royal mobile gaming gener.I just purchased an gaming PC though.I will try and upload my games on pubg mobile.

[@northernshark1579]

That light touch button in my mouth for shooting would totally improve my gaming experience.I’ve been looking high and low for a device like that, too bad it don’t work for iPads or other tablets though.

Thanks for posting this. Gives me hope and motivation 🙏🏿

[@reincarnationentertainment9885]

I only have my left arm and I play games too (mouse with lots of buttons and foot pedals and/or the Evil Controller). I was extremely inspired by this. Thanks. PS I never thought of using my mouth to fire. I'll get the Xbox Adaptive Gaming Kit for my PC.

[@brettb154]

First comment! Hi zack! Merry Christmas and happy new year. Love your gaming set up!

[@GhostsQueen85]

Mad props to all you guys who can actually figure this thing out lol I am not an Xbox owner unfortunately 😞 (ps4 here lol) I had to buy an adapter made by Brook called the wingman converter so I can use my adaptive equipment along with a 1 handed wii controller, (had to buy a converter adapter for that) and a 3D Rudder (foot controller) and let me tell you this is going to be a huge and I mean HUGE learning curve for me because I've gamed for pretty much a little over 30 years with hand held controllers 😲

[@daledimidome5519]

Bet you’re a pro on it now!

[@reginaldbowls7180]

Dude you’re way better than I am at COD!! And I have have full function of my hands! This is an outstanding video 👍

[@alexn.t.6344]

Great video. I have suffering from RSI since 2010, so i bought the adaptive controller, and it works wonderful. It really gives you options for customization. You can really play whatever you want with this thing, no problems at all.

[@foo2hp]

Do you still use this controller?

[@alexn.t.6344]

@@foo2hp Yes I do actually. Everyday. Now using it plus the Logitech Adaptive -Gaming Kit for street fighter 6. I look a little bit weird using all the stuff, but works like a charm and is quite useful to prevent new injuries. Use the XAC with my left foot, and the aditional logitech buttons (2) with my right foot. Also, use and additional button with my mouth. The rest is mapped to the elite series 2 controller according my "pain needs".

[@teneesh3376]

With accessibility, I would have loved if Microsoft embraced gyro on their series consoles. Not only for gyro aiming users like me, but it would have been great for some people with one hand. They would be able to move and shoot with one hand if Microsoft had it. Instead they did more of the same, which is beyond disappointing. I mean I have two fully functional hands so I don't have to worry about it. But I can't stop thinking about the massive missed potential Microsoft had

[@emmiemiranda8944]

Hi Zack. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to u & your family. Love it.

[@7thangelad586]

I’m a C5 quad and adore gaming, so I was curious how the adaptive controller works. I use an arcade style fight stick, but I still can’t play games that use two joysticks and a d-pad (most newer console games). Awesome video, thanks for showing us!

[@RRRREALbadman]

There are some joysticks that have 2 buttons each which can add up to 4, maybe give that a go?

[@northernshark1579]

I’m a C5 quad too, but I play on my iPad only. I play pubg using an iPad Pro, and I think the customization options on the on controls or interface is much more easier and effective than this adaptive controls IMO.

So I have recently got the Xbox adaptive controller and have ran into a problem. Whenever I am at the home screen I am able to use my joystick on my controller to navigate around the Home Screen, but whenever I get into a game it won't let me use my joy sticks to navigate around the menu and makes me use my d pad. Has anyone ran into this problem or know how to fix it?

I'm wondering if something like this will help me? I have small fiber neuropathy in both of my hands and it gets very uncomfortable and painful for me just to even hold the controller or click any buttons for an extended period of time. I've also become very depressed since the year before last when this first started because I can't game nearly as much as I used to 💔 so I'm looking for something I can use where I don't have to be gripping a controller constantly.

Amazing setup, main problem I see is the price, it’s a little bit expensive overall on Amazon, but I think it worths the price

[@nexusyang4832]

Considering what else is out there the value proposition is actually very reasonable. Also, it can be used for productivity and not just gaming so it can really change someone's life outside of just playing games. MS also have other accessibility accessories now as well that can be extended through native controls within the OS. Worth checking out if you are interested.

[@jellowrock]

@@nexusyang4832 These devices are amazing, I think they can even expand any person capabilities for work and/or other things, I would love seeing Microsoft and other companies investing more on this so the price can be more affordable so we could get more diverse applications

Hey Zack! I wanted to ask how you got started with all of this? I am paralyzed myself, and also pretty blind… So it’s very tricky but God dammit I want to get back into gaming! Do you have any tips on where to start or who to talk to? I’m going to see if Able GamerZ can help out in Canada or if there’s something similar up here. I wanted to know, For the adaptive controller, if I can’t use the joystick are there bigger arcade style joysticks that I could use? Or perhaps even a steering wheel would be even better! I’m also wondering how many accessible games you’ve come across on the Xbox 10? I’m not into shooting games so it’s hard to find ones that work for blind people. Before I lost most of my vision I enjoyed things like Minecraft, undertale, , Oxygen not included, Subnautica, Cuphead, Detroit become human and other story/sandbox games! I’m also super interested in the HTC Vive but I don’t think that’s possible. Any info and help is awesome and incredibly helpful! Thanks for doing these videos, they really help keep my spirits up and introduced me to all of these cool gadgets that people say don’t exist for me. Again you’re doing great dude, keep it up :)
