With that first Versatility prototype, Mark introduced the concept of mapping the human ability to the game designer's intent in a low-tech way that required no special skills and could be easily reconfigured from one game to another by a non-technical caregiver or grandmother while allowing for complete customization to each individual's abilities and even preferences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 28-year-old young man confined to bed from Duchesne Muscular Dystrophy who went by the handle Kit online, was the 1st user of the 1st Versatility prototype in 2008. When he posted an unabashed video of himself lying in bed, very tiny and frail playing online anonymously and winning his video went viral and became the\u0026amp;nbsp; 4th most popular post on the PlayStation Network ever.\u0026amp;nbsp; In the video he was using only the slightest movements of 1 finger, a big toe, winking his eyes, moving the joysticks with his tongue, and pushing his tongue up against the inside walls of his cheeks to activate two more light touch lever switches, while blowing on a straw. He loved that the Versatility allowed him to play ANY game on ANY console \"nearly competitive with my Pro-gamer friends\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLater in 2010, an advocate brought Mark's Versatility v2 and Ultimate Arcade v2 to Redmond, WA inspired Microsoft employees in 2010 who eventually pitched the idea in 2015 which became the 2018 release of the Microsoft Xbox Adaptive Controller and later the Hori Adaptive Controller for Nintendo Switch.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"DCC4B91E_F000_DDF7_CEEF_BD9FB5C11F53\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadened Horizons","offers":[{"title":"Single Joystick - for Xbox Adaptive Controller","offer_id":41971000410230,"sku":"","price":3504.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true},{"title":"Single Joystick + 8 Switch Expansion Box","offer_id":39862346874998,"sku":"1925.x","price":3895.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true},{"title":"Twin Joysticks - for Xbox Adaptive Controller","offer_id":41971000442998,"sku":"","price":6439.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":false},{"title":"Twin Joysticks + Two 8 Switch Expansion Boxes - for PC or all systems with Titan II","offer_id":39862346907766,"sku":"1926.x","price":7027.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":false},{"title":"MD \/ SMA Twin Joysticks + Mount + 8 Switches Bundle","offer_id":39862351888502,"sku":"","price":11156.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 Ability Switch Expansion Box (one per joystick) + 7 secondary 'shift' button functions","offer_id":42285526483062,"sku":"","price":587.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1596\/7647\/files\/Versatility_v5_Dual_Hall-Effect_Micro_Lip_or_Fingertip_Joystick.jpg?v=1723320003","url":"https:\/\/assistive.tech\/products\/versatility5","provider":"Inclusive Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
