4 Player Game that my Disabled MIL can play
Thank you to u/Gnarlzwhite for alerting me to this thread. Weekly gaming nights with the family sound wonderful, and I'm sure there are ways to make this work with her GVHD and limited hand dexterity. Let's just assume that holding a standard controller is out of the question. What is out there... F

XBOX Adaptive-controller and mouse
I do not know what your exact situation is, but for me, I have access to my left hand and left foot, which leaves me without a mouse on the right side. If you have a similar setup, it is definitely something to look into, and it can be a much cheaper route. To solve your problem regarding combining

Please help someone with arthritis :-) (Controller setup/ideas)

Adaptive controls for injury advice
Your best bet might be to look into something like the XBOX Adaptive Controller. It's a bit pricey even without all the add-ons, but it's probably the easiest way to customize a controller to fit you without using your right hand. You also might want to look up AngelusDemonus, known for his deep dun

What would be the least harmful system to play games on if I have nerve compression in my neck and shoulders down to my right arm?
You could also look at aftermarket options! The Hori split pad is basically a Switch Pro controller broken in half that can be used in the same way. Mobapad is also a solid brand. Since they're both "regular" controllers they don't have the same markup something like the XBOX adaptive controller doe

Midway's Pac-Man tweak, ambidexterity in control, seems to be historic.
A couple things about your direct comments and I'll try to only address your comments instead of going off into soliloquy. The hands-free NES controller was arguably, if you believe the conspiracy that the Japanese wanted to enforce left-handed movements on America as revenge for them winning pre-cr

EAC is blocking me from even launching Apex because of accessibility software
Xbox Adaptive Controller might be a solid, if pricy, work around.
