Ben was showing off one of the final prototypes at Games for Health, well look boys and girls, here it is, a honest and true, built from the ground up, one handed PS2 / PS3 / PC controller. This is not a hacked together controller built in the basement of your friends house, this is a mass produced product, and they are taking pre-orders. Price $129.95

Here is the description

eDimensional and Ben Heckendorn have teamed up once again and created the Access Controller compatible with the Playstation 2, Playstation 3 and PC platforms. Allowing total control of games with one hand, the Access Controller represents a completely new way to play all of your favorite games. Featuring our unique, patented modular control design, each control function found on a regular gamepad (including analog sticks, D-Pad, shoulder buttons, face buttons, etc.) is accessible and built into it's own module. Even better, each module can easily be rearranged to suit any game style or need. Each module can be removed and replaced with a single hand and simply pops in and out. The concave design rests comfortably on a leg or a table and provides proper balance and resistance for optimal responsiveness.

Originally designed by the renown modder BenHeck, the Access Controller has already been featured in publications including Popular Science, Wired, Engadget, and dozens more newspapers, magazines, websites and television shows. Now, we're proud to be able to offer Ben's custom-made device as an official production-model gaming accessory.

The Access Controller utilizes 2.4 GHz wireless technology for added convenience.

Ben even includes detailed documentation for developing your own custom modules and accessories! (Advanced users only)

We are now accepting pre-orders for the first limited production run on a first-come, first-serve basis. You will not be charged until the item actually ships. Estimated delivery is 8-10 weeks. Please continue to check this page for updates and additional photos.

A portion of all proceeds and select number of reserved units will benefit Children's Hospital and Veterans Affairs Medical Centers.
