    Wouldn't think the icons at the top would be touch sensitive, how's that accessible with no tactile feedback?

    Well, if it helps those with accessibility issues, I'm all in favour.

    From the picture, I don't quite get it, but then, I'm not the target market. If it really helps those that are, then good on you, whoever did it.

    Or maybe they are just about to release Konami's Track & Field for the Xbox

    BBC video on this. Looks great, really flexibly and will open doors to gaming for a lot of people. Hats of to Microsoft for developing this, no one was forcing them to. Over to you Sony (and Nintendo).

    It looks like those are just icons above various ports allowing the user to plug in alternative control methods which will remap the various L/R triggers, button functions. It can be seen more in the video link that jimbouk posted.

    The official product page with further information about this product for PC and Xbox is now live. You can also watch the product demonstration video, embedded below.



    "Designed primarily to meet the needs of gamers with limited mobility, the Xbox Adaptive Controller is a unified hub for devices that help make gaming more accessible. Connect external devices such as switches, buttons, mounts, and joysticks to create a custom controller experience that is uniquely yours. Button, thumbstick, and trigger inputs are controlled with assistive devices (sold separately) connected through 3.5mm jacks and USB ports."
