allows one-handed play.\u00a0He simply clings to the joystick, after which the player can hold the controller in his right hand and use the left stick, balancing it on the hip or flat surface.\u00a0Such an adapter will be useful for people who, for some reason, cannot use both hands at the same time.<\/p>\n<div id=\"g1-fluid-wrapper-counter-1\" class=\"g1-fluid-wrapper \"
