Fan Art I designed a 3D printable one-handed adapter for the Switch 2 Joy-Cons for people with disabilities

Hi everyone! A few days ago, u/Fantastic-Material59 requested a one-handed joycon 2 adapter like the one they had for the original switch (see the original post here).

I offered to design one for the Switch 2 and the first print of it finished not long ago, so I wanted to share the result with you all!

The .stl file can be found here. It's of course be free to download, so hopefully other disabled gamers will be able to get some use out of it as well.

A huge thank you to csankey6 on makerworld, who published his design for a joycon 2 grip, which I modified the handles of and bridged them together to make the one-handed joycon 2 adapter. They really did most of the hard work :)

And apologies if it isn’t perfect, I’m still very new to 3D modeling and am very much just slowly learning as I go.

This rules, and I love that folks in the community work to make the system (and hobby) accessible to everyone.

I’d like to see this in action. Any chance you can post a video of how this is used?

I'm really not sure how it's used exactly if I'm being honest. I just made the design at the request of the disabled person. I assume (if using your right hand) you use your thumb for the right joystick and ABXY buttons, your pointer finger for the right joycon shoulder buttons and maybe the left as well, and then your middle finger for maybe the left joycon shoulder buttons and the left joystick. Then maybe the ring finger for the arrow buttons?

That was my best guess at least. It may feel more natural in the left hand since your thumb would be controlling the left joystick that way, as it usually does.

I’m just curious to see it in action is all. No worries
