The Possibility of Support Based on Game Operation Methods by Genre and Play Cases of Gamers with Upper Limb Disabilities

Abstract

To understand the operation methods in consumer games, we investigated the buttons on various game controllers and their main assigned functions by genre using the "Game Operation Method Check Items". Furthermore, we interviewed gamers with upper limb disabilities to gather information on their play methods and needs. This report explores the possibility of support based on game operation methods by genre and play cases of gamers with upper limb disabilities.
