A controller system for surfacing selectable elements on a display of the controller along with game content associated with a video game is described. In an example, a user may provide touch input on the display, and, in response, a game content window that is presenting the game content may scale and/or move to a new position on the display in order to create space on the display for presenting one or more selectable elements outside of the scaled and/or repositioned game content window. The surfaced element(s) may be selectable to cause performance of a game-related action. In this manner, the selectable element(s) do(es) not occlude the game content, and the user may interact with both the game content and the selectable element(s) presented on the display.

A handheld controller may include controls that are actuatable by a user. The handheld controller may further include one or more sensors that are configured to detect an object in proximity to certain controls, and/or that sense a grip or position of a hand on a handle portion of the controller. Based on data from a sensor(s), certain controls may be enabled and/or disabled. The sensors may therefore be used to determine which controls are being used or are intended to be used, and/or which controls are likely accessible or inaccessible to the user based on sensor data, and to cause one or more controls of the handheld controller to be enabled and/or disabled accordingly.

An accessibility computer game controller includes a central control button on a round base and peripheral control buttons on the base surrounding the central control button. The peripheral control buttons can have distinct sizes and shapes. An analog stick unit is reciprocatingly engaged with the base and includes a control portion rotatable relative to the base.

A video game controller adapter for holding a display of a portable video game system is provided. The base easily snaps on to a controller using a controller attachment device, thereby holding the display the portable gaming system above the controller in handheld mode. The bottom of the base is flat and designed to balance on a level surface to allow for a tabletop mode. This is especially useful for multiplayer gaming. In tabletop mode, the adapter allows plenty of space beneath the charging port to allow the user to plug in their device during game play.
