A smiling boy sits in a chair wearing a blue striped shirt and a large, Nintendo Hands Free Controller strapped to his chest.

A few years earlier, in 1987, Nintendo's quarterly magazine made a huge unveiling: the "Nintendo Hands-Free Controller", the first game controller operated entirely by a user's breath control and neck/chin movements!

This device laid the groundwork for the modern adaptive controllers we see now.

On July 26, 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law, and the reason we celebrate Disability Pride in July! Since then, disability community and advocacy efforts have grown immensely, ultimately changing the world - and yes of course the games industry - for the better.
