Left Hook

Idea 61968 | Posted in DUALSHOCK 3, Hardware by BigBoy_Oh | September 5, 2012

Hey, I’d like to suggest PS3 controllers for lefties. I’m a right hand man but was thinking perhaps, southpaws would prefer one made specifically for them? Maybe do a trial run to gauge interest?

PS Controllers are symmetrical already. A left handed controller would simply reverse inputs.

The only difference would be the D-pad and the X, Circle, triangle, square buttons being swapped. most games already support being able to swap the joystick configurations around. If anything they should force more games to have full mapping customization.
