Pretty cool device for accessibility. There is a great interview with Phil Spencer at the end of the video about why they are doing this.

As a father of two boys that have Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, this makes me very happy and excited.

Knowing the thrill I get from gaming with my own kids, the AG mission is near and dear to me. Nobody should be held back from gaming due to physical challenges. I plan to do some work with AG myself, initially just fundraising through streaming campaigns, but also in-person at events in the DC area.
That said, if anyone would be interested in donating, or participating in a streaming fundraiser for AbleGamers, let me know. I've set up a Tiltify account for this purpose. I've talked with a few people and decided the first one will be a Deep Rock Galactic session, but I've been hoping that if that's successful, we might whip up support within B.org for something like a Halo:MCC party. I'm sure we could drum up 16 players to fill out BtB or Customs; and I think there's good odds on raising a few bucks.

I'd be up for this.

And about the controller, it's awesome, and I say that as an Apple fanboi who hated Microsoft for many years (after I stopped hating IBM). Microsoft earns great respect from me with this kind of endeavor.
Would love to have you, Kerm!

The squad for the DRG run is already full up, but raising money for AG is going to be a thing for me, so I'll keep you posted on what's next.

Seriously, let me know what you need and I'll see what I can do.
Awesome!!

Will do! This is going to be a learning process for me from the streaming/hosting standpoint; but I'm open to all pointers and feedback.

Count me in for some MCC, and if it's for a good cause, count HBO in to get people aware!
