I was playing Klonoa on my roommate's Wii when I noticed that apart from holding the remote sideways, it could use the nunchuk, but the set-up seemed weird to me given Klonoa's simple controls: Nunchuk for movement with A and B buttons for jumping and grabbing respectively. I mean, the nunchuk has the C and Z buttons, and it is possible to put both fingers on them and still hold the nunchuk comfortably (and my hands are big enough to manage the XBox's Duke controller, so that's something), so why not have an option to make the nunchuk the controller?
Then I remembered the one-handed controller for the original Playstation that ASCII made. I never got to pick one up because they were really hard to find. A few years later, on X-Play, Morgan and Adam were visiting a games store in Akihabara, and Morgan came across a one-handed controller for the PS2, and surprisingly sang their praises.
Sure, they're kind of useless for most action games or sports games, but traditional RPGs and strategy games... well, does menu navigation and command selection really need two hands?
