US 10,328,351 B2 · Videogame controller adapter

Abstract

A videogame controller adapter allows a user to modify how a videogame controller is grasped to increase comfort, increase reaction time, and reduce the excretion of moisture between the user's hand and the videogame controller. The videogame controller adapter includes a first controller grip mount and a first digit support. The first controller grip mount affixes to a handgrip of the videogame controller to directly support the videogame controller. The first digit support is placed between the user's digits and grasped by the user to support the present invention and the videogame controller. The first digit support is adjacently connected to the first controller grip mount. The first digit support is oriented away from the videogame controller in order to allow the user to grasp the videogame controller to allow for better positioning of the user's fingers over the buttons of the videogame controller, potentially increasing the user's reaction time.
