Flex Controller is made by Pretorian Technologies and it’s a new and exciting addition to the disabled gaming community that allows gamers to use external switches and joysticks to play video games on Nintendo Switch. Flex Controller may also be used for gaming on a Windows 10 PC. 

Any switches that terminate in a 3.5mm jack plug may be used. The joysticks, if required, need to be Optima Joysticks or one of the compatible Hori controllers .
