Akaki PS4 One Handed Attachment
Akaki One-Handed DualShock 4 Attachment
Version 2.0, available in left-handed and right-handed versions. The illustrations depict the right-handed version, and the left-handed version is identical in shape and function but mirrored. The device comes with button labels (arrows or OX depending on handedness), rubber bands, bottom half, top half, leg strap clip, and leg strap.
Components
- Bottom half
- Top half
- Leg strap clip
- Leg strap
- Button labels (arrows or ΔOX depending on handedness)
- Rubber bands
Attaching the device
- Insert your controller into the cradle of the attachment bottom half. The headphone socket at the front of the controller goes in first. Make sure the shoulder button extension is aligned with the shoulder buttons.
- Push the rear of the controller into the attachment until the lip clicks in the groove between the controller body and the touchpad. Close the stick-mover linkage on top.
- To attach the top half, align the rectangular tab with the detent at the rear of the attachment, then close the latch in front.
How to use
Rest the rubberized roller on a surface or your lap and move the controller up, down, left, and right to move the second thumbstick. Push on the button extensions to access the buttons on the other side. Hold the controller in place and push down on the paddle to click down on the stick (R3/L3).
The circular symbols on the face button extensions indicate which face button they push. For example, the extension corresponds to the topmost face button — the Up arrow in the right-handed version and the Triangle in the left-handed version.
Removing the device
Remove the attachment in reverse order. Lift the lip at the front of the controller up to remove the top half. Open the stick-moving linkage by pulling on the eject tab. Pull the part near the top of the touchpad away from the controller to remove the bottom half and slide the controller out.
Leg strap
Feed the strap through the leg strap clip and tie the strap around your leg. The pegs in the clip click onto the holes in the roller at the bottom of the attachment.
Increasing thumbstick tension
To increase the centering force on the stick, you can stretch a rubber band or two around the hooks at the bottom of the attachment. One rubber band doubled over two or three times gives a good amount of tension.
Button labels
The device comes with optional button labels. If you wish, you can cut them off of the connecting runner and glue them into the button extensions with a drop of CA glue. Try out different button mappings first before deciding on what order you wish to place them.

Notes
You can remap the buttons in PlayStation’s accessibility settings.
Depending on the game, you may find it more comfortable to map ΔOX to the
shoulder buttons, for example. Try swapping the left and right sticks’
functions to see which way is more intuitive for you.
