FAQ
Can I customize my GAME Kit?
Yes! When we reach out to confirm your order, there will be an option to include add-ons such as training and extra gear.
What happens if a device breaks in my GAME Kit?
Please contact us at info@makersmakingchange.com and we’ll determine if it's best to send a replacement device or part.
What is the compatibility of the GAME Kits?
All assistive switches are compatible with the Xbox Adaptive Controller, Sony Access Controller, and Hori Flex Controller. All joysticks are compatible with the Xbox Adaptive Controller, and all analog joysticks (Oak, Spruce, Aspen) are compatible with the Sony Access Controller. However, joysticks don’t work with the Hori Flex, and any USB joysticks (Ivy, Cedar) cannot connect directly to the Sony Access Controller since it has no USB ports.
Does a GAME Kit come with training to become a GAME Checkpoint?
No, purchasing a GAME Kit doesn’t make you a GAME Checkpoint. To become a GAME Checkpoint, please contact info@makersmakingchange.com. GAME Checkpoints are adaptive gaming spaces that receive gear, training, and can connect with the broader community of other Checkpoints.
How much does a GAME Kit cost?
After you request a GAME Kit, a Makers Making Change team member will reach out to provide pricing details. If you're interested in moving forward, we'll send an invoice.
