			<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">One-handed Controller, Joy-Con, and A Lot Of Consoles!</span><br />
<br />
I still like controllers quite a lot,<br />
Especially the smaller ones I’ve got.<br />
But many are often too big for me,<br />
Since I only play with one hand, you see.<br />
<br />
There are many controllers I could install,<br />
But honestly, I don’t use most of them at all.<br />
Two-handed controllers are hard for me to use,<br />
And they don’t really give me many to choose.<br />
<br />
Controllers with buttons on the back<br />
Are something my setup seems to lack.<br />
They aren’t useful for the way I play,<br />
So I need a small controller that works my way.<br />
<br />
I use a left one-handed controller instead,<br />
Because my right hand has no feeling, as I said.<br />
My fingers there cannot really feel at all,<br />
So I rely on the left side to answer the call.<br />
<br />
I once tried a large one-handed controller before,<br />
But it wasn’t something I really adore.<br />
Instead I use a Joy-Con controller today,<br />
And it fits my hand in a much better way!<br />
<br />
I also bought a Joy-Con rail to hold it tight,<br />
And for a while it worked just right.<br />
But over time it started to drift,<br />
So I had to replace it pretty swift.<br />
<br />
I don’t like moving the controller around,<br />
So I adjust it so it stays firmly bound.<br />
I also use adapters here and there,<br />
Though most of them just sit as spare.<br />
Some need to be held down tight<br />
So I can play my games just right.<br />
<br />
One setup used a webcam mount,<br />
And it was tricky, no small amount.<br />
Sometimes the webcam slips away,<br />
And I must adjust it again to play.<br />
<br />
I have many consoles now, it’s true,<br />
So let me tell their stories to you.<br />
<br />
I bought a PlayStation 2 long ago,<br />
And I still have it, as you may know.<br />
I played Final Fantasy X with pride,<br />
And beat the game by its journey’s side.<br />
<br />
I also had memory cards to save the day,<br />
Back when that was the normal way.<br />
But now it’s hard for me to recall<br />
Things from 2013 and before at all.<br />
<br />
Later I bought a PlayStation 3,<br />
And played Final Fantasy X again happily.<br />
But the final boss stopped my run,<br />
And beating it has yet to be done.<br />
<br />
Sometimes I restart on consoles anew,<br />
Hoping the victory will finally come through.<br />
One day I know I will win that fight,<br />
And defeat that final boss at last in sight.<br />
<br />
Then I bought a PlayStation 4,<br />
But the controller was hard to use once more.<br />
So I bought a one-handed controller small,<br />
To make the gameplay easier overall.<br />
<br />
It works quite well, though not all the time,<br />
The analog stick needs fixing sometimes.<br />
It still needs repairs, that much is clear,<br />
Because it doesn’t always work very well here.<br />
<br />
So I also use my PC instead,<br />
With a huge game library ahead.<br />
On Steam I now have 1,112 games to see,<br />
Which is honestly crazy to me!<br />
I still play there now and then,<br />
Exploring different worlds again.<br />
<br />
I once bought an Xbox One to try,<br />
But these days I mostly let it lie.<br />
<br />
Then I bought a Nintendo Switch one day,<br />
And it works very well for the way I play.<br />
The SD card gives it extra space,<br />
Which helps my game library keep its place.<br />
<br />
I bought Ring Fit Adventure for fun and play,<br />
But my other hand struggled along the way.<br />
I played it for a while and it felt quite good,<br />
Though tight on my right hand where it stood.<br />
Later I had surgery on that hand,<br />
And now my fingers open as planned.<br />
But I’m not sure if I’ll play it again someday,<br />
We’ll just have to see how things go my way.<br />
<br />
These days I mostly buy games digital instead,<br />
Downloading them straight ahead.<br />
I’ve downloaded Final Fantasy X many times,<br />
Across consoles, systems, and gaming lines!<br />
<br />
Right now I have 84 games to play,<br />
Which is a lot in every way.<br />
Sometimes it’s hard to finish them all,<br />
With so many adventures waiting to call!<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I’ll start again strong,<br />
Perhaps with Hollow Knight: Silksong.<br />
I’ve beaten at least 8 bosses there,<br />
But the Last Judge fight is quite unfair.<br />
Now the challenge is harder to survive,<br />
Because hits now take two hearts from my life!<br />
<br />
I also bought a PlayStation 5,<br />
And ordered it late at midnight online.<br />
Best Buy approved it right away,<br />
Though I had to wait for delivery day.<br />
Now I use it all the time,<br />
Playing games whenever I find the time!<br />
<br />
I bought Demon’s Souls for the PS5 too,<br />
But the controller makes it hard to do.<br />
The PS5 controller is tough for me to hold,<br />
So I needed another solution bold.<br />
<br />
I searched online and soon I found<br />
A Cronus Zen that worked around!<br />
I installed the Windows app to map controls,<br />
Helping me reach my gaming goals.<br />
<br />
I like it a lot, it works quite well,<br />
And remapping buttons feels like a spell!<br />
Though strangely there’s no official app now,<br />
Which is a bit confusing somehow.<br />
<br />
So I mostly use the Joy-Con today,<br />
Because it works best for the way I play.<br />
Connecting the PS5 controller can be tough,<br />
But I wrote a guide if you need that stuff.<br />
You can find it on my website there,<br />
If you’re curious and want to share.<br />
<br />
I bought an Xbox Series S too,<br />
But I don’t use it like I used to do.<br />
Sometimes I bring it to Mommom’s place,<br />
Just to watch TV at a slower pace.<br />
Eventually I sold it at GameStop one day,<br />
And got some money back that way.<br />
<br />
I bought a few PS5 games to try,<br />
Some were good, some passed me by.<br />
<br />
One was Ghost of Yōtei to explore,<br />
But I didn’t like it very much anymore.<br />
The touchscreen features got in my way,<br />
And that’s not how I like to play.<br />
Since I use a Joy-Con instead of that screen,<br />
The feature didn’t work as it should have been.<br />
So I sold it on eBay before too long,<br />
And thankfully nothing went very wrong.<br />
<br />
I also bought Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater,<br />
A remake that looked even neater.<br />
I played a little but not the whole game,<br />
Finishing it later is still my aim.<br />
<br />
I bought Trails in the Sky: First Chapter as well,<br />
But it didn’t really cast a spell.<br />
So once again on eBay it went,<br />
And that’s where the copy was sent.<br />
<br />
I also bought an Oblivion T-shirt with pride,<br />
With the Deluxe Edition ordered beside.<br />
But sadly the game never arrived that day,<br />
So I asked for a refund along the way.<br />
GameStop gave me a gift card instead,<br />
So I bought it digital as I had said.<br />
<br />
I bought Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition,<br />
but I played it on Steam instead.<br />
The story feels more advanced than on the PS5,<br />
though I’ve been lazy and haven’t played in a while, I must confess.<br />
<br />
Then I bought an Xbox Series X at last,<br />
A heavy beast built strong and fast.<br />
<br />
I beat Elden Ring and the DLC too,<br />
But Spirit Ashes help me make it through.<br />
Because playing solo is harder to do,<br />
So I use what tools help me push through!<br />
<br />
Anyway, that’s all for now from me,<br />
But I’ll come back again eventually!]]></description>

Some need to be held down tight<br />
So I can play my games just right.<br />
<br />
One setup used a webcam mount,<br />
And it was tricky, no small amount.<br />
Sometimes the webcam slips away,<br />
And I must adjust it again to play.<br />
<br />
I have many consoles now, it’s true,<br />
So let me tell their stories to you.<br />
<br />
I bought a PlayStation 2 long ago,<br />
And I still have it, as you may know.<br />
I played Final Fantasy X with pride,<br />
And beat the game by its journey’s side.<br />
<br />
I also had memory cards to save the day,<br />
Back when that was the normal way.<br />
But now it’s hard for me to recall<br />
Things from 2013 and before at all.<br />
<br />
Later I bought a PlayStation 3,<br />
And played Final Fantasy X again happily.<br />
But the final boss stopped my run,<br />
And beating it has yet to be done.<br />
<br />
Sometimes I restart on consoles anew,<br />
Hoping the victory will finally come through.<br />
One day I know I will win that fight,<br />
And defeat that final boss at last in sight.<br />
<br />
Then I bought a PlayStation 4,<br />
But the controller was hard to use once more.<br />
So I bought a one-handed controller small,<br />
To make the gameplay easier overall.<br />
<br />
It works quite well, though not all the time,<br />
The analog stick needs fixing sometimes.<br />
It still needs repairs, that much is clear,<br />
Because it doesn’t always work very well here.<br />
<br />
So I also use my PC instead,<br />
With a huge game library ahead.<br />
On Steam I now have 1,112 games to see,<br />
Which is honestly crazy to me!<br />
I still play there now and then,<br />
Exploring different worlds again.<br />
<br />
I once bought an Xbox One to try,<br />
But these days I mostly let it lie.<br />
<br />
Then I bought a Nintendo Switch one day,<br />
And it works very well for the way I play.<br />
The SD card gives it extra space,<br />
Which helps my game library keep its place.<br />
<br />
I bought Ring Fit Adventure for fun and play,<br />
But my other hand struggled along the way.<br />
I played it for a while and it felt quite good,<br />
Though tight on my right hand where it stood.<br />
Later I had surgery on that hand,<br />
And now my fingers open as planned.<br />
But I’m not sure if I’ll play it again someday,<br />
We’ll just have to see how things go my way.<br />
<br />
These days I mostly buy games digital instead,<br />
Downloading them straight ahead.<br />
I’ve downloaded Final Fantasy X many times,<br />
Across consoles, systems, and gaming lines!<br />
<br />
Right now I have 84 games to play,<br />
Which is a lot in every way.<br />
Sometimes it’s hard to finish them all,<br />
With so many adventures waiting to call!<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I’ll start again strong,<br />
Perhaps with Hollow Knight: Silksong.<br />
I’ve beaten at least 8 bosses there,<br />
But the Last Judge fight is quite unfair.<br />
Now the challenge is harder to survive,<br />
Because hits now take two hearts from my life!<br />
<br />
I also bought a PlayStation 5,<br />
And ordered it late at midnight online.<br />
Best Buy approved it right away,<br />
Though I had to wait for delivery day.<br />
Now I use it all the time,<br />
Playing games whenever I find the time!<br />
<br />
I bought Demon’s Souls for the PS5 too,<br />
But the controller makes it hard to do.<br />
The PS5 controller is tough for me to hold,<br />
So I needed another solution bold.<br />
<br />
I searched online and soon I found<br />
A Cronus Zen that worked around!<br />
I installed the Windows app to map controls,<br />
Helping me reach my gaming goals.<br />
<br />
I like it a lot, it works quite well,<br />
And remapping buttons feels like a spell!<br />
Though strangely there’s no official app now,<br />
Which is a bit confusing somehow.<br />
<br />
So I mostly use the Joy-Con today,<br />
Because it works best for the way I play.<br />
Connecting the PS5 controller can be tough,<br />
But I wrote a guide if you need that stuff.<br />
You can find it on my website there,<br />
If you’re curious and want to share.<br />
<br />
I bought an Xbox Series S too,<br />
But I don’t use it like I used to do.<br />
Sometimes I bring it to Mommom’s place,<br />
Just to watch TV at a slower pace.<br />
Eventually I sold it at GameStop one day,<br />
And got some money back that way.<br />
<br />
I bought a few PS5 games to try,<br />
Some were good, some passed me by.<br />
<br />
One was Ghost of Yōtei to explore,<br />
But I didn’t like it very much anymore.<br />
The touchscreen features got in my way,<br />
And that’s not how I like to play.<br />
Since I use a Joy-Con instead of that screen,<br />
The feature didn’t work as it should have been.<br />
So I sold it on eBay before too long,<br />
And thankfully nothing went very wrong.<br />
<br />
I also bought Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater,<br />
A remake that looked even neater.<br />
I played a little but not the whole game,<br />
Finishing it later is still my aim.<br />
<br />
I bought Trails in the Sky: First Chapter as well,<br />
But it didn’t really cast a spell.<br />
So once again on eBay it went,<br />
And that’s where the copy was sent.<br />
<br />
I also bought an Oblivion T-shirt with pride,<br />
With the Deluxe Edition ordered beside.<br />
But sadly the game never arrived that day,<br />
So I asked for a refund along the way.<br />
GameStop gave me a gift card instead,<br />
So I bought it digital as I had said.<br />
<br />
I bought Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition,<br />
but I played it on Steam instead.<br />
The story feels more advanced than on the PS5,<br />
though I’ve been lazy and haven’t played in a while, I must confess.<br />
<br />
Then I bought an Xbox Series X at last,<br />
A heavy beast built strong and fast.<br />
<br />
I beat Elden Ring and the DLC too,<br />
But Spirit Ashes help me make it through.<br />
Because playing solo is harder to do,<br />
So I use what tools help me push through!<br />
<br />
Anyway, that’s all for now from me,<br />
But I’ll come back again eventually!]]></content:encoded>

I should maybe start putting my stuff, my work, into the section for gaining critique. I was scared of getting it but i feel thiis is an OK place to get some feedback since i find you guys very friendly and positive. So i startet to crave attention and hearing about it when its was offered with such a spirit. Like a fresh breathe of air! What do you guys think so far about those small poems i have been warming up with?]]></description>
