You actually see this kind of shit in tech bro spheres where they describe some "new groundbreaking invention" using terms like this when it's something we already have, but they're version is shittier.

Adam Something on Youtube has a saddening amount of videos on this sort of shit.

Oh my god, why does everything have to be x-punk? Game looks good, but what the fuck.

Heads up, you have your account flagged as a bot account. You probably want to switch that off in your account settings.

There's some more games that benefit from the extra power, like Smash Bros.

And if you're interested in emulating older systems on it, you'll need the extra power.

Not with that kind of attitude.

Good old "welfare cliff". It works this way with a lot of low income benefits.

Or speed. Some of the homebrew mods are ridiculous.

XCom and XCom 2 can be played entirely with the mouse. Minor typing if you want to name your soldiers, but nothing requires quick reflexes. Everything is turn based.

There's an older breakout style game on steam called Shatter that can be played entirely with the mouse and has a banger soundtrack and neat visual style.

Emulation opens up a lot of options for old school turn based games. RPGs, turn based strategy. Any of the Pokemon games gen 1-3 can be played one handed with some clever button mapping. Any game made to use just the Wii-mote as a pointer would also work, but I don't know those off the top of my head.

You might want to look into one handed controllers, or something like the FLIR USB dongle that you can use to map IR TV remote signals to keyboard button presses. Just need to use a remote that doesn't already control something.

It also depends on the system they're trying to emulate the style of. This would fit fine in the PS1 "Of Mana" game. Too complex for SNES, which is what most people probably assuming graphics like this are going for.

I would have loved AI to fill that need as well, but it's not an adequate tool for the job.
