ABSTRACT:
A video game stand facilitates utilization of a control mechanism (such as a steering wheel and steering column connected to a controller), making it easier to play the video game, and in some situations making a home video game much like an arcade game. A controller mounting platform has a substantially flat top surface and is supported by a mechanical support frame constructed so that the height of the platform from the floor may be readily adjusted. The video game control mechanism is positioned on the platform by cooperating hook and loop fasteners, an adapter having a cavity which securely fits a video game control mechanism, and/or an elastic or substantially inelastic belt. The mechanical support frame may be made from plastic or metal tubes, and include a substantially U-shaped base, a substantially U-shaped support, and a diagonal support, the central support slidably connected to the base by a first connection, the diagonal support pivotally connected to the base by a second connection, and the central support pivotally and slidably connected to the diagonal support by a third connection, such as a T-shaped tubular element having an opening aligned with openings on the diagonal support for receipt of an adjustment pin.
