Fuck A / B, and X / Y being switched. And fuck confirm / back being swapped from XB1 and PS4 due to this.

That's how they've always been, it's the Xbox that fucked it up

Is there a 3rd party switch controller that's laid out like a dualshock?

Maybe, but Sony does it the same as MS so Nintendo is the one fucking people over by not changing. They don't even have to change the lettering. Just make the bottom button confirm and the right button back.

Sony has shapes for their buttons....


I'm not talking about the lettering. I'm talking about whatever the fuck button is at the bottom being confirm and the button on the right being back. IDGAF what you label those buttons.

Japan has the right button (circle on PS controllers) as confirm and the bottom button (x on PS controllers) as back.

Nintendo was first with their A/B/X/Y button layout with the release of the SNES when it launched in the early 90s. Go bitch at Microsoft for fucking up their controller instead.

All good points guys. It's still dumb though, we all know that the popular way to lay out confirm / back is how I said but Nintendo refuses to change. It doesn't matter who did it first or why it is like it is, they all need to decide one way and do it that way.

Are you talking about just games Sony makes? Or all games for PlayStation? Because I know I've played games where the circle (right) button was the default confirm. FF7 for example.

That was ps1. Ps3 and 4 isn't like that

It's not hard to remember which controller you're holding and which system you're playing.

It's unnecessary. I don't play my Switch nearly as much as the PS4 or XB1 so every time I play it I fuck up confirm / back for the first few menu selections. Sure, by the end of my session I have it down but that's not the point. The point is it should be the same.

I'm frustrated that mine decided to never connect to the Internet, even with a perfect signal. It used to just fine, then it just stopped. I generally have to use the "connect to Internet" option repeatedly for about an hour before it finally decides to. RIP Splatoon 2.

Most Japanese games make circle the default confirm button and cross the default cancel button. After the first coouple of years they started getting swapped over in the Western releases.

As should Nintendo.

Hell, at least make it a system option or something to reverse the buttons.

To this day, I screw up x and y on both Nintendo and Microsoft controllers. Damn I wish they were the same.

It's the other way for me. I confuse every time I play with an Xbox controller cuz I'm so used to A being on the right. It's the closest button to reach with my thumbs imo
