    Interestingly, the Playstation one officially isn't the letter X, it's "Cross" according to Sony. But pretty much no one ever actually uses that name.

    Sony (via PS5) also finally standardized X Accept and O Back globally. It was backwards in Japan because X meant No and O meant Yes.

      The Microsoft layout being the standard messes me up every time. The SNES layout was seared into my brain 34 years ago. Sony's is different enough that I don't get confused.

        Make it standard to choose button prompts in every game. It's really not asking much.

            I find myself having to use my Switch pro controller when playing Wii U games on PC, because if I use my Xbox controller I get fucked up on button locations. But somehow holding the slightly different controller shape and button size makes my muscle memory switch for it cleanly.

              It's not asking much, but knowing game companies, it's still asking too much. But that wouldn't fix it anyway.

                  I remember on the ps2 it was just as common to use triangle as the "back" button

                    That makes a lot of sense. They just decided "screw it. Westerns read backwards so like yeah probably everything else is backwards too?"

                      If xbox is gone, there's at least a chance we can finally bury the abxy vs bayx thing.

                      Never mind that abxy business what the hell happened to Start and Select!?

                      I know those buttons no longer do what theyre named after, but neither does rewinding a video or hanging up a phone.

                          R and L need to be swapped. Right is on the left side and Left is on the right side!

                            My mom plays PS1 games on RetroArch with an El Cheapo Bluetooth gamepad that has the Xbox layout. I have to explain the controls to her every time "Press X" or some such comes on the screen

                              TIC-80 has support for gamepads and keyboard. Some games say "Press X" as in the X button on the gamepad, while others refer to the X key on the keyboard which in the default mappings send the B button input.

                              It has caused lots of confusion

                                Steam Deck buttons are Xbox layout.

                                Better than the old days of "Press 3," or worse- having to map keys to joystick buttons in the config of everything

                                But SteamOS (UI) itself lets you configure it. It even has controller-agnostic button prompts, kind of similar to Breath of the Wild's where it shows you each button and highlights the one you should press. If I was at home, I'd share a picture of it.

                                      The idea is to make fun of actual mistakes you could make due to the different button layouts and names. I legit get RT and RB backwards because "Right Top / Right Bottom" makes more sense to my playstation brain than "Right Trigger / Right Bumper"; to me they're both triggers, just one is analogue and one isn't. Plus the position of X being in a different spot on 3 contemporary consoles.

                                      I've never confused left and right at least, thankfully! šŸ™‚

                                        I think some people needed a /s for my comment lol.

                                        I was thinking it would be fun to enrage people some more by labeling the left and right based on the picture and not the controller šŸ˜†
