Unpopular Opinion: The Playstation Controllers dont have an X button. Everyone should be calling it cross and would save so much confusion. Like there is a triangle, a circle, a square and another geometric shape. Hate having to specify when playing couch coop with friends if they have to press the xbox x or the playstation x. I know with nintendo people it gets even worse.
Had me in the first half. But I like your gusto
I hate that Xbox stole the buttons from Nintendo and then swapped them over just to fuck with me more.
Between Sony, MS, Nintendo and Gamecube Nintendo, the X button can be in four different places.
RIP Sega
Well, SNES had YXBA first I guess. But I forgot that Sega also evolved from 12 to ABC to XYZABC, back to XYAB.
It's weird watching these controller layouts come in and change over time, and then Sony just go "no, like this" and suddenly that's the standard. DualShock really was a great design and a massive improvement for anyone with adult sized hands.
They didn't steal it from Nintendo. It was a carryover from their collaboration with Sega on the Dreamcast. [link] (https://news.microsoft.com/1998/05/21/microsoft-sega-collaborate-on-dreamcast-the-ultimate-home-video-game-system/)
