I forget if I ever shared this thing I made back in the day.
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
Gamecube controllers had X on the right, if you’re looking to fill in your graphic :)
R and L need to be swapped. Right is on the left side and Left is on the right side!
That layout look pretty good ngl
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.
Rip. Killed for a “sHaRe BuTtOn”
Xbox has influenced PC gaming too much for that.
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
Just have left x, upper x, right x and lower x. That way there’s no confusion possible.
Since when is Xbox gone? Microsoft would be silly to kill off their console, they’d lose a pretty significant chunk of Game Pass subscribers. The rumors point to a hybrid PC/console, but it’s still an Xbox.
Of course, Microsoft making foolish decisions would be nothing new.
What I got is that they’re trying to move to OEMs, like windows PCs. Either way, switching to a PC platform seems doomed, because who would choose that when Steam exists.
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.
The Microsoft layout being the standard messes me up every time. The SNES layout was seared into my brain over 30 years ago.
Not enough X
Fixed, see my reply to salvaria’s comment. :)

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
Xkey on the keyboard which in the default mappings send the B button input.
