It’s select and start.
What’s it supposed to be, windows and hamburgers?I won’t give it up. Select and Start.
My wife makes fun of me for it whenever we play couch co-op games. “What do you mean press start? My controller doesn’t have a Start”
So you married her for her looks, it could be worse.
I mean, she’s still a gamer at least…
The touchpad is just “big select”.
I’m not sure who in the name of all fuck decided that controllers should have a dedicated Tweeting button, but I suspect this gen will be the last of that.
Did the buttons really need renaming? It’s not like options and share or + and - make any more sense
For the switch, plus and minus have a symbolic benefit of matching their position on the console itself when the joycons are detached. It’s not significant enough to warrant the rename but it at least is more than just a rename.
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.
That’s not even an opinion, it’s fact. PlayStation calls it the cross button. Watch Dogs Legion has an accessibility option to read things out that’s permanently turned on for the opening menu. It says “Press the cross button”. Various manuals and in game text say cross too.
That being said I will be rotting in hell before I ever call it the cross button.
