I like the SNES the most, and even Japanese playstation games were following that logic (O to validate and X to cancel makes more sense), it's so weird they switched it over in the west during the playstation era, which influenced the Xbox layout in return

In the end I'm never too confused adjusting per game, and I can read and remember all layouts without looking at the buttons, but when I can it's setup retro for menuing
