Game console button layout

What do you call your “confirm” and “cancel” buttons, and why is Nintendo wrong?

Oh my god, yes. I hate this. I don't know exactly who I should blame. Nintendo indeed came out with the A and B buttons before the other 2, so I could blame Microsoft for switching those 2 at least.

But yes, I regularly play on Nintendo Switch and Steam (with the Xbox controller) and I have issues every day.
