What are your wackiest ideas for a “universal” controller layout that would appeal to the fans of the Xbox, Nintendo, and PS layouts? You certainly can’t pick one of the three, that would be lazy and frankly unfair for the other two layouts. It’s got to be something that everyone agrees on, something different!
I’ve got a few ideas: NSEW (the cardinal directions), RGBA (colours, also transparent button could be cool…), or maybe CMYK (printer ink colours for ease of printing)
What are your ideas for the universal controller layout?
I would go with the design of the PS5 controller but with ABXY instead of circle square etc. And do it right way around like Xbox not backwards like Nintendo. Oh and go with an actual cruciform D-pad instead of the four buttons that are actually a D pad under the plastic thing. FFS.
