# Different button prompts in games
|
||
|
||
Depending on what system you are playing the button prompt inputs might not correspond to the one you have on your physical controller or device you have in your hand.
|
||
|
||
## Xbox Games
|
||
The Xbox layout is used by `Xbox Controllers`.<br>
|
||
Is also used by devices like the `Steam Deck` `Rog Alley`.<br>
|
||
It is used by a lot of `Genric` third party `PC controllers` and `Xbox Clone Controllers`.
|
||
|
||
**Xbox - Button Layout:**<br>
|
||
|
||
| Button Placement | Button |Name |
|
||
| :--- | :---: |:---: |
|
||
| North | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0007.png" width="30"> |Y |
|
||
| West | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0006.png" width="30"> |X |
|
||
| East | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0005.png" width="30"> |B |
|
||
| South | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0004.png" width="30"> |A |
|
||
|
||
|
||
**Example:**<br>
|
||
So if you are emulating a Xbox game that calls for the button `B` to be pressed it corresponds to the right button.
|
||
|
||
## Nintendo Games
|
||
The Nintendo layout is used by `Nintendo Controllers`..<br>
|
||
It could also be used by other `Genric` third party `Nintendo Clone Controllers`.
|
||
|
||
**Nintendo - Button Layout**<br>
|
||
|
||
| Button Placement | Button |Name |
|
||
| :--- | :---: |:---: |
|
||
| North | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0006.png" width="30"> |X |
|
||
| West | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0007.png" width="30"> |Y |
|
||
| East | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0004.png" width="30"> |A |
|
||
| South | <img src="../../wiki_icons/kenneynl-input-pixel16×/tile_0005.png" width="30"> |B |
|
||
|
||
|
||
**Example:**<br>
|
||
So if you are emulating a Nintendo game that calls for the button `A` to be pressed it corresponds to the right button.
|
||
|
||
## Sony PlayStation Games
|
||
The Playstation layout is used by `Playstation Controllers`. <br>
|
||
It could also be used by other `Genric` third party `Playstation Clone Controllers`.
|
||
|
||
**Playstation - Button Layout**<br>
|
||
|
||
| Button Placement | Button | Name |
|
||
| :--- | :---: |:---: |
|
||
| North | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-triangle.png" width="20"> |Triangle |
|
||
| West | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-square.png" width="20"> |Square |
|
||
| East | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-circle.png" width="20"> |Circle |
|
||
| South | <img src="../../wiki_icons/playstation/playstation-cross.png" width="20"> |Cross |
|
||
|
||
**Example:**
|
||
|
||
If you are emulating a PlayStation game that calls for the button `Square` to be pressed it corresponds to the left button.
|
||
|
||
**Regional differences:**
|
||
|
||
|
||
In games from the EU/US `Cross` is confirm while in Japan `Cross` is cancel:
|
||
|
||
Depending on the region of your Playstation game, the buttons `Circle` and `Cross` switches the meaning for confirm and cancel (they are still at the same physical location).
|
||
|
||
But it is good to keep in mind if you are used to exiting out of menus with a certain button and wondering why it works in some games while others not.
