Triangle is no

Bottom makes more sense

O for right
X for wrong
It's a system that's been used in a lot of things.

Can you explain why? I'm pretty sure no one can say one makes more sense than the other.

Yes should be closer to the thumb, making it the intuitive default button.

Top makes sense if you think about it
Crossing something out is seen as a no, while circling something is seen as an OK or the goal or some shit
At least in the US

Only if you are a retad

Japan is based, circle would be yes because science has proven round shapes are the favourite of high iq babies, UN and america have X as yes becausr straight lines are for low iq babied like american and the millions of other races storming europe

Not that user, but your thumb is on the bottom button by default. That's what you use to jump.

Circle means good and X means bad.
Yes and No.

But I hate it when people will say "Circle is good and X is bad in Japan, but in America, X is good and Circle is bad!"
NO that's not why.
It's just that we're used to the primary button being yes and the secondary button being no. Primary and secondary being dependent on which button is easiest to reach.

I always kind of liked it, the confirm option requiring the slightest bit more effort felt satisfying.

yes in dialogue is generally safer and youre more likely to have your finger on X in case of mispressing

BLUE GOOD
RED BAD

Some proto-tranny at sony west decided they liked it better this way, even though it's infinitely worse

It's a hard one. Circle is clearly the positive, while X is negative.
Hoever, the colour sceme is the opposite.
The blue is possitive, while the red is negative. So they kind of cancel eachother out.
And the placement of the X is better suited for Yes, since it is more centered, while the NO button is a bit to the side.

no, it's because blue = good and red = bad
making the good shape bad-colored and bad shape good-colored means it comes down to a coin flip that won't leave anyone happy

those shades of red and blue make sense for red=positive and blue=negative to me

I dunno about Europse, but in the US/Canada, X was the selection button, and Triangle was the cancel button on PS1/PS2 games.

Baka gaijin.

you have poo for brains

The only game I can think of that retained this was mgs.

>blue positive red negative
blue is cold red is warm

They ment pushing the X button is more convenient to press with your thumb so it made more sense to make it the comfirmation button considering it's the button you'll be pressing the most

>Japan is based

Top is the way it has always been
Bottom was invented either by contrarian faggots or ignoramuses with no respect for the medium
Every real gamer has the muscle memory for "press button for yes/main action and roll thumb down for no/secondary action"

That's literally how it's always been in Japan. America switched the buttons around. Funnily enough, it was meant to simplify the controllers because people got confused with the BA/YX from Snes controllers, and people naturally understand shapes and symbols easier than letters.

But it still led to a mess because people see Blue as good/ Red as bad.

I think most people got used to it because of PSX RPGs but even those would randomly change it up. I remember FF7 and FF8 having very different controls. FF7 followed the Japanese meaning for them, while FF8 followed North America.

west are sheeple and will agree to anything by default, based japs will either think hard or decline and come back later

>pushing the X button is more convenient to press with your thumb
Why?

nips are reading from right to left. it's just swapped to left-right direction

In the west that doesn't mean anything culturally.
heaven is blue, hell is red
blue water = life, red blood = death
What's the fucking mystery?

why would a cross ever be yes

take your meds.

>yes in dialogue is generally safer
No, it's best to press the cancel button so that you don't accidentally engage talking to an NPC over and over again

Japanese read from right to left. Westerners read from left to right.

how fat are thou thumb

The symbols make more sense for the Japanese interpretation but the thumb position is more ergonomic for the rest of the world's interpretation. You're more likely to hit Confirm than Back on menus because some menus don't have the option to hit Back.

>**ruto
could someone explain this asterisk meme to me?

in japan a circle mean correct
an X means inorrect

I figure the west uses X for accept bvause its the most used button since its usually jump button.
triangle is on the oppoite side of the mapping

Jews use the circle in that way to avoid the cross symbol, that's how the "kike" term came to be. Japs are just yellow jews

Your weeb's delusion days are numbered.

LMAO, you did it to yourself mate.

in japanese
maru = correct/good/yes
batsu = incorrect/bad/no

based schizo

>in japan a circle mean correct

That is universal.
The reason why it is changed in the west is because of the placement and partially the colour sceme.

X = cross = Christ
O = Sun = Japan's flag

I feel like the only reason why X being Yes makes sense, is because they insisted on having it set that way from the start. They brainwashed people into perceiving it that way. I wouldn't have cared if they just kept it how it's done in japan, I had no other reference to go by.

You jump from one thing to another with no semblance of sense. You connect dots that don't exist and even the points you are trying to make are hard to follow by themselves. You are literally a schizo without his meds.

Just think of thr circle and the x like a butthole
If the anus is O then is okay to insert it, but if its a X then it need more lube aka no insertion

How is it so hard for small brain nips and weebs to understand that the button that will be used by default for 75% of interactions should be the one closest to the thumb

>the one closest to the thumb
But which button is closest to your thumb depends on where you put your fucking thumb
This argument makes no sense

right to left reading?

Where did you get that assumption?

Did you even read what I wrote? It seems that the only world that is real is the one that resides in your brain.

Modern Japanese is right to left vertically and left to right horizontally

I dunno why this argument is going on, it was always a matter of button placement, not what the buttons themselves meant. Look at It wasn't until the 7th gen that playstation games adopted the same scheme as the xbox

No it doesn't.

Why should I read nothing?
