It isn't, no. Windows PC games almost universally have the Xbox button names by default (because Microsoft), and I'm not sure, but I think that Nintendo systems have the same ones but placed differently?

Either way, the PlayStation ones are not the universal default by any stretch of the imagination.

Nintendo flips A and B. It is one of the most minor, yet frustrating, swaps. So many times intending to hit "confirm" only to forget which layout I'm on and cancel/repeat dialogue.

The Nintendo layout is the original. Xbox flipped A and B and X and Y.

Yeah I know that. But in my peer group of thirty-something gaming enthusiast we are all used to the PS1 button setup.
