    That is why I use a third party controller that allows me to remap buttons.

    8BitDo Pro 2

    I can use it for the PC, Switch, Xbox, or PlayStation.

      remapping is super useful, but the problem I have are when prompts on the screen relate the button letter, color, and orientation all together like how they’d be on the controller it expects.

      used to use my switch controller on pc, but games like Guardians of the Galaxy messed my brain up when it asks for, within a given timeframe, the overwhelmingly green, enormously-typefaced ‘A’ button that’s on the bottom of the 4 face buttons; I’m used to switching mindsets between controllers, not mixing them together, so ended up switching over to an xbox-style controller for pc

      and I didn’t downvote, but thought to chime in maybe from a perspective of someone else that throws them around more nonchalantly; it’s either a thought like that, or they personally had bad experiences with the pro 2

        Yeah, that does give me issues too. I’ve setup my controller as as Xbox controller also. When the Switch shows to press the “A” button (At 3:00 o’clock), I try to not look at the placement, but the letter, which would be my 6:00 o’clock.
