They should have went with:

....N
W.....E
....S

Would have been so much more universal.

They should keep the SNES layout. Sony should be murdered for making the bottom button select and the primary button when the right hand button is so much more ergonomic.

The Snes layout should have been definitive.

Isn't that only a Western thing though? Don't a load of Japanese PS1 games have right button confirm layouts? Or is that just my imagination?

I like the SNES one as it looks the most like skittles.

Although the US ones were boring... but had the dimples on the top two buttons.

It's odd isn't it? I'd love to know why two buttons are concave. Aesthetic or something more?

US ones look like smarties after you had them in a class of coke.

Some do,others have changed. All DS games at least have it proper. MGS is still holding the fort in the west.

Who ever is responsible for Batman on the NES is a sadistic ****.

Don't have those consoles bro, so bomberman 2 on the snes will do for now

Dynablaster! was one of the other games I had with my original gameboy. I know it was like a bomberman game but not called bomberman but it was Bomberman but called Dynablaster. Loved that game.*

It was Dynablaster on the Amiga as well.

I'm looking to buy Super Star Wars for the Snes, found some going for frak all but they are German localised versions, anyone know if this extends beyond the instructions? Might get them if not.
