I've heard some people refer to them as "C-[direction]", but others have referred to them as "[direction]-C"...  What do you call them?(edited by Mutation on 11-15-04 11:51 PM) |

C-up flows, whereas up-C sounds awful. Plus, it makes more sense to first establish that it's C before stating the direction since there's only one C area, as opposed to two areas with left/right/up/down directions. That's probably just being really nit-picky, though, so I'll simply stand by my earlier argument of it simply sounding better.  |

Whenever I speak on the net, I say c-up c-down and such.  If you could be even more picky, you could say Camera up camera down and such. Since C stands for camera and the yellow buttons was orginally made for camera movement.  |

Originally posted by Kitten Yiffer The problem with replacing the "C" with "Camera" is that sometimes "C-Up"/"Up-C" would move the camera down, which can be a bit confusing.  Oh well...at least that's not as confusing as what I've heard about some people doing...I heard about one guy who called the top C button "Ham Sandwich", the left C button "C-Down" (or was it "Down-C"? I can't remember exactly), the bottom C button "Bob", and the right C button "Ham Sandwich". (edit: ...or did he call the left C button "Ham Sandwich" and the right one "C-Down" or "Down-C"? )(edited by Mutation on 11-16-04 05:14 AM) |

L+R+Z, Up+C-Down, C-Up+Down, Left+C-Left, C-Right+Right, A+B+Start.  It makes more sense not only because it sounds better, but it's less confusing. If you tell someone to press "Up-C" they're likely to mash Up before you say the C. If you say C first, they know. |

| yellow works...unless you have someone color blind...then you got some trouble there...but but yellow does make it easier..and its likely if you said left-C they would ask left and what c button... |

| I never really use it, unless forced to like in Metroid Prime or something. But they're used more like menu surfing in Prime, instead of actually controlling you. | |||

Originally posted by MutationActually, I was counting the D-pad.Originally posted by NetSplit But yeah, I suppose you could count the analog stick, too. I was mostly referring to how the D-pad and C buttons both have 4 directions, whereas the analog stick has 360 degrees of possible directions. |

| C-up, C-down, etc. The button comes first, then the direction. Since there are 4 C buttons, they have to each be categorized differently. You'll confuse someone if you tell them "up-C" and they hit up on the control pad. |

| C-Up. Sounds better, and as people have said, you're less likely to mash the pad or stick. | |||

| C-Up indeed too Nintendo made a good deal by inventing the N64 controller. There is no equivalent for emulation, so I'm using my Logitech Dual Action (exactely the samt layout like a PS1/PS2 analogue controller), since you never have the ideal setup for the four C buttons My setup used in games, referred th the PS-joypad layout: X = A Square = B Circle = C-right Triangle = C-up Select = C-left (try to play the Ocarina in Zelda OoT like that)Start = Start (not really )L1 = L R1 = R L2 = Z R2 = C-down Nah, I think, I'll put the left C-button to another position for Zelda OoT - since in battle you need to switch quickly (edited by Surlent on 11-18-04 05:59 AM) |
