Every Nintendo controller has had B-A (left-to-right)
The NES, SNES, GB, N64, GBA, Gamecube, DS, WiiMote, Classic, Classic Pro on Wii, 3DS, Classic on Wii, and now the Wii U Gamepad and Pro Controller
Sony uses the Square, Triangle, Circle, X thing on the PS-One, PS2, PSP, PS3, PSV, PS-Move, PS-Navigation which I like more than XYAB (Nintendo) or XYBA (Microsoft) because it is shapes are more universal language than alphabets and the same shapes are also color-coded.
ONLY the XBox and X360 use A-B (left-to-right)... thats a tiny fraction of the total controllers in used in the market place in the history of gaming... and people somehow manage to adjust to the odd XBox controller to the tune of ~100 million out of the 1 billion or so controllers out that have a different button layout.
(So less than 10%)
Anyway, please... give yourselves as gamers a lot more credit than not being able to adjust to different controller layouts.
Also, I think thumb-sticks up is a good change since its been a long time that thumbstick + triggers are more widely used in games than D-Pad and Buttons and symetrical controller design like the Sony controllers is also a good choice.
