Question on Ridge Racer 7 USA version

[TheShadowRunner]

Hey All, I just would like to know the button mapping in the menus of RR7 USA version.

Is it like:

Cancel: O
Select: X

or the other way round, japanese style:

Cancel: X
Select: O ?

I'm talking about Ridge Racer 7 USA

Thanks,

I'll therefore get the Japanese version.
I can't stand the US control scheme :/
Thank you,

You can change your lang to Japanese or use Japanese Firmware and have that control scheme with the US version of the game.

[TheShadowRunner]

Is the button mapping stored in the firmware?
Interesting!
That'd be contrary to the PSP system where button mapping is NOT stored in the fw.

And the US game on a jpn system would have jpn controls if lang is set to Japanese? All the more interesting!

I was guessing I'm not positive.

Interesting infos:

Jap RR7 on a Jap PS3 will has two button mapping behaviors:
If language is set to english: X is confirm and O is cancel.
If language is set to Japanese: O is confirm and X is cancel.

However, new games and demos from PSN don't seem to query the language setting anymore!!

ie; regarldess of the language setting, O is confirm and X is cancel on Jpn PS3 and X is confirm / O is cancel on US & EURO PS3.

So while early games checked the language setting for the button mapping, it seems newer ones check the console kernel!!

And for me who has always despised X = select, it is excellent news indeed.
