But the assumption with PC games usually would be xbox controller. Switch controllers don't have native USB support, so any PC usage is using the xbox controller protocol. So A is on the bottom, unless the game dev found some special way to check and detect for a swich controller specifically. The overwhelming majority don't.

Same thing with playstation controllers, although slightly more devs have found ways to check for them specifically.

I use a horipad-brand wired switch-style controller on PC. I use it because it fits better in my hands/ergonomics. I have a post-it note on my monitor reminding me of the button layout.
