I have a JP PS3. It's the only Playstation I've ever owned or played on, so didn't seem odd to me.
I've just discovered that on Japanese machines (I think it's the same on PS2's and PSP's?) that the function of 'x' and 'o' is reversed in XMB and for DVD/BD playback from that found on US and I assume UK machines.
Does this swap also affect games?
Why are they swapped in the first place?
To clarify in XMB to select/play/pause etc I use 'o' and 'x' to go back/cancel/stop.

Thanks,
Rob.
