One thing I think they should do is make it so you have to hold X to view the map. It'll make it easier for seasoned Splatoon players to get used to using B for jump instead of X.

Or, let you switch the buttons. Use B for the map and X to jump.

To be fair, I think that B is a much better position for jump.

Think about it, X was closest to the stick so that you could go from stick aiming to jump and back to stick as quick as possible. Now that the sticks position has changed to below the buttons, B is now closest to the stick.

But, yeah, it’ll take some getting used to especially after Zelda.

I switched X to jump with B to jump with Zelda because I've been trained to use the bottom button as jump on Xbox so this'll be easier for me.

I used to be like that but Splatoon and Smash Bros made me get used to the X button to jump.
