Regional variants
The OK and Cancel buttons in most of the Japanese PlayStation games are reversed in their North American and European releases. In Japan, the button (maru, right) is used as OK, while the  button (batsu, wrong) is used as Cancel. North American and European releases have the button or the  buttons as OK, while either the  or the  button are used as Cancel (some titles, like Xenogears, use the  button for cancelling actions and selections, along with the PlayStation 2 system browser and the XrossMedia Bar on the PlayStation 3 and the PSP). However, a few games, such as Square's Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy VII (which uses the button as cancel) and Final Fantasy Tactics, Namco's Ridge Racer Type 4, and Konami's Metal Gear Solid, use the Japanese button layout worldwide. Other games, like the Japanese version of Gran Turismo, use controls that are similar to North American games. These Japanese button layouts also apply to future PlayStation consoles. This is because in the early years Sony America (SCEA), Sony Europe (SCEE), and Sony Japan (SCEJ) had different development and testing documents (TRCs) for their respective territories.
