[QUOTE="jaredmorgs, post: 199343, member: 459"] I had the shoulder button navigation thing working periodically a few days ago and shouted it out on Twitter. Then because I did that, it stopped working. I'm not sure whether it was because I was using a controller map on that screen. And yes, you can activate camera using buttons. For the Shield Tab Controller (STC), it is Y (the top button in the ABXY button cluster). But that's where it ends. How about implementing the DPad/Left Stick to navigate between menu elements and the X button (or A on STC) to select consistently in *all* menus. And the O (or B on STC) to back out through menus. This small thing would make a huge difference to navigating with a controller. I'd be happy with using a selection caret to highlight menu items. Zen handles menu navigation this way, and it is fine for me. I'd also think that normalizing the table carousel scroll should be done using up/down on the DPad. That is the logical thing a person would reach for if they didn't know about the triggers (I only stumbled across it). [/QUOTE]
