  • On this page select a device from the Input Device tab near the top of the screen.

  • First, open Suyu and find your game in the library. Next, right-click on the game and select Properties.

  • Now that you have the games Properties window open change to the Input tab on the end of the top row.

Use Different Controller Profile Layouts for Different Games in Suyu.

From now on, whenever you launch the game, the controller profiles you've configured will automatically load as defaults. Just keep in mind that altering the primary controller layout will affect every profile. Feel free to assign the same profile to multiple games and player slots—they don't need to be unique. Personally, I always find the default layout of the Switch Controller bothersome, especially with the A and B buttons reversed, so that's the first adjustment I make every time.
