Mostly of interest for games where swapping items usually involves going to inventory screen and equipping different things manually.
Note that this is not for cycling active weapon in the manner it exists in most (first-person) shooters, but rather setting up a set of items that you want to be quickly swapped to via a single button. Usually limited to 2 sets though there has probably been games with up to 4 sets. Implies that each item in a set can be separately used with any other item, barring some easily understood restrictions (e.g. no tower shield and great axe).
