Ok Out of the 45 or so NDS games i've played, of the ones that use the stylus only 3 actually needed it, and the others its just an annoyence. The 3 that the stylus worked well for was "Castlevania the one with soma (forgot name) The world ends with you, and knights in the nightmare..
Then we have the games where you just go wth? when you gotta use the stylus, take Final Fantasy Crystal Chronices: Rings of Fate. You hit R to go into using your race special, then you gotta click a mob with the stylus.. this is just stupid when it auto highlights the nearest monster and you should be able to just hit A to do the attack. Same with viewing the map, L seems to do nothing and should of had map set to it insted of needing to always have the stylus in my hand, its just totally akward (This is also why the Wii is a failure (A Dev from Nintendo in japan even says its having problems over there), no game devs wanna bother with it due to the control setup. Etran Oddessy 1 and possibly 2 (Never played 2) is another dumb concept, why not just have the map drawn for you insted of having to waste the players time drawing walls and crap.
I think they should allow you to opt to NOT use the stylus in games like Zelda: Phantom Hourglass if the player so chooses. What was wrong with all the other zelda games that used a controller? Maybe its just me but I find the whole touch screen/stylus crap just a major annoyence when playing most games. Anyone else feel this way?
