Wow! I really though more people would just use the d-pad and buttons.

Maybe I should actually try stylus mode myself.


Still, the results are interesting. Keep 'em coming.

I play using the stylus.

I recently played the Xbox live arcade version and was shocked to find that the dual analog setup felt way less intuitive and way less accurate to me than the dpad + stylus setup on the DS.

The touch controls in Geometry wars are probably the best I've seen on the DS (at least in terms of touch screen replacing analog stick). In fact I'd call the accuracy perfect. I never ever aim at somethings and miss.

I keep coming back to D-pad & buttons in Galaxies. The stylus aiming just seems awkward to me for some reason. I think GeoWars did it better.
