Hacking Is there a d-pad attachment?

[morrisseyshair]

Hey, guys. Is there an attachment that sticks to the d-pad of the DS? Hard as I might some games are near impossible for me to control because the d-pad is too small and awkward to move things, especially 3D games. I played GTA: Chinatown Wars on DS and not being able to move diagonally caused me to stop playing it. I played the PSP version and using the nub was so much more comfortable. It's the same issue with other games like Rayman. What I'm asking for is some gel-like thing that attaches to the d-pad that can be removed just as easily to close the lid. Has anybody come across anything like that?

Let me know if you find anything useful, BlackDave. Thanks for the suggestion, Hatsu and Inunah.

If you had something attached, how would the DS close? D:

This is old but it helps for games like Rayman and Mario64 (it really sounds stupid but apparently it works)

I just thought of something else. If the game in question has touch screen controls as well as D-Pad controls, you could try finding a DS Phat lanyard. It has something on the end that is generally supposed to be used as a thumb stylus. It was probably designed with games like Rayman DS in mind. ^-^

i you could find it somewhere on ebay or amazon or any gaming specialty site.
