Hacking Thicker stylus available?

[emmsmama]

I've found *longer* stylus' for sale for the dsl but haven't seen any that are thicker. The stylus that comes with it cramps up my hand (yeah, I know boo hoo hoo, you don't feel sorry for me lol). I'm wondering if anybody knows where thicker stylus' are available to buy.

play-asia has one where you insert a stylus into it, and it becomes like a fat ballpoint.

I highly recommend the Touch Pen Attachment by Hori (the one 4saken is referring to): http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-19-49-en-15-...attachment.html

Unfortunately, the black and white versions are out of stock right now. You can still order the pink one, however.

I would pick one of those up if I didn't recently waste heaps of money buying and selling

Ever heard about the Thumb Almighty?

I ordered that one couple weeks ago along with preorder of Taiko no Tatsujin DS, I hope they saved me a black pen because I ain't waiting for the pen when the game comes out.

I knew someone would suggest that lol. My thumb is too big to work effectively for many games on the DS, but thanks to the pp for the recommendation for the touch pen attachment link. That looks like exactly what I would like

Check this video out that a friend made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yS6-09So74Y

At that end he shows the Touch Pen Attachment so you can get an idea of how it works/looks.

I like that metal extendable one. I have the Hori extendable (without the "attachment") and they DO crack after a short amount of time. They are exactly like the one that came with the Castlevania: PoR bonus pak.

I really highly recommend this. Its a 4-1 pen thing. You twist it around it changes between pen and stylus and it's all got a bright LED and a laser diode in the end. Even comes with a lot of pen refills and extra batteries for $5. Its basically like a slightly heavier pen. It feels really great to use on the DS, I find it hard to use anything else! That site also have two sets of screen protectors for $1.99... not hori of course, but I still really love the feel of them. Great bargin! They've got NDSL charging stands, and two wii light guns attachments! There's quite a few NDS/Wii accessories on there actually =)
