I FINALLY played a NDS!!!!

First time I played it was on Black Friday at Circuit City at 6am squished between two large angry women waiting on line...wasn't very enjoyable.

Roommate got one (because he thought I was going to, and wanted to play Mario64 with me while taking a sh*t) and I played the Metroid demo through once. Was ok. Doubt I'll ever buy one though. Played Mario64 on my comp with a D-Pad this past summer. Don't want to shell out $150 to do it again.

You don't have to use a D-pad for M64DS....

Anyway, EU DS launch is March 11, so it's not that bad. But I still haven't got a job, so I'm not sure if I can buy it right away..

And the wood didn't scratch it, it was soft wood. Probably even better than the missing pen itself.

Haven't heard of anyone who prefered using the touchscreen as an analog stick for it yet.

I wish the DS had an analog stick with the touchscreen

Maybe down the road when Ninty realizes the mistake they made by not at least including one (the casing can be remolded a little to fold over the joystick, is it that hard?)

Here's one right here. You just have to get used to it and it's more responsive and accurate than anything else.

IGN liked it better. But admitted, it's still not perfect.

Couldn't they have made the D-pad analog??
