Is nintendo getting a little stylus crazy?

The bottom screen isnt a map or a menu anymore OH HELL NO!

Nintendo and Phantom hourglass are giong crazy with the stylus!

The boomerang, course-setting, shooting (bow&arrow of course) and a lot of fighing, door opening navi using (shudders) and stuff like that all at the tip of a little pen-like instrument.

Nintendo needs to find the balance between the touch screen and the buttons to make this game #1

i wonder if you can play music with it and send to others players via wi-fi?

Maybe an orchestra!

Anyway how many of you think some games like PH will be a little too hands-on (stylus+touch screen dumbass)

It's about time that the DS actually really used the stylus for something.RErikku12

The stylus has been used heavily by a lot of games. Kirby Canvas Curse is played only with the stylus.

also let's not forget games such as metroid prime hunters and pheonix wright, those games don't "need" the stylus, but they do help...........ALOT.

so ya, i believe nintendo DID use the touch screen long enough, i think that they MUST find the balance in PH or the game might get ruined (ok maybe not ruined but it will damage it).

still, when i saw in that trailer that the game will be almost completely played with the stylus i was botherd a little, but then when i started playing the video again and again, it really got to me, this game will be AWESOME no matter what, i just love it :D

stylus=innovation

innovation=Nintendo

therefore, stylus=Nintendo

no what would be innovative is if the touch screen morphed!

When you open a door a doorknob pops out!

When you try to kill someone..................hmm still workin out the kinks!

I don't know.  Have you ever worked in tech support?

well, i personally love using the stylus but i can agree that nintendo needs to find a balance.  in this game, you rely on the touchscreen.  im looking forward to itmp4ever

I find the commercials rather amusing, "touching is good" Gary_Jinfield

great point, too much touching, hence the name, warioware: touched.  it is a great game but more interaction with the buttons would be for the best

I thought that this was really cool.  The stylus functionality of the DS needs to be used more than just a little gimmick, it should be integrated into gameplay more, like it has here.

If you have it, use it!UNOwen802

That seems to be Nintendo's strategy.

Thats true. From the games I have, I only use the stylus constantly when playing Metroid Prime Hunters

Stylus is needed for fast aiming and is the reason why there is no lock on feature. Why do you think FPS on the PC are usually considered superior to the ones on consoles?:P

the only games you absolutely have to use the stylus or at least the touch screen for are nintendogs, mph, and a few other games. Everything else is pretty optional.
