What is your opinion on stylus only games?

I can only think of a few off the top of my head (Dragonball origins, the two zelda ds games, and star fox command to a extent). What do you guys think of games like that? I'm not a really a big fan of them because I'm use to controlling a character with a d pad or a stick..

I'm with you. It isn't as fun to play with just a stylus. Not to mention hands get in the way of the screens, the screen gets all scratched, and attacks get mixed up a lot in the games I have played at least. The only strongly stylus driven game that I like is The World Ends With You.

Also, make this into a poll?

I think it can get frustrating and awkward to use. I'm used to using a dpad or stick as well so it makes it hard to use.

Both Spirit Tracks and Phantom Hourglass were ruined by the stylus only controls. Stylus only = bad game 99% of the time.

Depends on the game. Scribblenauts was ruined because of the touchpad only controls.

RTS, on the other way are aways better on touchpad, and some Puzzle games, like Piccross, or the old point'n'click adventure games, like Broken sword are WAY better on stylus.

Also, Elite Beat Agents.

Edited to correct misspelling.

It does get irritating buying a new screen protector every month because I have the urge to play Pokemon Ranger, Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword, TWEWY, Phantom Hourglass, and trying to get the highest scores possible in Swalot Plop and Pokeathlon. :?

Wouldn't it be easier if the touch screen was just like the iPhone, where you don't need a stylus...?

If the 3DS screen is big enough, maybe using a stylus can be optional...? :?

Well I like aiming on the shooting games but those don't count as stylus only games so....yeah I actually enjoy a lot of the stylus games but then their are some games that cannot be played using the stylus...like bang-ai-oh spirits!
