I finally had a day off today and basically bummed around the house playing my new DS system for over 8 hours. It kind of reminded me of when I first purchased the Sega Genesis and had my folks call me out of school for the day...with a little sickness faking of course :) Those were the days LOL

Well, after hours upon hours of gameplay, I am even more in love with this system. I am a complete champ at the touchscreen control, and wonder how I ever did without it previously. It is really IMHO the best invention next to the analog stick or PC mouse. On another note, I played the system on a full charge for over 8 hours (turned it off a few times for smoke breaks/eating), and it didn't even give a hint of loosing any battery life. Amazing.

Back on the topic of the touch screen. I really hope the PSP has something special going for it that can match this feature, because I am finding it hard to think of playing a portable system without the touch at this point! Not to sound like a "fanboy", but perhaps a fan of the touch screen itself...

After using the stylus on my PDA to play games, I would find myself reaching for a phantom stylus when playing my GBAsp.

I've been using a Tapwave Zodiac for a few months with it's touchscreen and now I've been using the DS for a while. And I've found the same thing to be true.

When playing the SP or my GP32 I'll try to touch the screen. LOL

I feel like such a perv......I ...NEED...TO...TOUCH...... O_O
