DS Daily: Custom stylus

by Jason Wishnov { Jun 5th 2007 at 9:00AM }

We've touched on the issue of the stylus before; many people use thicker, professional styluses from PDAs or whatnot, while others use some of the special edition ones seen around the internet. But it's a free-thinking world, guys and gals, and reality is such a ho-hum place.

Let your mind drift and dream, and tell us, dear readers: in a penultimate world (that's a clever pun, see?), what would your stylus be? Any reasonably cylindrical shape will do. We're partial to the deadly eastern dragon above, of course.

penultimate? ;o)

i usually stick with the stock stylus when i'm not at home -- otherwise, i rock a custom woodern stylus: http://stashbox.org/22966/w_stylus_2.jpg

People should really use a dictionary before throwing big words around on the Internet.

Eric: Is that 'custom stylus' a chopstick?

I'm using the extendable metal stylus from this set

Nice for the 'hand infront of the damn screen' problem in Ouendan/EBA

Ghaleon: it was a joke. As in stylus-pen. See what they did their?

Anyway, I tend to use my Naruto stylus or One Piece stylus, which I got with a crappy game and cool accessory set respectively. The PW stylus just isn't sturdy or rigid enough for serious gaming, being even more flexible than the normal stylus, where as the other two are thicker and more sturdy.
I would TOTALLY use my Rockman EXE if it hadn't broken almost immediately. I mean, come on, it even lit up! Mai non, it was the cheapest piece of promotional crap I have recieved... well, okay, that's a lie, but it was certainly the most dissapointing.

Hello, I'm David, and I'm addicted to custom DS styluses.

(and yes, the "their" was just to piss you off, I know when to use "there")

I ripped off the stylus from my old Handspring Visor when I was trying to do Trauma Center. The DS stylus is too tiny!

But the ULTIMATE stylus... wow I have no idea...

It would be neat if they had a Harry Potter branded stylus for each house, come to think of it, though I have no idea why they would.
