    I broke my one and only DS stylus pen (something I would be against my nature to do but Ready Steady Go on the hardest level of Ouendan is too damn tough and that unskippable 30 second intro infuriates me :mad: ) so I went ahead and bought myself some official replacement DS stylus pens only to find that they are too big to fit into the back of my DS Fat. Why Nintendo are selling stylus pens that don't fit the back of the DS is beyond stupid. Anyway, rant over.

    DS Lite pens are bigger than the original DS ones. Thats the problem. Still they should say the pens are only for the DS lite. I still have both the originals, by the time i lose them i bet nintendo will have phased out original DS ones.

    :eek:

    You use a DS phat? I wouldn't ever really normally recommend buying an update of a console, but the DS Lite is like a new console in itself.

    I have both and games are far more enjoyable on the lite. Not to mention the 3 in 1 expansion pak fits it (I had to cut one down with a knife to get it to fit the phat..and now the thing is eternally jammed in)

    Plus, you get to use these fancy retractable steel styluses The extra length is great :D

    ROFL! o1s1n loves an extra bit of length.

    Starting to like the DS Lite pens if only for the fact that I managed to beat Ready! Steady! Go! on the hardest level on Ouendan last night. I'll have to put this DS stylus in a shrine somewhere, the excalibur of DS pens. Tried to play Elite Beat Agents last night and was woeful, I wasn't used to how slow the lower difficulty levels are :)

    Some 1337 HaxOr took control of my account and added that bit at the end. I swear. :o

    White men can't play rhythm based games. Well that's my excuse anyway.
