Because I am a lefty I can not play a lot of games with the stylus. Does anyone else have this problem?

I find being a lefty helps more than being a righty .As most know that a left handed person uses his left side of the brain which means that you are more creative and more eye hand controled.

Well, sort of. At first it seemed awkward, but it soon became evident that I don't need to really write stuff while playing. Rather, I just need to tap stuff. It doesn't become that hard then.Also, in games where you can move entirely with the touch screen instead of the pad, I switch the stylus to my left side and handle the buttons with my right. It feels a lot more natural and works. So yea, it doesn't seem hard for me to compensate for the design of the DS.

Totally agree, mate.I'm a lefty and i find many games aren't suited for us.. sometimes i had to drop some games as its totally inconvenient..and hard to control..I've got Wii as well.. and I find some of the games have the exact problem.. especially some sports game like Table-tennis.. for right handers only..there's no option to change the settings.. sux...

I'm right handed... but I have a friend who is left-handed, and he played Ninja Gaiden DS. I was ok for him because that game have an option for left handed... but I don't know how many games have something like that... and for stylus-only games, there is not much problem (Like Professor Layton)

Im right handed and my husbands left and i know he has trouble with other things but id never even thought of the ds being a problem i guess i just take things for granted being a righty but i asked him to have a go on it and he said it was difficult but hed probably get use to it if he played as much as me the cheeky sod. :shifty:

Well i am a left but i became ambidextrous so i can use both of my hands, so its not much of a problem for me. Thouhg I do agree that some games may be hard for left handed people to play.

Since I use emulators, I don't really know if I'd have any issues, but being left handed... well, we're used to having problems @@I'm assuming you mean games that are played sideways? Some do give the options for left-handed, but I guess not all of them.I do know I've always have issues with some Mario Party mini-games on GC that needs to both button-smashing and moving around, my right hand just can't smash buttons as fast as my left. So I'm always stuck as last place on those games :P
