that isn't a good idea because if you do that you'll probably smudge the screen or break it so use the pen

I do most of the time, but on games like pokemon, when you only need to touch the screen a couple of time in a battle I can't be bothered

I like the stylus. My fingers are too cumbersome.

I will use my finger if it's something quick and I don't want to bother pulling out the stylus for it.My biggest issue is having to remember not do it in front of my 3 year old daughter, because then she wants to use her fingers on our DSes all the time and we have to remind her to use the stylus. I've had to clean many a sticky little print off of my screen. :(

I try not to use my fingers on the touch screen. You could scratch the screen and it gets all kinds of oil, from the fingers, on it. There are occasionally rare times when I use the base of my thumb to select something.

It depends on what kind of game it is and what I'm doing. If it's a game where I use the buttons more often or I only need to touch the screen once then I wouldn't use the stylus. But if I had to do some complicated moves, then I would use the stylus. It just depends on what's more convenient.

If the game requires frequent use of the touchscreen I'll pull out the stylus. But if only the odd tap is required, I generally use the back of my fingernail.

Personally, I hate using the stylus because it's so small in my hand and when I use my fingers it leaves smudges which bothers me more than anything. My brother gave me a pen with a built in PDA stylus which I use instead. It's comfortable enough to use for an extended period of time and I can convienantly stick it in my pants pocket when done.

I always use the stylus. I don't even thing your fingers really work on the touch screen, do that?Anyways, if they do, there is no way I could stand playing my ds with my fingers, unless all i had to do is press something.But all the smudging that would occur... ahh D:

I always use my stylus cuz it's small and so it's accurate. Where I to use my fingers, it'd accidentally push something I didn't want to. I also hate smudges, so I don't want to put up with constantly wiping my screen....that would drive me insane.....

I hardly play touch screen games. I have played Dementium and Moon but other then that I hardly use it. I'll use my finger or thumb for it. But then why is it there when a lot of games don't really need it?

Rarely, and if I have to, I wash my hands first and clean the screen off later. I go nuts over smudges and scratches on my electronics.
