Didn't you have to use the touch screen in NSMB if you wanted to obtain the power up that you were holding onto? Or was there a button that did that too?

I never used it for shitt But I am sure that Nintendo added a few stylus uses in there just to show us that it was not a totally pointless feature.

actually some of the minigames, did you the touchscreen, they were pretty much all touchscreen. You telling me you never tried those at all?

OT No to DS, as some the more popular games, Brain Training, Nintendogs relied on the tech. and Yes to 3ds as their are really no games on the system that rely on the 3d tech
