Ohhh, I used to use this all the time. Being able to play Sapphire with one hand was something I never appreciated until the feature was gone... :(

I really miss it, since I have a habit of playing using only my left hand while I'm lying on my side, and it's really inconvenient and kind of painful actually (I have small, unflexible hands) to reach all the way over to the A button.

I only used it occasionally. I forgot it existed over the years honestly. So its removal doesn't affect me much.

That's just stupid.

Pretty sure the poll options should be "like" and "dislike".
Opposed to yes and no.

But, yeah. I used L quite a lot. It made it easier to use your hands and the stylus simultaneously.

I personally never used it. I have a friend who was kind of annoyed it was gone though, he liked being able to play with one hand.

Considering my L button is broken I don't think I ever even knew of this existing.

hokala April 21st, 2011 3:05 PM

I never even knew you could do that! O.o

This annoyed me so much. I loved playing with one hand and doing something with the other. Like I'd play and eat at the same time. It was also handy when trading between two DS-es. I don't actually see why they removes it. Seems like a stupid thing to do :O

damn theres an L=A function for previous pokemon games???!

wish i could have a chance to play the previous gens...

When I played HeartGold at school, I usually kept hammering that L button, especially when level grinding, so it was a little disappointing at first to see it gone.

However, it really didn't matter after Black/White, now that I'm once more used to playing the regular way again...Still, would be nice to play with one hand conveniently, haha.
