I swear Poffin making will be the death of my touch screen.
 
Okay so at first the Poffin making is nice and slow and generally relaxed... but once those flames go blue and you can just rip through it. Man, I swear I am going to have permanent swirl marks on the lower DS screen. xDD!! It just gets so intense, and it's hilarious when friends are around and everyone is just freaking out. *cackle*

Cross May 15th, 2007 12:54 PM

I rarely make poffins because my screen gets so sratched. =(
But it is fun doing it with your friends, and them freaking out! XD

We just spin it like crazy or let it burn for fun sometimes! Lol!

(And if you think making poffins is the death of your screen, have you played Pokemon Ranger yet? o_o)

Zyph May 15th, 2007 12:56 PM

I like to make failpoffins with my friends too.

It's actually not that big of a deal on your touch screen if you use the pre-order styli.

Athena May 15th, 2007 12:59 PM

I definitely invested in a screen protector and I am happy for that. xD I use this pen that I got at the Japanese Pokemon Center (Haha literally they have one in Tokyo). It's a cute Pikachu one so hopefully that's fine. xD;

And no... I haven't played Pokemon Ranger yet. I did watch the Manaphy movie while I was visiting Japan though so I sorta get how you have to sorta... swirl around them or something. xD To capture them.

But ah! It was hilarious playing with my friend yesterday. He was all like "I can't poffin anymore! My arm is too tired!" xD

Poor my touch screen. Pokémon Ranger was the first game I had, and I have more than 10'000 points in the Capture Arena Record.

I'm so glad I got a screen protector. It's SO VERY worth it. If you don't have one on your screen, you're crazy.

Ha! I feel your pain... it was actually more of a pain in my wrist and fingers. Strange thing is, being a rather accomplished pianist, my fingers and wrists have been through the worst torture in front of 88 keys, and a tiny pen and Nintendo DS destroyed me. Ironic, eh?

I'm obsessive-compulsive, so I know how you feel, Athena. I've invested in MANY screen protectors, but can never seem to get the top screen right (there's always a damned air bubble in the middle).

Typhoon May 15th, 2007 8:37 PM

I only protect the bottom screen. The top screen is pretty safe without a protector, plus it looks much better without one, so I just leave it alone.

Rat May 15th, 2007 9:41 PM

I miss the berry blender from R/S/E :( That was fun. And easy. This is kinda fun, easy, but very tiering. Grr.

Ayano Katagiri May 15th, 2007 9:43 PM

The touch screen isn't too wasted after Poffin. Having a screen protector helps so much though in keeping it in a good condition.

Poffin swirling swirling and swirling.

c_dog May 16th, 2007 2:43 AM

my bottom screen's pretty scratched too, but not from poffin making. I bet most of them were from pokemon ranger, and mario basketball.

I dont bother with poffin, I get my Pokemon from R/S/E that were in the contest in those games and use there moves and condition for these contest in D/P

Pfft, if you think that's tough on your touch screen, you should try playing Elite Beat Agents on the hardest mode. Even as an experienced musical gamer, that is one tough game, especially the last song, which took me fifty~ tries.

Extric May 19th, 2007 4:55 PM

I didn't have a screen protector on my DS until I noticed that the Poffin's involved me drawing a circle on my touch screen. After the first time of doing it I quickly saved my game and pulled out my never used screen protectors I got in a DS starter kit. The whole circle thing was one reason why I didn't get Ranger (plus it didn't sound like any fun), but I have it now for the Manphy egg.

Taemin May 19th, 2007 5:15 PM

Pokemon Ranger isn't too tough on my screen, because I tend to try and not press on it too hard.. x__x
I rarely play it though, I love the characters, and the movie, but the game fails to amuse me for more then 30 minutes at a time..

As for poffins, haven't made it any yet...but I fear the results.
I'll probably freak out as well. xDD

kingofgames157 May 19th, 2007 7:12 PM

I never tried Poffin making yet...

My friend said he would let me borow his Ranger

NEVER HAPPENED :'(

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ May 25th, 2007 5:59 PM
