Ahh...the touch screen makes things so much easier. I mean, if I didn't have my stylus, I'd still be able to use the traditional buttons, but the touch screen is a lot faster =P
 
A little bit both It dependes on what i think of at the time S t is all just up to Chance with me
 
Buttons. When you use the touch screen, you have a chance mis-touching. With the buttons, you can never go wrong.

T.T You would have to have some fat fingers to 'mis-touch'. Either that, or you're rushing through things, in which case you have just as equal chance of 'mis-clicking' using the buttons.



I like playing sitting or laying, if at all. Relaxing with stylus in hand, using the touch screen. :P Makes for an enjoyable experience.
 
I use the buttons, the touch screen... and sometimes when I am tired and can't focus I use the top screen too. sadly that does nothing but ruin it... :(
 
I use the touchscreen, I don't recall ever using the buttons. I prefer the touchscreen and now it's just a reaction to grab out the stylus while booting up Emerald.

Both, Depends on my mood...
 
I use the touchscreen, since I'm rarely stood up doing anything and I find it a lot faster. I don't find it a problem to hold on to the stylus when I'm not using it, and I can still use my fingernails on the screen because I bought screen protectors as soon as I got the DS =P They're lifesavers!
 
I'm a screen toucher, so to speak. I hold the stylus between two fingers while in the overworld view, but I use it for battling because of the ease in use.
 
I use both...Mainly the touch screen because it is fast! But when I am to lazy to pick up my stylus then I click with my fingers...and if all else fails then I use the buttons.
 
I've used the touch screen ever since the game came out. I've grown too use to it so I probably won't be using the buttons for battling anytime soon.
 
At first I used the touchscreen, but after losing a stylus [which I've found] and after playing waaaaay too much, I just use buttons. X3
Wayyy easier.
