I never did have any issues with touchscreen control. It's probably the second best control method for any gaming system out (best being keyboard mouse) due to its precision.

The issue I have is with the thumbstrap control; it just never seemed to feel right for me. o.0

i agree with all of your review exept the tuch screen part. metroid prime hunters utilizes the touch screen so well, playing the game is like second nature. i think that the touch screens joystick simulating controls work better than the irrisponsive mini-joystick on the psp.

Since the most "different" thing about the DS is its touchscreen, I think it could only help your review to be a bit more detailed about it. It seems a lot of newer games are using it in interesting ways, so it could help to go in a bit of detail of the games that DON'T use the touchscreen as just a map screen. Just a thought.
