Mega Man StarForce requires a lot of diagonals and whatnot, and the DS d-pad just doesnt cut it. I dont have huge thumbs but goddamn if this handheld doesnt make me think I have the biggest motherfukin thumbs on the planet. Its an exercise in frustration getting the twerp to move the way I want. ARHHHGHG.

Which one do you guys think is worse, wii's or the psp's?  I got one of those stick on DPADS for the PSP 'cause I couldn't pull off special moves in fighting games.  It worked great but I eventually removed it 'cause it made the PSP not fit in my case.

The d-pad issue on the psp can be compensated for by devs, proven by SFA3

DS Lite's D-pad is fucking awful.  It bugs the shit out of me how loose it is.

I quite like the Wii's d-pad though, why are you hating on it, Smooth Groove?

I told everyone on GAF this back when the preview hardware came out, and they were all like NO NO NO NO NO IM NOT LISTENING. DS lite's dpad is shit and a half
