Second to the bottom, there's a 14 minute demo of Metroid Hunters, a Nintendo DS launch game I believe. Looking at the gameplay, it's looks just as good as a FPS with keyboard and mouse on a PC. You're using the touchpad & style as a substitute for a mouse, and it's pretty good so far. Graphics aren't bad either for a handheld. I might be getting that thing now. What do ya think?

No. I don't usually purchase handhelds (last one being Game Boy Pocket), and there's no way in hell a touchpad could ever measure up to the perfection that is an optical mouse + keyboard. I've had bad experiences with touchpads ;(
