Metroid Prime: Hunters Problem.

Post by Molyneux »

I recently (finally!) acquired a DS, and found Hunters used.
It's a great game so far - I've lost badly in a few multiplayer matches, and am making my way through the story mode.

My problem is this: I find it really hard to play using the stylus for more than a few minutes before my hand starts to cramp up. Playing with the alternate control scheme fixes it, but makes it nearly impossible to aim quickly and accurately. Does anyone have any suggestions for something I could do?

The whatnow? I bought a DS Lite, and I don't believe it came with anything like that.

Really? My DS came with a strap that had a soft plastic piece you'd slide over your thumb - it makes Hunters a lot more playable. Don't tell me they've axed it...

There wasn't anything like that in my packaging; they may not have included it with the DS Lite.

My DS Lite didn't come with one either, I had to use the one I still had from my DS.

Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...
