IGN's gameplay impressions of the less-discussed DS version of Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games were mostly positive: there's a tantalizing possibility of online play, the 3D engine is apparently pleasing, and the game contains all the same events as the Wii version.Unfortunately, the description of the game's controls is troubling for us, and probably money in the bank for companies who produce DS screen protectors. Most of the game's events are controlled by moving the stylus back and forth as rapidly as possible in a prescribed direction to build up speed or power.
It may be fun, or it may just be a shortcut to a deep groove carved into your touch screen. Between this and the DS version of the notoriously controller-assassinating Mario Party, is any DS safe?

Hey, just get a Hori protector like I did.
No worries, no regrets. And I can go all out on EBA.

EBA killed my screen protector. I'm glad that I bought it with the game but even after a day or so of playing EBA I had a perfect "scratch ring" etched into my screen protector from all of the phrase markers.

I really wish I had gotten a screen protector before I touched EBA. Now I need a new DS.
