Also, I want to see that bookstyle tag used again in the future.

The book-style way of holding the DS is the single manner in which I like stylus-based control schemes. I have thus greatly enjoyed Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword and Planet Puzzle League.

Hotel Dusk, and Anything I use with the Hombrew Program Comicbook DS which lets me read Ebooks, Manga, PDFs and such on my DS.

I love most of the book-style games (Hotel Dusk, Crosswords, Ninja Gaiden, Brain Age, etc.) but I really don't like the book-style format. For me, holding the DS like a book just feels weird.

Hotel Dusk. From playing the original Meteos, I'd be willing to bet that the Disney edition is probably easier to play book style.

Both Hotel Dusk And Ninja Gaiden are by far 2 of the the best DS games. The way both games utilize the stylus and the manner of which you hold the DS was amazing!!!!
The only thing i wanted was the song "Take on Me" in Hotel Dusk!

Planet Puzzle League, by far, though I've also enjoyed Hotel Dusk. Book-style is pretty comfortable (it's easy on the hand holding the DS), and I hope more games use it in the future.

The Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side DS and Pinky St. games are phenomenal and my favorite 'book' games so far.

Hotel Dusk was great.
Also, I actually prefer the bookstyle gameplay over playing the system normally. I hope developers insist on making games that way in the future.

While I like Hotel Dusk and PPL as games, I can't say I particularly like playing games in the book style. The DSL screens are sensitive to the vertical viewing angle, which means that when you're playing a game sideways, each eye sees a slightly different brightness/color/contrast level, something I have always found annoying.

Open your DS to the first click. There is one more click past this that flattens out the two faces. Use this for book-style games to eliminate the contrast discrepancy.

Yeah, I loved Hotel Dusk. I only rented it though, I was poor then.

By far PPL. I absouletly love that game.
Off Topic : Has anybody seen those DS commercials advertising a girl playing NSMB on a purple DS? I live in the US, so this came as a shock to me.

I liked Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword, Crossword DS, Meteos: Disney Magic, & Brain Age.
Hotel Dusk is strictly rental or "buy then sell back to Gamestop" junk, IMO. I'd mention why, but it would be full of spoilers, and I don't want to ruin it for anyone.
Peace.
