Me for one - I detest the stylus control, it feels awkward and the stylus gets in the way.
Still, I'm sure I'm in the minority on this so just think of me as an old moaning luddite.
I also don't like using the stylus for moving, although I do like using it for the stab motion. I'm obviously not very good at this type of control because I find it difficult (but not impossible) to do some of the more complex actions (forward rolls and the big circle attack). I also really hate having to physically blow out candles.
On the other hand I am really enjoying Tiger Woods '08 on the DS, and like the stylus control. Even in this instance though I find I tend to get better shots with the 3-tap method and get better ball control using the buttons.
When do you think we will see a native media player for the wii (not using the browser) ? I would love to be able to plug-in a USB harddrive and use the wii as a jukebox.
I like Jam Sessions. It's great for the musically untalented like myself - I'm able to play a load of songs that my stupid fingers wouldn't let me do on a real guitar, although a couple of missing chords are a bit annoying.

i've noticed some of the second-hand gamecube prices creeping up in gamestation too over tha last few months. i bought soul calibur 2, burnout 2, viewtiful joe etc in 4 for £20 deals in gamestation before and all of these games have now moved up to 2 for £20 deals now.

Overall, yes. But I did manage to get a copy of The Godfather for about £15 or so delivered via eBay the other day. But much of the time when I check, prices are close to what the games cost new from sites like play.
Hopefully second hand prices will go down the more titles become available... and there is a lot due before the end of the year.
