For a few days I have not posted due to being busy/lazy. But a few days ago I received a package containing a Phantom Hourglass Feather Stylus. Sadly when it arrived I was out for a few days. So I have been a bit delayed on getting up some pic's and info. But I am back home now so enough with the excuses and on to the pic.
I was actually expecting it to be unusable, but in stead it is only almost unusable. As cool as this is for a freebie, it is really only good as something to add to your collection. I don't think Nintendo really made it to be used as a functional stylus.
While it does work there are a number of reasons to not use it.
- It does not fit in the DS Stylus slot (Duh).
- Due to its feather like shape it is not really as comfortable to hold as the standard stylus.
- The plastic feather piece on the back is a little to sharp for my liking.
But despite these issues a few things it does have going for it, are its size which is about the length of one and a half normal DS Lite styluses. There is also the fact that it is a cool looking plastic feather, but the best part is of course its price which is completely free.
If you have still not gotten one go check out this post before it is too late.
