Just spent the last 20 minutes playing it and my arms are killing me ; ;
Anyone else experience this and/or gots advice on what to do? ^^
PS: I had to cut my poor nails because they kept getting in the way while playing T.T
If you follow the instructions put out by Nintendo, your only suppose to play for 20 to 30 minutes at a time and then rest for 15 minutes. So, just kinda train yourself to put up with the pain:)
Yeah, at first it was really killing my hand, especially the left. But now I barely feel it. You just kinda get used to it. Basically, just rest the DS on your knee or table, don't play for too long at a time, and don't grip the stylus to tightly. Eventually, you'll stop feeling the pain.
No pain, no gain.
There shouldn't be any pain. It's a video game...
If you buy a larger stylus from a game store, it'll likely ease the cramp. For the first week I had the game, my hand was constantly hurting, and although I was usually resting the DS on my knee or bed, I was still struggling to last more than a few deathmatches. Then I was recommended a larger stylus over voice chat. Seriously, they work wonders, and give your hand - especially if you're big-handed like me - more to hold onto.
Just take a 5 minute break or so as soon as your hands start to hurt. Eventually, they'll get used to it.
Now where am I supposed to get a larger stylus, for free?
