I didnt have any problems with Kid Icarus.

Some people do though. I do think people need to forget about the twin sticks as it will not be coming.

I agree the 3DS did need two sticks, however it's somthing we are going to have to live without. You can't redesign somthing that's all sold 10's millions especially adding somthing that would make it so millions are useless. As then you've either got dev's heavily focusing on it, or just slapping it on putting little effort into either the two different controls schemes.

the touchscreen/stylus control was the idea all along with the ds, kid icarus is the first game ive really had a problem with.

shame really, because i really liked the look of it

It would be impossible for me to clear some of the levels I have done on higher difficulties with dual analogues. It would be a handicap for this game and not an improvement, hence why there was no support for the CPP.

People cried and cried about how the PSP needed Two Analog Sticks and how they would buy it if it had two, Sony gave them that with the Vita, what happened? Vita bombs.

Gamers don't know what they want most of the time, they only know what to complain about.

You can kinda use the bottom screen as a stick - with Resi Evil, I use the screen as my right stick to look around.

There is a quasi-dual analogue mode in the settings, where you control the aiming reticule with the face buttons. It's the same set-up that developers use to get around not having two sticks on the PSP.

It's not great, but it might help make the game more comfortable for you.
