if you lost your stylus would you use your fingers or buy a new one

[Kadaj]

I have extra under my bed I dont know why but I never like having no stylus to use so I would get one from under my bed if all of them were gone I would just immediatly go to GameStop and buy a stylus kit I would store the rest I didnt use under my bed in case my regular rainbow stylus goes missing so ya if I lost all my styluses I would HAVE to get new ones because they dont really work well if I use my hands to type on the 3DS or Wii U so I would immediatly get a new kit.

Under your bed? Ugggh yuck like dont they get all dusty under there or something?

I've lost my stylus before, so I pretty much had to use my fingers.
I don't go to the store often, but I'll pick up a stylus if I need one while I'm getting something else.
They have some cool looking ones, like one with characters on the end!

Pretty cool, right?

Hey yeah that does look kinda nice. But id probably end up buying the normal onea anyway kek^^

I don't tend to lose my stylus, but if such a horrid thing did happen I would just resort to using my Finger to play my games lol >.> It would be pain for mostly Mario Maker, but that's something I'll get used to within a day or two...

Oh wow kek i know i would never adjust there, ive used a stylus on everything compatible since the original ds. So for me, that would be like trying to read Japanese (which i cant do at all now but hope to learn soon).

If I ever lose stylus of Nintendo 3ds xl I probably going to buy new one as using finger might left stain on 3ds screen which really does not look good .

And if their will stain on my 3ds I won't be available reasist my eagerness to clean it(I hate cleaning and all that )

if you lost your stylus would you go buy a new one or just use your hands? Me personally would go buy a new one for alot of reasons first of all there cheap. And second of all its sooo hard to write with your fingers. I always mess up with my fingers. So i would totally buy a new one.

So what would you do go buy a new one or just simply use your fingers???

I will buy one. They are really cheap, and yes, it is hard to do it with your fingers. The only problem they almost don't sell it in Israel, so if I am losing them I need to look alot for a shop that sells one.

I lost my stylus long time ago, i use a cotton bud, and its the best stylus i had

Genius lol I love it. Ill definitely have to keep that in mind if i ever loose mine.

I'm not sure I'd care actually. I only use the stylus in Pokemon Picross and I haven't played that in months.
But if I lost one and needed one, I'd use the one from another one of my 3DS systems
And if I lost a second one, I'd still have one left
But yeah, if I lost all three of them and needed one for some reason, I'd buy new ones.

I lose my stylus all the time because it keeps falling out of the place you put it in. ;-; Usually, I get one from my cousin who has a lot of extras in case she loses hers. And using my finger is hard for me so now I just use a tiny pencil, which actually works! xD

 

[BonnetteForever]

i've been using my fingers for as long as I can remember actually, i always end up losing the stylus...

 

[Pookie]

I honestly wouldn't care for a stylus. If I were to lose mine I probably wouldn't even care, I never really use it of that matter. The only time I would really put it to use is by drawing or something which would be a rare occasion.

 

[T-Player Guy]

I think I'd try to at the very least search around for something that ressemble a stylus pen,and doesn't cause too much harm to my DS's or 3DS's touch screen.My DS Lite lost its stylus a while ago,so I use my Snivy-theme stylus to accomplish it's function.My 3DS's stylus is still fine though,although I witnessed one or two times that it got lost around my room.
To be honest,I can't play comfortably with my fingers if I was tasked to rely just on them.They're too big and unprecise to rely on,especially in those cases where the game is hugely impacted by it.

 

[dilawer]

I've never had a stylus. I lost it on the first day, I think. I've been using pens, pencils, knives, headphone jacks, screwdrivers, and sometimes even a jackhammer for my 3DS.

I lose my stylus pretty often, and thus I purchase stylus's pretty often. Well, maybe every 4-5 months I buy a pack of like 10 for $5 off Amazon or something. Using your fingers is gross and not precise, can't imagine playing something like Mario Maker without a stylus.

Even though I rarely use my stylus on my 3DS to justify purchasing a new one if I misplace it, I would not use my finger on my 3DS's touchscreen. It'll just make it dirty and I'd have to go through the trouble of using a cloth to wipe it regularly.

wash your hands

I loose my stylus' all the time, but that's why I have another two six packs of them. I always have backups. If I ever loose them all, I would just buy a new one, I mean, you'll only be out like, 3 dollars for a six pack, so it's not really that big of a deal to me.

 

[PrimordialMew24]

I personally have yet to loose a stylus due to the infrequency of their use. I'm very paranoid of losing the stylus and have back ups just in case because when I lose the stylus I'll actually need one. On my old 3DS Xl I had a stylus with a burr that would catch on the screen protector, this one was the only stylus I have ever replaced.

As for people who complain about dirty finger prints...I bought a matte finish screen protector that reduces the visibility of finger smudges and dirt. Yes, such a screen protector is more expensive, but it's self healing and you'll only ever need on for the life of your system.

 

[Jahfoolie]

I'd just use my finger/nail, I have three styluses yet always use my thumbs or d-pad (when available) anyway

 

[Jeff The Killer]

I'd buy another stylus (this is if I don't loose my pen stylus). I know now I at times use my finger even though I still have my stylus but that is only with Pokémon.

My sister uses a Mechanical Pencil on her ds

 

[eonia]

they are cheap and if you use you hands the screen can what is the word i am searching? ¿scratch?(sorry my english isnt perfect)

so, better be carefull and buying a new one

the first time I losed a stilus and used my hands, the screen got so ¿scratched? that some games were inplayable, Fortunately my mother found a store were she could change the screen for 15 euros and she buyed me some stilus just in case
