The game controls like Metroid Prime Hunters on DS by default, so the stand's there to make it easier to use the stylus for aiming. Personally I had no issues with how Hunters worked, but I'll likely give the stand a shot. And if I don't like it at least it'll provide me with an easy way to display the handheld in my game room :)

Of course, controls are customizable in a similar fashion to Brawl so the stand is entirely optional.

Never played Hunters with the stylus but the way the controls are described on the official site it sounds a lot like Dementium: The Ward. Which I never felt like those controls were difficult but it would cramp up your hand.

I'm interested in seeing how the stand works out.

They are now out of Club Nintendo-exclusive cards.

Hope you got a pack before they ran out!

If you miss out on the AR cards, they'll end up on the internet and then you can just print them out.

Still unsure as to whether to pre order this. It'd be my 2nd 3DS game. :P looks pretty sweet. Being left handed will make this interesting too. I don't want to get an ugly circle pad add on to play left handed. So I'll just deal with it. :D

Or you can get them on eBay... but even the Game Informer exclusive card is going for $5 now :?

The AR cards from Club Nintendo are out, Nintendo posted it on Facebook earlier today. As for lefties I'm hearing there is an option to move Pit with the ABXY buttons also if you don't have the circle pad pro.

I remember why I didn't like the first Kid Icarus. You die if you fall off the screen. Which, in the history of gaming, is nothing new but I wished it was like Metroid where the screen scrolled with you whether you are going up or down.
