What Screen do you use playing UMK on the DS?

[mneb430]

Im using the top but im wondering if the bottom works better.

Also, is it ok if I just play the game to chill and have fun, and not worry about combos, I don't have enough patience to learn and use them. Am I still accepted in the community? lol

Not doing crazy combos is fine as long as you don't complain when other players do, or drop cause you lose, lol.

I used the top screen since my hands usually partially covered the bottom screen ( the DS is too small :-( )

 

[Frankiebonez]

I use the top ... sometimes my fingers get in the way like dreemer said.

 

[Sir-Jabs-Alot]

I use top screen

 

[Lin_Kuei_Assassin]

I use the bottom screen, but I just got the game so that could change.

 

[Tim Static]

Top, ftw

 

[O Juggernaut 0]

[Tim Static]

Option screen, at the select a game screen.

 

[LI Maverick]

i use top screen, seems more comphy.

I use the bottom screen just because it's brighter and looks a lot better. I haven't really had any problems with it other than the occasional giant thumb print in the middle of the screen.

 

[Houzi]

I use bottom. I never tried out the top. I'll have to try it out.

Or maybe you have really, really big hands

DS PHAT FTR! 8)

Ha, Ha my friend has "E.T. hands" as he always says so it's funny watching him play a DS, not that a PSP is much better...


P.S. I use the top screen, only problem I have sometimes is when I'm shaking duriing gameplay, the screen will tend to "snap" backwards sometimes and I have to put it back really fast lol

I use the top screen. More clear and Brighter IMO.

No point in using the bottom screen if you can't touch anything.

The Nintendo DS uses separate processors for each screen.

Top Screen - ARM946E-S (ARM9) processor clocked at 67 MHz

Bottom Screen - ARM7TDMI (ARM7) processor clocked at 33 MHz

Weather or not the processor speed of the screens make a noticeable difference in the performance of the game is unknown to me.

Interesting. Did not know that. TY

 

[Shock]

Top Tier

I use the bottom screen as it's default and I am not fat so my fingers don't cover the whole screen lol.

Hmmm...perhaps using the top screen will reduce the slowdown on some stages when playing online. If both players use it, that is. Interesting.

 

[DemonsBoxer]

konqrr can you try it out and send me a private message on the results, being whether it works or not? Thanks in advance.

I used the bottom screen for a long time, but switched a month or so ago.

I think the bottom screen is better because it moves around less when I am hammering run jabs.

 

[-Matt-MK]

Bottom, i started out with bottom and never changed to top, it just seems right.

 

[DemonsBoxer]

I can confirm that there is a lot of difference in lag issues online if you're both using top screen ever since I switched to top screen I've been getting much less lag especially on the river stage and graveyard stages.

 

[Konqrr]

I have noticed an improvement in slowdown since moving from bottom to top screen, but it isn't gone by any means.
