I doubt it.

To be honest, if you REALLY wanted analogue, they could put a picture of an analogue stick on the bottom screen and, like that Pac'n'roll game, have you use the stylus to move it and control the top screen.

What the DS really needs though is some sort of wrist clamp so that you can use the stylus and one half of the buttons at the same time.

Patent Pending, theives.

They'll have a hard job getting that claim to stick since the PSP already has an analogue stick. I agree most of the people here would still go 'wow' though, just cos it's Nintendo.

In that photo it looks massive but Isn't it like 2 SP's side by side?

I think after a touch screen we are asking a bit much to have analogue control stick as well. Just over-complicating the thing with options.

How do we know it won't be analogue?

Analogue doesn't specifically mean one of those stick things...

The touch screen itself works in a sorta analogue way...

How do we know how big it really is?

Maybe the d-pad is analogue - like the PS2 d-pad. Or maybe I'm wrong...
