How often do you lose your ds stylus?

All of the time because the stylus is loose. I lost the original and have had a hard time trying to find the correct size to fit in the slot, so now I don't even have a stylus to fit in the hole. I'm glad the Switch has a touch screen where you can use your finger instead.

I never lose mine for good. If I do happen to misplace it nearby I notice it almost immediately and look for it so that I don’t lose it for good.
 
i lost it and replaced it once.
After that, i gave up replacing it.
Sometimes I use my finger or I use my apple pen.
I must look really absurd using such a long pen on a small ds lol

I wonder why i never lose my apple pen?
 
I never lost them since I just put them back in the slot when I wasn't using them.
 
I never lost a stylus!
...well atleast I can't remember ever losing one. I guess that's something :blush:
 
Yeah,lost the original one and have never found it. I have no idea where it went still.... This thread came in good timing because now I lost the replacement stylus recently. I cannot find it either.:( They are just so easy to lose because of how little and loose they are. But buying replacement packs is a good idea!
 
I don't lose my stylus, they just magically disappear into thin air....never to be seen again.
 
never because its always in my mouth when im using my 3ds
i dont actually use the stylus​
 
Amazingly enough I have never lost a stylus. I have misplaced it quite a number of times, but have never lost it so that it can't be found. I have at least 5 backup stylus's anyway :p
 
If ever that is! I rarely lose mine and if I do, it's just for a few minutes at most? I don't like being without it so I go on a deep search once I'm in that situation. ;__;

Do you buy new styluses? Do you buy them cause you lose yours often or just cause of the color/design?

Recently I got some mario themed ones cause it was a set that came with 3ds game cases which I really needed so yeahhhh. (also one had a yoshi on it and I love yoshi so there's that too!)

I have one 3DS stylus that I know where it is off and on. lol I just found it again, which I'm happy. :) And each time I tell myself I'll be more careful. But I'm not. ;)
 
I have a few styluses~some are pen shaped ones which I use if I can't find the one I usually have. I usually just drop mine - inbetween bed sheets or the floor - cause it comes out of the ds holder so easily.
 
Never, but I haven't been playing too frequently. I like to keep mine in the slot more than not and sometimes I use my fingers on the touchpad. :o
 
I've managed to lose mine every few months and actually bought some replacements, though I did end up finding the one I had lost after the new ones arrived. It all works out though, I intend to actually stick to putting the styluses back in their proper holders inside the consoles and now I actually have a stylus for each console again.
 
I'll loose it for a few mins before finding it again, but I also loose it frequently.

I did however loose my silver extend stylus at a grocery store. Now for both of my systems, I use the black one that came with the XL. I do have replacements but I'm pretty sure they're for the Nintendo I, cause that's what it says on the box.
 
Honestly today I searched everywhere for 10 straight minutes for it before realizing I was holding it in my mouth so
 
i keep it in the slot for it and have a bunch of spares, but i do tend to lose them fairly often. most of the time they're just under my bed though
