(although the touchscreen is underimplemented and the controls are generally clumsy)

That's one of the things people misunderstand about the DS. The touchscreen is a control option, not a control requirement. And how can teh controls be clumsy for a turn based rpg? XD

EDIT: Playing Mario Strikers Charged Football... holy crap did a Magicarp just roll onto the field just then? O.O
