Figured I'd throw up a quick guide of a couple of menus so that people don't accidentally delete their characters like I did:( Feel free to add your own guides! Anyway, here goes:
MAIN MENU:
-First three options are character slots, obviously
-Fourth option deals with friend codes and such
-Fifth option configures your DS for wifi, same as in Mario Kart, Pokemon, Metroid, whatever else
FRIEND CODES MENU
-First option shows everyone you've added as a friend
-Second option allows you to add a friend code as well as a username associated with that code
-Third option allows you to change the name associated with your code
-Bottom screen displays your own friend code and name
CHARACTER MENU
-First option is Story Mode
-Second option is local multiplayer
-Third option is online multiplayer
-Fourth option is character customisation (you can modify your character whenever you want)
-Fifth option gives you a yes/no prompt to delete your character
CUTSCENE/DIALOGUE STUFF
-Press Start to skip cutscenes
-Press X to rapidly skip through dialogue
-Pressing Y lets you read anything you might have missed by scrolling back with the d-pad
IN-GAME TOUCHSCREEN STUFF
-Top-left corner is obvious - shows your HP, PP and level
-Top-right corner shows your Action Palette - the icons are bound to the Y, B and A buttons respectively. Hold R to bring up the secondary Action Palette
-Bottom-left corner - this window shows you the name and a couple of stats on items you're about to pick up, you also get prompts when someone comes online here
-Bottom-right corner - Map of the current area, shows exits, chests and other stuff
-Uppermost button, next to map - brings up the Pictochat editor, touch to open
-Lower button, next to map - brings up your cache of saved/predetermined Pictochat pics, touch to open
-See the empty strip between all those boxes? That's where other players' HP is displayed.
IN-GAME PAUSE MENU
-First option is your inventory, which is split into four categories: support items, weapons, armour/mags and technique items (I think). Left/right switches categories, up/down to select items, L/R to view info on selected items, A to equip/use, B to cancel
-Second option is (I think) a quick-equip menu, not sure
-Third option allows you to customise the Action Palette
-Fourth option deals with Mag stuff - feeding and all that junk
-Fifth option is to do with quests in single-player mode
-Sixth option allows you to save or quit
More to come!
