Did You Use the PSP Stylus? Was It Worth It for the Few Games That Supported It?

I recently came across some old PSP accessories, and it got me thinking about the stylus that was available for the system. Did anyone actually use it? There were only a handful of games that supported it, but was it a useful tool for those titles, or was it just an unnecessary add-on?

I remember the PSP stylus - it was useful for titles like Wipeout Pure and Field Commander, allowing for more precise controls, but ultimately redundant for most games.

I found the stylus invaluable for the underrated gem Echochrome, where precise line drawing required more accuracy than the analog nub could provide. Similarly, the digital comic reader became my preferred way to consume comics on the go thanks to the stylus making page navigation feel like reading a physical book. These niche applications justified keeping it around even though I'd often go months between uses, representing the PSP's identity as a device with hidden depths beyond mainstream gaming.
