being used forcefully. If the in-game movements do not match the Circle Pad input, use the
CIRCLE PAD option in System Settings to calibrate the input (page 65).

the buttons or Touch Screen, turn the system o, then start it again on the Circle Pad calibration screen
by pressing the POWER Button while pressing and holding L Button + R Button + Y Button.
