I have this, and yes I do believe it is the cheapest Wacom product in the current line and is good for osu!DieOrYouWillDie wrote:

If your looking for a cheap osu tablet, the following is a great choice: http://www.amazon.com/uDraw-Game-tablet ... ords=udraw
If you buy the ps3 version, you can install drivers that allow you to use it as a mouse on PC. (here http://brandonw.net/udraw/ ) It works perfectly, and though I am shit tier at osu, [ Depression ] was able to use it as well (roommates) and was able to do well with it. Of course we each have wacom tablets, which are obviously better than this cheap tablet.
Oh yea, its $12.
Worth it if you've ever wanted to try out a tablet.

Just wondering
If I buy the Bamboo mte-450, will there be much of a difference to the CTL-470?
Also, if I buy a pen made for the CTL-470 (GEN 3) will it also work for the mte-450 (GEN 1)?
Thanks

Has anyone tried playing osu! on a cintiq? I know it's way too expensive and impractical but just wondering if anyone's ever gotten to try one.

All GEN pen's are only compatible with the tablet they're made for
IppE
Does anyone have any experience with this?

I'm currently using it, not doing to great so far... Wondering if it's because I bought a cheaper tablet, or if It's just me adjusting to it.
I'll give it a week or two to see which case it is.

Has anyone had good experiences with the bamboo splash? It's the only one I can find in canada for under 100 by wacom.
I also found the bamboo capture for 85$, the splash I can get for 61$ with tax, is the capture worth the extra 24$ or are they basically the same?

It doesn't really matter, I'm using a 30$ tablet, with no major issues.faggotfaggot wrote:

The only advantage that tablets have for Osu! Is that they feature absolute tracking, in higher end tablets they may be more accurate in terms of pressure etc. which is useful for art applications but useless for Osu!...
Bamboo Splash would be a good choice, it has everything you need, and all the features that are useful for Osu! gameplay without the cost of the higher end models.
Good hover distance
Area change on tablet (on my tablet I have to change my screens resolution, which is annoying)
No latency issues.

I live in europe, and I cant buy the Splash or other products that were in OP's topic,
So my question is :
Is the Bamboo Pen and Touch as good as the 99 dollar equivalent Bamboo or is it totally different?
Also what is the difference between the Pen and touch and the Fun S pen and touch?

Thanks in regards

I purchased a 'Bamboo Pen' tablet yesterday. I hope it arrives soon!
It arrived! but I'm currently staying at my boyfriend's, so I won't be able to try it out until Saturday. I can post what I think about the tablet then if anyone is interested in buying that model.

What a wonderful guide explaining tablets! I may consider buying a tablet
I've been using my tablet for a couple of days now and it hasn't exactly been a pleasant experience, I find it very difficult to get used to (which is understandable) and I've been noticing the cursor gets jittery when the pen nib comes into light or quick contact with the tablet. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong.
anyone know how this would fare?

I should save my money for a tablet now...
I just recent;y purchased a Bamboo Pen & Touch 3rd Gen (I think it's a Connect).
It is my first time using something like this so bear with me... I'm not certain whether i should be hovering over the touchpad when playing a map or dragging with the pen and what is the ideal playing area on the touchpad.
Any experienced users with time to help out will be much appreciated thanks

Hover, it might feel weird for a bit but it is very worth it. Allows you to move faster and puts less wear and tear on your tablet/pen nibs.LLOsu wrote:

I guess you have a point, just the fact that using a pen from using a mouse is a massive step got to have wrist movements and i've always had problems holding pens weirdly as a child
Just a few games using it is tough to get used, i guess practice makes perfect!

does anyone have any clue when a new bamboo tablet model might be coming out? prediction that is. it's been a while since the latest generation came out.
A little ambitious for the same 10 year old tablet in a new wrappertheowest wrote:

They'll push another one out when they find a decent whistle & bell to bolt onto it. It was mostly about wireless this time around.
Does anyone write with their left hand but use their mouse with the right? Or vice-versa. Because I do, and I'm unsure of whether to get a tablet. My rhythm sucks with my right hand, so pressing Z/X is going to be difficult if I have to use the stylus with my left hand. For those that have a different mouse-hand to their pen-hand, which hand do you use your tablet stylus with?
Sorry if that's confusing, I don't think I can word it any better.

Will I be able to hover my pen with the bamboo splash?
by hovering I meant around 1cm

I'm a lefty who uses my right for the mouse, and I got a tablet in March. My left hand is still faster with Z/X than my right hand is with Num1/Num2, but I've made considerable improvement in the past few months. I have my mouse DPI at exactly double my tablet area, and as of right now my accuracy on both are about equal (but the tablet is a bit more consistent). I researched and got a zero-acceleration mouse so the difference between them aren't as big (aside from the feel), but assuming you have a more basic mouse or a laser mouse, you'll notice a big boost in accuracy with the tablet once you get used to it.Androgynous wrote:

It doesn't matter if you're using a Pen&Touch or a normal 'Pen' tablet when playing osu! right? (Wacom Bamboo)
The "Touch" feature is multitouch with your fingers. Since you'll be using the pen when playing osu!, it won't matter. (My Bamboo Capture is a Pen&Touch tablet, and TBH I've disabled the multitouch feature because I never use it).kuigliii wrote:

Also I just started osu, if I do end up getting a tablet, it will more then likely be Wacom Bamboo Capture Pen and Touch Tablet
Thanks OP!
Thanks OP!
I play CTB quite often, but never played osu!standard, really. This month I played a little of it, but I hate playing it with the mice/mouse, and I love playing in my cousin's android tablet... So, thanks for the guide, looking forward about buying one.
Anyone use the buttons on their tablet??? Just wondering because my Bamboo Fun has 4 nice buttons on it, and I figured they might be better than wearing out my keyboard (plus I can control everything from my lap.)
My Bamboo Capture has buttons, but they're fairly stiff and have no travel distance. Assuming the Bamboo Fun has the same type of clicky buttons as mine, IMO it wouldn't be a viable choice. Your fingers would get more tired in comparison to just using a keyboard.Girochin007 wrote:

Oh, and if you have the money, go for a mechanical keyboard. It'll last longer than a normal keyboard, and it'll benefit your playing/typing. If that takes up too much space, you could try a Razer Orbweaver mechanical keypad (I'd recommend the Stealth Edition if you're looking into getting that, since it uses lighter keyswitches than the standard edition).
Could anyone possibly clarify the differences between Wacom Bamboo models? I see CTH-470, CTH-470s, CTL-470 being thrown around mainly, but on Amazon.co.uk there are plenty more than that, some being very much cheaper than others.
Is Wacom Bamboo Pen Graphics Tablet (the Connect?) a common tablet choice, or are the differently coloured ones with buttons (which seem to be the Pen & Touch series)?
From some more research, I've come to the conclusion that the CTL-470 is a pen-only tablet, while CTH-470 includes touch input also. What about the 's' and 'k' prefixes - what do they indicate?

Got a Bamboo Pen and Touch off ebay for $30, hardly used. I'm a happy camper. CTL-460. They're good for osu right?
Now if I can figure out how to play well with it without my wrist shaking.

I'd like to know this aswell. Also, I can only find the CTL-470K-NL in my country, and not the "Wacom Bamboo Splash Pen Tablet (CTL471)"The Muffin Man wrote:

What is the difference with the CTL471 an the CTL470?, and then the 'K-NL' behind it, is just a country tag or something? The Wacom / Bamboo site is unclear aswell. I won't need the touch function on my tablet so I won't need CTH.
As far as I can tell, the difference between the CTL470 and CTL471, as well as the several different letter suffixes, is just the marketing and/or the included art software (such as the CTH-470s Bamboo Manga). The -NL is a country tag though.Xhomas wrote:
