So I've just started osu! and was considering on buying a tablet pen but the problem lies here, I am left handed but i'm used to using mouse with the right hand and I write with left hand. I guess some of you guys might also have this problem so I am thinking on whether buying a tablet pen or not. If I buy the pen should I use it on my right or left hand? Currently I'm used to playing with mouse on right hand and using ZX key using left hand. Thanks :)

Whichever hand you chose you will adjust to it over time.

I'd also advise you to not just buy a tablet for osu! only.

Well a bamboo just for osu! is ok (depending on your financial situation of course) but anything above that is just overkill if its just for osu!

Well tablet works either way and you should probably use your writing hand, but really you can use either.

Stick with whatever hand you feel comfortable with. I'd recommend your left hand for tablet since you've used that for writing it should be more stable and accurate for moving across the screen and just train your right hand to hit a bit faster. That's what we all have to do in the end. (Besides, lefties rock)

People pay thousands of dollars for Bemani controllers, a couple hundred on a tablet for a game you plan to spend a lot of time on isn't a terrible investment. Just know what you're doing and know it's what you want. It'd be a waste if you find you prefer mouse-play.
If you're financially just it shouldn't be an issue, if not it shouldn't be a high priority.

Lol it depends. Is mouse really bugging you? Cuz I switched to tablet because I didn't have my mouse at my uncle's house, and then I sorta did well with the tablet.

Use your writing hand for the tablet.

I prefer to use a mouse, honestly.

Firstly I must commend you on actualy spelling "osu!" correctly, rather than the usual Osu!.
