Typically, resistive touchscreens (like the Disgo 6000) don't support multi-point input (not to mention they are also generally horrendously inaccurate when it comes to finger/thumb input). You would have a very hard time playing Graal on it, because you would only be able to walk, or use the sword/bomb, but not at the same time. That's if the screen input is even accurate to walk properly, since resistive touchscreens don't like moving input much either.

Resistive touchscreens just don't belong on consumer-oriented tablets, and there's a good reason that capacitive touchscreens are used in most touch devices. Nokia managed to totally ruin the otherwise neat N900 phone just by putting a resistive touchscreen in it.
