In Topic: DS #5278: Drawn to Life Collection (Europe)

Unless you have a Rain Man-like attention to detail when it comes to drawing on the DS in tiny boxes, I find people usually end up just playing as one of the template characters, completely ruining one of the games only selling points.

The fact that you have to unlock colors and patterns for your character by playing the game is also pretty jank. You should have all the tools necessary to make whoever you want from the start.

That and the RPG-like overworld parts tend to be overdrawn out and take forever to skip through to get to the platforming levels.

It's easy to say there are only 12 games left in the DS's cycle that are worth playing by ignoring the niche games and games you might right off as shovelware that others might want to play.

It's not a big release by any means, but I'd like to be able to play the horrible House game if it gets released.

But this whole Retro thing has been horrible and stupid and dragged the IQs of all involved down involuntarily. I'm sure by tomorrow, when his warez site threatens to not pay him, retro will announce the next dat update.

Okay, this has been one of the dumbest flame wars I've ever seen.

The DSTT isn't dead and Retro isn't killing it. Yes, he has demanded that others work not be posted here and the mods have gone all Iron Curtain on it for some stupid reason, but it literally took me 30 seconds to google it, find it, and download it.

Yes, it's on a shady site. Yes, it's kind of a douchebag moves on Retro's part to stuff his updates with unnecessary files so it's over 5 megs, knowing the site he's hosting it on only allows X amount of 5 meg + downloads a week. But I'm pretty sure Retro's not going to be releasing 7 updates a week, so you should never have to actually pay for it. If you do find yourself running low on credits, skip an update and get the next one when your free credits reset. Not every update will have a crucial game you absolutely must play now.

It's as easy as that.

This stupid "LET'S BOYCOTT THIS" or "LET'S ATTEMPT BINARY ALCHEMY ON THE SOURCE CODE OF OTHER FLASHCARTS" is a waste of time and energy.
