And they shut down the official page as well, since apparently it went offline. Anyone know what happened precisely? I still luckily have the app on my phone but damn, it's a shame that something like this happened.
 
A pity that it left one of the most optimized Nintendo DS emulators for android that was available in the play store although it is possible to download on websites related to apps .apk although it is not the same as in the play store. but, well.
 
It was the sole reason I could experience Nintendo DS games (even on my 2014 smartphone!) due to a combination of lack of funds and a rather critical visual disability that doesn't allow me to play portable devices all that well.

What a sad day.
 
Yeah saw the article on GBAtemp too.
 
I think this project was stopped out of fear of Nintendo because this emulator was and is a thorn in Nintendo's side.

No, the dev said he finished the emulator development, made the app free, Google removed it from the store because of new policies (something about the developers needing to give their real identities)

I find this so sad, I'm sure the maker of drastic could have also made a 3DS emulator !

HAHAHAHA, yeah, no. You think it is that easy to make an emulator?


If someone needs the latest apk of DraStic, get it here: https://archive.org/details/drastic-ds-emulator-r2.6.0.4a-arm-v7a--arm64-v8a-apk
