USK: Digital Leisure daring to put Dragon's Lair on DSiWare

If you like FMV games, the iPhone port of Space Ace is something of a revelation. It's the full laserdisc game, in much better visual quality than most ports, on a handheld platform for five bucks. If you don't, it's just another FMV game, and everyone knows those aren't real games anyway.

A German USK rating suggests that Digital Leisure is planning to port its predecessor, Dragon's Lair, to DSiWare. While we have no doubt that the DS hardware can run the game -- in fact, a Dragon's Lair conversion has been in progress for years by United Coders, and we wouldn't be surprised if that's what this is -- the file size is an issue. Space Ace on iPhone takes up 243MB, which is much larger than any DSiWare game. We hope Digital Leisure comes up with a solution for this issue other than porting the NES Dragon's Lair.

Why does the USK always reveal games? Aren't they bound to secrecy or something?

I love Dragon's Lair!! I have Space Ace on my iphone and it is perfect!

What I would like to know is when will there be NES games on DSiware?? I would be downloading like crazy. Can anyone answer why Nintendo has not? Yea there is the VC on Wii but to be able to bring SMB with me would be awesome!
