>>42382190>he likes those disgusting sprite distortionsThe only reason those ugly sprite distortions exist is due to the extremely low native resolution of the DS display. Try playing the game via emulator at 720p+ and you'll see the sprites look a million times better. Remember, sprites in general are designed with a fixed pixel grid in mind. When you use scaling and distortion effects, the detail becomes extremely blurred on a sub-200p screen. It is common sense, anon.
