Description
When running Drascula with the DS port it crashes during the opening cutscene. It may be a side effect of the ARJ unpacker working mostly in RAM and running out when loading large files.
Skipping the cutscene allows getting to gameplay.

And indeed, the intro is 3.9MB, and we fully unpack that into memory. It will not fit into memory, and the biggest file is 4.1MB.
I implemented more graceful processing of this situation, which will simulate the ESC key and print a couple of warnings to the log.
Of course, this could potentially follow with a bugreport that "cutscenes are not played on DS". If this is the case, then I will implement an on-screen message.
Until then, closing this as fixed.
Is there a way to obtain a backtrace?
