FPGAzumSpass is working on it. I believe they also occasionally post on this forum? But see:

Basically, a Nintendo DS FPGA core that will be ported to the MiSTer is being worked on. However, one caveat is that the MiSTer doesn't have enough internal memory to support all the RAM used by the DS, so the creator will need to sacrifice VRAM speed to get it to work on the MiSTer, which may cause lower frame rates in some games that access it a lot. The linked write-up from the author above goes into more detail about that.
