its a remake made in 1993 on another system that was japanese exclusive. then the producer thought about how people outside of japan missed it and made an improved version on the PSX.
It sucks that he takes damage in any part of his body when he transforms. In the original Castlevania you had to keep beating him in the head, or no damage. From what I see the arrange mode is a lot easier
I have the most mixed feelings on this game, the improved graphics were nice but what made it great for me was the smoother and more responsive controls, and importantly, you don't fly back when getting hurt. I just absolutely despised the new levels they added, I would like to see remakes of all the old games. Hell, a remake of SOTN with graphics like Dracula X Chronicles on PSP would be a dream come true.
@Warhawk556 I'd rather have it on 3DS, so I don't have to deal with shit like memory cards and disks, plus they've never brought SotN to nintendo so i'd be nice. It doesn't have to be in 3D either.
@K1llerSpades it's Simon, this is a remake of the MSX 2 version of Castlevania called Akumajō Dracula (aka: Vampire Killer) which was basically was a alternate version of the NES Castlevania, with a few different bosses, different levels, and alternate versions/designs of the NES levels. it's actually quite good.
@Evilmonkey66699 Correction: this is a remake of the X68000 version (an old Japanese computer by Sharp). The MSX 2 version of Akumajou Dracula is very different than this - it looks like the original NES graphics, but has keys and adventure-quest elements. Yes, it is quite good.
@davintheraven yeah I remembered that after I already posted that comment, but thanks for correcting my mistake especially in a polite way that is very appreciated on my end.
Thank god they took away the unfair Nintendo hard. To this day I still can't beat the Nintendo version, I am afraid of playing this, because I usually ends shouting at the TV screen... ho ho ho.
Hmm, resembles the Dracula in Super Castlevania IV which is ironically also a remake of the first Castlevania, duuhhhhhhh. Just answered my own question. LOL!
@jackjackteeth Well, the main challenge in this game is doing everything within the time limit. RoB and other Castlevanias usually didn't have any time limit.
Wow! This Dracula doesn't mess around! From a classic POV, his first form was pretty impressive gameplay-wise. Fireballs raining DOWN on you rather than TOWARD you, rapid teleportation than earlier incarnations...and don't get me started on that second form!
You'd figure after so many games that they'd change his attacks and forms up(which they have but not much). Well the old 2D ones particularly. Another good rush and the descriptions always give me a chuckle too.
I still have this game, I remember I used to play the Original Mode... I could beat the game twice, but couldn't get past Death in the third game. It gets REALLY freakin' hard as you proceed.
I almost did it without upgrading the whip, but I always get hit! It makes me made! >:(
