Akumajo Densetsu: the first one, and it is nearly 2nd to best version of this song and better than the american version.
Castlevania 3: inferior to the original but still a pretty cool.
Order of Ecclesia: my least favorite version mainly due to how it sounds like one of the PS2 Castlevania games, but still is an awesome Castlevania song.
Adventure Rebirth: OMG SO AWESOME!!!! THE BEST CASTLEVANIA SONG AND THE BEST VERSION OF THIS SONG!!!!! IT PWNS SO F***ING MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every one of these collections I listen to, it's all good and I love the music and then ReBirth comes along and SHITS on me. I don't know what it is but every song that's in that game is not as good as other versions of itself.
It's beyond me how anybody prefers the NES version of CV3 after hearing the Famicom version with the VRC6 channels. That's like saying you prefer to hear Beethoven's Ninth played on the demo of a Casio keyboard at the mall. There's just no comparison. What's better about having a bastardized version of a tune? Having said that, I can appreciate the more minimalist sound of the NES versions, but you're only hearing half of the music.
As far as the later games' renditions of the tunes, ehh...I t
@scrimpeh Well its pretty butchered imo, the bass line is messed up, that awsome synth sound that peaks up and down is almost completely inaudible, the intro isnt as epic but WORST of all it just sounds too upbeat, almost carnival-like, to me (these comparisons made to the CV3 version)
Ecclesia went in a slightly different direction than the other DS titles. Now quit your whining and enjoy the series. If you like Portraits more than Ecclesia then go play that. If you like Ecclesia more than Portraits play that instead. All the games in the series have their pros and cons. Even the 64 ones.
@Pixelnatoru exactly. Why are there so many idiots on youtube that think their opinion overrides others. (don't get me wrong I'm not saying that your opinions are wrong just don't say I'M RIGHT YOU'RE WRONG SO SHUT UP AND GO AWAY accept it instead)
Dude, don't even go there. Classic is definitly the mark of a true fan. Id rather play a hard and fun game, than a sissy game that you can take20 billion hits and still live.
The ReBirth tracks remind me of Konami's 90's arcade titles. I assume both were made using similar sound equipment (the KO or K0 series, if memory serves well.)
the rebirth version is very power metal :P

Game boy advance : Circle of the moon, Harmony of dissonance, Aria of sorrow (total 3)

@MysteryEzekude It's not fantastic, but it's not the version from Order of Ecclesia either. This one would be the middle ground.

I love the OoE version. I get all pumped up whenever I hear it. It's especially energizing when you head into Large Cavern.

How can you seriously credit these games as being Wii releases? The virtual console is just a bunch of really bad emulations.

i think the rebirth one could be the epic theme to the very last boss in a NDS game where the boss is just completly made up of darkness

while the OoE sounds really good, it KILLED the epic intro. Doesn't set the song up right very well.
