Gameplay, music, graphics, controls….that shit is timeless. Though, on a personal note, my favorite CV game will always be Super CV IV on SNES. Great game, and it led to even greater things with it’s sequel, Symphony of the Night. Kinda the same as “why haven’t they released Bloodlines for Genesis on VC?”īut I digress.

Why this bothers me, is because they took the time to translate (to my knowledge) the original version of the game that you can unlock in the PSP remake, so why they couldn’t have just used that, who the hell knows.
And speaking of lazy, while I was stoked that they finally released Rondo of Blood on the Wii’s Virtual Console service, I was at the same time immediately disappointed that they didn’t bother translating it at all. CD music aside, I really don’t see how Konami couldn’t have given the SNES a direct port of this game, instead of the watered down “meh” that was “Dracula X”. I love Richter, but playing as Maria makes the game a bit more enjoyable at times, considering her ability to double-jump, and thus be able to CONTROL yourself in mid-air! My only two grips related to this game at all, are:ġ. I was stuck there for a while, even had to use a continue >-_> and lost his head!!? lol, he must have been running really fast for that to happen! The second stage was extremely similar to the first stage of the first Castlevania game! You fought ghouls and you were inside the castle and it looked the same! Just better graphics DĪll of a sudden though I got chased by this giant beast! That freaked me out.īut I got away, and looked back to find that the giant beast had run into a wall. You still collect orbs after each boss battle at the end of the stage like in the first game: The first boss was a fire breathing flying purple dragon-thingy, a step up from the bat ^_^ You control Richter Belmont, and he has a whip just like Simon and the others, and you collect hearts to use your special weapons, like the knife, axe, holy water etc. The graphics were stunning, you can really tell that they used the full potential of Super CD-ROM! D It’s a big difference from the HU-card games. Good thing for me though, since I can’t read kanji fluently but I can understand German! :D Then I realized it was only released in Japan and seeing the japanese subtitles made me come to my senses and understand that this was the way it was supposed to be.
