Super Bomberman R getting Castlevania, Silent Hill and Gradius characters

Super Bomberman R just received a fairly major free update, but Konami is already looking ahead to what’s next for the game. The company revealed that in a future update, three characters from classic Konami franchises will be added to the game: Simon Belmont from Castlevania, Pyramid Head from Silent Hill and Vic Viper from Gradius.

Screw you Konamj for letting Silent Hill and Castlevania go dormant in the first place

Yeah, we need Nintendo to buy Castlevania, at least, to get some more 2D entries pumped out.
I'd take a sequel to Order of Ecclesia, personally; Shanoa was a bad-ass and the variety of powers was great, as was the bumped up difficulty.

Castlevania does NOT belong their
also they didn't make a 2D Metroid in like a decade

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

Castlevania DOES belong there, just as much as, if not moreso, than anyone can claim they belong with Sony due to the one superb 2D entry the PSP got.
Many of its best entries were on DS, and the very root of the series was on the NES.
It would be like returning home.

And yeah, Nintendo does need to step on it with a new Metroid, but there are rumors of a new 2D entry of that in the works...

I know & I finished all the DS entries + aria of sorrow
but they were made by konami NOT LAMEtendo
I don't even think they're capable to an entry as good & deep .

and no i love metroid but it's not as good , they'll just turn it to another boring soulless casual game .

We need Nintendo to make a new 2D Metroid game. That's more likely than Konamj even considering selling an IP

All this done is remind me how mad I am over Silent Hills :(

Konami continue to soil the Silent Hill brand.
