Tribute to Castlevania composer Kinuyo Yamashita

Alpha Omega Radio: "In celebration of Japanese video game music composer Kinuyo Yamashita’s birthday, it is an honor to present to you this tribute to her music from Konami’s original Castlevania for the NES. In 1986, Yamashita composed music for Castlevania when she was only a teenager and had the challenge of working under strict hardware constraints. In addition, this also happened to be her debut work as composer on a video game. Her now iconic Castlevania compositions “Vampire killer” and “Wicked Child” would end up influencing all the later music of the series well as inspire multiple remixes over the years."

It’s more than about time it’s way overdue. Please make a 2D Castlevania with item/armor/weapon collectibles and transmog as this is the one series my wife will play but it has to have item collecting or she will skip it.

Lords of shadow 1 was such an amazing game and they dropped the ball with the sequel

"What is a name? A miserable little pile of letters."

Seriously, the games in the From Software's Soulsborne series are the best 3D Castlevania games we will ever get. From Bloodborne to Elden Ring, Konami will never approach that level of quality and give Castlevania its due respect. EVER! "Enough talk, call yourself a Belmont in the Character Creator, HAVE AT YOU!" Without question.

As for a new 2D entry? I mean, sure, why not? What the hell, right? It's about damn time indeed.

I hate being that guy, but I think it’s, “What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets.”

SimpleSlave200d ago

Um, actually mine is the original line in the Script. But Konami, being Konami, decided to change it to "What is a man? A miserable 'little' pile of secrets." I know, they ruined it...

So, while I know you hate to be that guy, you still missed the "little" part. It happens.

And, yeah, I know. You're welcome.👍

@SimpleSlave

LMAO… man, thanks for the laugh. 👍

I'm glad you enjoyed it. On the other hand, it seems like some ppl were so offended by my Line being so OP that they decided to side with Konami. But these are the same people that bought Contra: Rogue Corps Day One and convinced themselves it was the best Contra. So I take no offense.

It happens.

Might get a Castlevania pachinko machine.
