Carl Williams writes, "The Nintendo Entertainment System has many iconic titles available for it from the Mario series to the Mega Man games. One series that is just as iconic and also started on the NES is Konami’s Castlevania series. Today, in 1987, gamers were introduced to destroying vampires with a whip and a classic was born. Castlevania is one of those hard as nails games that set the feel for NES games in the 80′s and gamers ate it up."
10 years gone by without a new Castlevania title. Now that Konami is considering stuff other than Pachinko, this series deserves a new game.
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.”
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.👍
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.
During the Dead By Daylight Year 8 Anniversary event, it was revealed that a new collaboration with Castlevania is coming to the game.
Konami's highly rare Castlevania: The Arcade has finally been preserved, and everyone can soon get to play it for free.
It was actually 1986...

Wow... I was only 4.. going on 32. Loved Castlevania
nice, i just started a new playthrough of SOTN, it's been a while.
I love the castlevania series! I remember this game but I was only 5 or 6 years old when my bro got it for our Nintendo. too hard for me at the time but I remember enjoying watching my bro play. I still remember one night I watched him play for a couple hours and then he had to leave. He told me to leave the Nintendo turned on and don't change the game. Well he didn't come back by the time it was my "bed time" and I panicked because house rules said everything goes off before bed lol. So, I panic, turn it off, and felt terrible lol. My bro came home a little while after and my guilt kept me awake to tell him how sorry I was. Lmao. He was pretty upset, but he forgave me lol. One of my first gaming memories.
I played this game in 87. It's been fun watching all these old games evolve over the years.
