Speculation on the Nintendo Power issue and interviews with Koji Igarashi leads to what My Wii News thinks might be the potential announcement of Castlevania for the Wii.
The July 2008 issue of Nintendo Power spills the beans on the recent title in the Castlevania series: Order of Ecclesia for the DS, a game hinted at by the previous issue. Something didn't sit right while paging through the issue, however. There were too many squeaks in the pages, words that were taunting my mind with that "just you wait, we have something big we can't tell you" feeling.
Starting with the Pulse section, devoted to letters from readers, I found two interesting tidbits. First came a reader named "Squi-G!!!" that picks his favorite games out of a hat, apparently. Talking about the idea of picking a personal Best Game Ever (BGE), Editor Chris Slate responds to the reader's inquiry with "On this subject, keep an eye out for something really big next issue."
"BJG93? also wrote in asking about Nintendo's devotion to the hardcore crowd and M-rated titles. Slate responded with "All I can say is… don't miss next issue. And bring extra underwear."
Aside from Slate's need to pimp the oncoming issues of NP, something else is itchy here. Since the next issue is August 2008, the big post-E3 issue, we can assume some big Wii titles will be announced and detailed.
Other clues to lead us to rational speculation:
Read on for more info.
Nintendo has announced the SNES and Super Famicom games gracing the Nintendo Switch Online library this month, and there are some gems to enjoy.
Strange headline, as I thought the star of the show was Super RType. I almost bought RType Dimensions EX this last month and was just thinking, man I wish we had the SNES one somewhere on Switch. That's where I got my start w the series and I was beyond excited to see it drop this week!
Following the Wii U and 3DS servers being taken offline, Call of Duty Black Ops 2 and Ghosts are officially dead.
Call of Duty players are jumping into Black Ops 2 for the final time before its Wii U servers go offline for good.
Please announce this soon. A Castlevania Wii could have so much potential, and would be great for third party support, and hardcore titles.
As long its 2D i will freaking kill people for it =D
Also....what is the Wii option in the DS menu screen of C:OoE?..........
ive never played any of the castlevania series, but if there is one for the wii, i'll definitely pick it up. Everyone says its great.
I bought Symphony of the Night on Xbox Live and I mostly played it out of my 360 library (containing halo3, COD4, gears).
The game is fun.
I hope they bring something like "The New Super Mario" on the DS where it is a 3D title, in a side scrolling fashion (which they need a new 3D side scrolling Mario title also).
There is something about a side scrolling platformer that makes me groovy.
