The newest Castlevania game... is a FIGHTING game!

[Sano]

Naw, that shouldn’t be it because, Soma even though technically is the reincarnation of Dracula’s power or soul, they aren’t physically the same and the scifi rule shouldn’t apply to souls. Otherwise stuff like Nightmare/Seigfried in Soul Caliber or Rose/Bison in the SF Alpha games wouldn’t hold water. Granted they don’t but you know what I mean.

Don’t know much about Nightmare/Seig but Rose/Bison is a split of a soul, not a reincarnation (um, even if you go with his good side going into a pregnant lady it’s still not reincarnation really) of a soul and that doesn’t involve Time Travel. Time Travel makes everything way more complicated because people have their own perceptions on how it works and it never makes any freaking sense whatsoever…

Guilty Gear has Axl from the past and Raven and that involves Time Travel, I guess there’s that… No reincarnation though…

Well we can go in circles and I’m really just taking guestimates but for whatever reason, Soma’s not in. Unless he’s hidden or something. Wait until the sequel when they let H.R. Giger take a crack at the designs. :clown:

I’m glad Leon or Soma isn’t in this so that they can’t utterly fuck up their character design.

…good point.

Igarashi has a hard on for Castlevania 3 since forever. That’s why all of the heroes of Castlevania 3 are in this game, including Trevor. So naturally they are taking up quite a few slots. Can’t blame him I guess for catering towards his favorite game. Hell if I was making the game Super Castlevania characters + bosses would take priority, but ohs well…

Grant and Sypha are in this game? It should be pretty decent then.

Grant DaNasty. What an awesome name. IIRC.

[Mixah]

man, this had the potenial to be awesome, but fighting games on the Wii never turn out well

this is probably going to be a waggle fest

isn’t guilty gear on wii? lol

[PozerWolf]

[Rioting_Soul]

Actually, I read on the December issue of Nintendo Power that you can use the Classic Controller or the Gamecube Controller as an option if you don’t want to use the Wii Mote to play. Is it then possible to use the Wii Hori Arcade Stick as well? By the way, this article (preview) is on page 38. Again, ths is December’s issue (with Animal Crossing, City Folk). Man, this is weird to type on my Wii system (my computer crashed and died; I’m using a wireless USB keyboard to type this up).

Ummmm… Rondo of Blood :rolleyes::shake:

…oh, yeah.

WELL I PERFER NON LOLI MARIA.

BTW Castlevania Order of Ecclesia on the DS is dope! Get it if you want to play Shanoa in Judgement. Oh snap I got to go to a town, walk into people’s houses and trek through the woods to get to the next level. Forget about sexy, *“They bringin’ Simon’s Quest back!” * :lovin:

Yeah, I picked up my copy yesterday as well. Wonderful game. (And now I’m on my new computer!):woot:

[WraithGadra]

Castlevania: OoE is indeed wonderful, I’m playing through right now. So is Shanoa the only link-up bonus in Judgement or what?

[Neo_DX90]

I’m loving OoE. I’ve already nearly played the game to death (just need to find one quest item…)

Some new screens are up. It shows Trevor. Not too bad…

Cool! Between how Trevor looks in Curse and this game man Dracula kicked his ass pretty good in Castlevania III. Ditto for Judgement Simon’s jacked up body too. Dracula does not play around. :badboy:

[Neo_DX90]

The Eyepatch is growing on me a bit. I just think to how Issac messed up Trevor in Curse of Darkness, and the fact that he fought Dracs and Hector and company. Maybe an eyepatch isn’t too far-fetched.

Trevor is one of the designs I actually like for this game.

[deadfrog]

Why do all of these new fighting games look so cool?!!

[WraithGadra]

He didn’t have an eyepatch in Curse, did he? Besides, doesn’t Castlevania III happen before Curse?

[Sano]

There was a scar on his face in Curse. I think it was either below or through an eye but he had both eyes? That’s prolly what Obata is working with.

And yeah Castlevania III happens before Curse. Which is what I was sayin’ kinda. Trevor fights Dracula, gets jacked up during the fight even though he wins (officially Sypha, Grant, and Alucard all helped him even though it is impossible to accomplish this in the game let alone meet all three in one playthrough), appears in Curse jacked up.

Never got around to finishing Curse (Um, not a fan of the 3D Castlevanias… the manga isn’t too bad though) so I’ve only seen Trevor appear in the game, don’t know what becomes of him there.

I don’t expect much from this game. Albeit it lookin interesting, I have my doubts. I just hope Iga came up with some decent gameplay for us to enjoy a Castlevania feel to it. I don’t mind waggle, but I do mind overwaggle.
