Set traps, destroyable environments, enemy monsters interfere with battle
are a turn off. I want a serious fighter, not a bad fighting adventure/party beat em up.
Sounds interesting, subweapons could be like an arcana/groove/ism sort of deal. Fast but weak knives, anti air axes, slow but powerful crosses, lends itself well (in theory) to fighters.
Oh and mildly disappointing that its 3d.
Ah man, why on the damn Wii? =/

why does Simon look like a chick? whatever happened to the US NES boxarts of badass steroid Simon?
Eric fucking Lecarde from Bloodlines/Vampire Killer.
^Ayami Kojima happened.
I feel like this is going to be a Castlevania spin on Mace: The Dark Age, just with Wii-graphics.
Well technically, that shitty Conan art-style “happened” to the original CV art by Kojima, not the other way around.
But yeah, this game looks like it’s gonna suck. And it could be on PS3/360 in HD with a pack-in fighting stick and I’d still have the same feeling.
Really excited, but I too vomit at hearing and seeing it being 3D, blech.
Big Dracula fan!
Mother fuck yes. Super Jump = :rock::rock::rock:
He’d be like the Kilik of this game yo.
Maria and Drac seem to have gotten the better art of the bunch.
Too bad Maria’s boobs have fallen off the face of the earth. D: Which version are they basing her on this time?
2008 is very, very surprising.
Doesn’t look like it’ll be that good, but I hope I’m wrong. Will buy it anyway.
I wanna rape Maria goddammit. D:
Me too! 
Pretty exciting news and totally out of left field! '08’s the best year for fighters ever! :tup:
Takeshi Obata of Death Note rumored to be doing the character designs? WOW JUST WOW! :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:
Agreed.
now looking closer at the art, I hate this anime Simon with a passion. i’m one of the westerners who grew up with the bad ass Simon in armor and steroids of the 80s.
do not want
I’ve never had a good experience with 3D fighters. Make this 2D, and I’ll buy it.
. . .although, I probably won’t be able to resist. The very idea of playing Alucard or Belmont would kick so much ass. Put Julius from Aria of Sorrow in there, please.
If it’s Smash Bros like, then I expect this game to be bad ass.
You mean if it’s Melee-like. Because Melee is about as amazing as GGXX in terms of greatness. Brawl is utter crap.
I am thinking more simple-like, not necessarily melee (mashf-friendly) like. But I think it would add some element if it had smash bros elements, like stage platforms or something that would have the stage be a part of the game.
