Alright everyone, this is the OFFICIAL (and by that i mean i just felt like saying that) thread for Castlevania DS. Discuss it, Love on it, Bash it, Trash it, whatever. anyway feel free to put your two cents in about it, before we spend the rest of our money on it. Anyway, on with the discussion!!!
 
i personally think that it looks schweeeeet. The map on the upper screen is going to be a gigantor help to us oldschool Castlevaniars (if thats a word). The touchscreen also is going to be pretty inginuitive, while not taking away from the overall value of the game. Also it's going to be sweet just 'cuz ITS CASTLEVANIA!!!!

haha u may be right, but if they have a thread for Zelda on GCN everywhere over the internet, i think it'll be fine. lol
 
I've never really been able to get into the Castlevania series. They just don't appeal to me I guess.

it is a direct sequel to Aria of Sorrow
 
It doesn't look all that impressive... I really want to see a game that challenges the DS' graphics. Oh well. I dont play Castlevania games that much, although I do have one for GBA. Maybe I'll pick this up if it is good.

lame..

needs original castlevania dootdootdootdoot.. ba da dada, ba dadada, doot doot dootdootdootdoot music!
 
I have to say I'm not a fan of playing on the bottom screen. I'd much rather play on the top screen.

Oh well, Castlevania is the only reason I bought a DS, so hopefully it doesn't disappoint.

WOW!!!! someone is extremely hyper..... take some medecine
 
I never gave Castlevania a chance. Then one day I got Castlevania: HOD for a cheapass price at CC and fell in love with the series. I will definitley buy this game when it comes out. Any set release date?
 
I personally am really dissappointed that there isn't much of a graphical significance/increase in the DS versions. It may as well be another GBA classic. Oh well, but as has been stated earlier....it is still too early to tell what to make of the game. Hopefully, it will be another classic.

Welcome to CAG. I have no clue who you are. Forgive me for listening to a soundtrack and randomly typing out the bloops and bleeps, I forgot that scientists determined that randomly typing bleep, bloot, and anything of the sort was a sure sign of ADD, ADHD, or whatever the hell you think I have.

In honor of your newness here at CAG, i've bought you a gift. It's a dictionary. Please make use of it.
 
a shameless plug...

but the release date is 8/30/05
 
If you don;t think the graphics are great, a. you are dum, b you are stupid, c you have not seem anything but that first, fuzzy EGM scan and are dum and stupid for not seeing the videos and whatnot.

Use "Castlevaniac". Much cooler. Damn, this game is going to make me get a DS. It and Viewtiful Joe. Aria of Sorrow is an excellent game, so I have high hopes for this one.

Denis is right. This is actually one of the best looking games on the DS so far.

- there's a better video somewhere on the magicbox, but this should be enough to convince you. The game looks a lot better than SOTN. I don't know what more people can ask from Konami.
 
ya, so maybe it's not 3-d or anything but i'd have to go with dennis as well. This game looks GREAT, graphically speaking. I could almost compare it to fire emblem III for the playstation. those graphics were 2-d done right!!!
 
Can we call it by its true name- Dawn of Sorrow? This will be the game that makes me get a DS, but I'm still waiting to see if the price drops or if they release a new design (see Gameboy Pocket, GBA SP, Gameboy Micro).
 
Glad they kept it 2D, but having to trace random signs to beat a boss sounds like they were trying to think of anyway possible to make use of the touchscreen, wasting my damn time in the process.
 
I hope they take this same engine and flat out abuse it. I would love to see another game released prior to E3 and one for next winter.

I disagree... I think it is a very clever way to use the touchscreen without taking away from the theme of the game. Drawing "mystical runes" or whatever they end up being to "seal" the boss is damn cool, IMO.

New trailer, third one down. Awesome animated intro.[/QUOTE]

This is an awesome trailer. Hopefully they use a lot of those anime type cinematics. I also like the in game speech. I hope Konami and Nintendo start setting the par for these games and we don't get stuck with and more Ping Pals or Sprungs.
