Topic: Which VC Castlevania is the best?

thats what i was thinking too, i used to rent it so id get it

It's supposed to be though. It's very intentionally a throwback to the 16-bit era Castlevania titles. It wasn't created to do anything original or ground breaking. It was created purely for old school Castlevania fans who don't like the newer "Metroidvania" games.

Plus it was a reimagining of an old Castlevania game.

I've just got through playing (not on VC) several levels of Castlevania III and I gotta say it's pretty solid. Not as good as Rondo or IV, but still pretty good. Definitely the best out of the NES trilogy so far.

Super Castlevania IV was my first non-metroidvania game in the series.

I just hate typing in passwords.

@Waveboy: Agreed, Stage 3's music definitely is full of awesomeness. My favorite track would definitely have to be Stage 1's. Love the Bloodlines Stage 1 remix. <3

My favorite tune from Rebirth, though they're all great.

Anyone know where it's from, originally? I'm assuming it's a remix of an older tune, but I don't remember it.

Oh wow, I didn't even know there was a Castlevania arcade game! Kudos to them for resurrecting this song from it, it's an excellent little tune. (Better than a ranking screen deserves, really!)

Castlevainia 3 wins because the name Alucard is the coolest name in existence.

Ok if thats a reason than SotN would win because Alucard is the main character instead of just a sidekick like in Castlevania 3.

I prefer Super Castlevania IV to be honest. Castlevania III is second then Rondo of Blood.

If save states existed like on 3DS VC, then Rondo of Blood would be first. I like it the most but I'm really no good at it.

I never played the NES Castlevania games growing up, so maybe that's why I can't get into them now. I would say Super Castlevania IV is my favorite Castlevania game on the VC, followed by Rondo of Blood.

Rondo of Blood is the best, and 2nd place Castlevania III.

I still prefer the original Castlevania. I dont think you can go wrong with any of them on the VC.

Castlevania III is the best VC right now... but i didn't really play the home console Castlevania series when i was a kid,,, what i did have was my black and white Gameboy versions that my cousin gave me... Those Gameboy games sucked, so i didn't buy the home console versions back in the day LOL

lament of innocence all ds games castlevania 2 super castlevania wich is a remake of 1st game curse of darkness

wait for Dracula X (SNES)

No offense, but that's horrible advice. It's such a glitchy, poorly designed game, and pulls a lot of crap near the end.

No offense, but I disagree with Order-Sol who I believe is Mac. I have the cart and I like Dracula X. The music and graphics are awesome opposum and it's Classic Castlevania on the SNES that is why you would want to play it Waveula! But like Wave said, I doubt this game will see the light of day on the VC as Rondo of Blood is available and Konami hasn't released anything on the VC anyway.

castlevania 3 dracula's curse and rondo of blood are my favorites. i would like to see dracula x on vc because i have never played it on super nes but i have on the psp. i can't seem to track a dracula x super nes online that doesn't cost a arm and a leg.
