The upcoming Wii ware Castlevania Rebirth has me pretty excited but seriously. Where the hell Is Rondo? I'm gonna be an old man by the time it's out.

Who knows with Nintendo in charge of things. It may never come out, especially at the dirt slow pace games are released outside of Japan.

Future Wii purchases:
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Metroid: Other M
Zelda Wii
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Sin and Punishment 2

I think it's Konami's fault. Not Nintendo.

Sadly, possibly never.

I thought by us seeing Detana Twinbee (a Konami TG16 import) come out, and Hudson seeing the poll on this site that showed an unbelievable amount of demand for Rondo, that we would see it around Halloween this year. Guess I was wrong

it's an unlockable game and a remade-3D game on PSP and it retails for 10 bucks now.

It's a good game, but it's one of those games that, once played, you wonder why such an absurd amount of hype was created. It's a good game...it just removed a lot of the cool new things CV4 introduced, didn't really do a lot with the non-linearity aspect, and kept a lot of the things that series naysayers don't like about the jump/collision physics....I dunno it's a good game but I think CV3 was superior and it's definitely not worth the laughably high prices on ebay and the like. It's a good, solid CV title, but now that it's already come out here and Sony played its card first, I doubt we'll see it anytime soon.

Especially since DXC didn't sell all that well for PSP despite being one of the best-value packages for the platform, even at original retail.

We don't know that just yet...

I read somewhere that a certified leaker of Castlevania games said Konami sent it in for approval to Nintendo, only to have it rejected, around the same time Dracula X Chronicles was being released. The same person leaked tons of info for Protrait of Ruin months before its release. I really hope it isn't true, but it looks like the person isn't kidding considering all the accurate stuff he/she leaked of Portrait.

Rondo is the type of game that deserves to be played on a TV screen, not a blurry portable screen with sound and cutscene problems.

I feel like a broken record on these Castlevania threads, but to reiterate my personal ranking one more time: the 3 greatest Castlevania games, in no particular order, are III, Rondo of Blood, and SoTN. Nothing else even comes close.

Now then, give me my Rondo. I will never own a PSP, and I don't want a remake. Just the original, please. I don't even know if I still have the emulator I used to play it through the first time, and I want it on my Wii menu where it belongs.

I don't have a PSP, period. I used to have one with Dracula X, but even if I did output it to a TV it still wouldn't fix the sound and cutscene issues. The endings were a mess because of it.

I wonder if "the game everybody wants" is actually "Donkey Kart Smash Bound Island of Blood"?

Actually, I like Bowser AND hairy bellies!

I lost hope on this getting a western VC release ages ago, sadly. Now that I have a PSP, I may pick up the remake but still, sucks a lot for those who don't have one.

Tell me about it. What about releasing all Castlevanias even the one on TG16 and Genesis. C'mon Nintendo and Konami!!

You guys should just save up money and buy a PSP 3000. Do NOT buy a PSP Go. There are some great PSP games out there, and I might buy DXC later on.

Bloodlines? That game was awesome.

The best strategy in the game: go up stairs and pause balls.

Truly, why bother creating some generic remake when you have one of the greatest original games just sitting there, complete, and ready to be offered up for download with no development costs. Or Bloodlines. I'd take either of those classic games over some WiiWare remake of the GB title any day.

Konami is a great company, and Akumajou Dracula X Chi no Rondo is a great game. I'm sure they'll release it after they give us Bloodlines and Vampire's Kiss? I could wait all year, if possible.

To each their own
