@Laxeybobby Your first comment pretty much speaks for me also. I have since the N64 exclusively played Nintendo consoles. The first party software is often great but I do feel that the updates of some of Nintendo's franchises do also feel rather samey over the years. Third party support has helped to ameliorate this in the past, but it really does look like this generation third party games will be ever thinner on the ground.
Really sorry to hear about this. My thoughts go out to those affected. I have all the Two Tribes classics games as well as Toki Tori 2+. Have really enjoyed what I have seen of them so far. I had really hoped the recent pricing strategy adopted for them would have driven sales, but must be tough to turn a profit on too low a price point. @Reuf Good luck with future projects.
Sigh. My childhood memories also trampled by the low score. Played this to death on my Acorn Electron back in 1985ish. It was one of the few arcade ports available. Even then, I had, it seemed been passed off with the BBC Micro tape by mistake which ran criminally slowly on the Electron. Many hours spent dodging the marshmallow sized bullets though...

Re: Review: Castlevania (3DS eShop / NES)
...its all a matter of personal taste, my heart rests with the Metroidvania titles. Especially Aria or Dawn of Sorrow...
