Topic: Yet another rumor: IGArashi making 3D game for 3DS

[Maedhros]

3D artists being on the game doesn't mean the gameplay will be on 3D perspective. Even Ecclesia had 3D (backgrounds), right??

Here hoping for a good 2/2.5D game. =)

Haters rejoice!!

I hope it's 2D gameplay with 3D elements as opposed to full-3D. Por ejemplo, scythes popping out in front of me while fighting Death but on a 2D playing field.

I completely agree.

I'm not saying that i don't want to see IGA finally succeed in a 3d vania but i just don't want it for the 3DS.
Instead i'd like to see a Castlevania game with 3D graphics while retaining the 2D gameplay.

Order of Ecclesia barely had any 3D compared to the efforts put in the other two games. Maybe there's...two areas that actually have some 3D object in the background? The 3D ship and the tower near Dracula's throne.

Yeah, whatever, you understood what I mean (the other two have some 3D effects in play too).

True, they had it moreso, but I don't think that they'd be hiring new talent to do 3D assets such as those unless the game had a larger focus on 3D. I'd say 2.5D, to really stand up amongst a lot of the other games.

No matter how much people hate on Iga, the man is important to the frachise and has acomplished a lot in his life. Possibly more that the mayority of us.

Castlevania: 3rD Sorrow

Y'know, that is actually a rather good name if IGA necessarily feels the need to make a third one with a gimmicky 3DS title. It could be the 1999 game, except it would take place before the other two sorrow games, which technically makes it the 1st Sorrow. But.. blah.

Or maybe they could put Soma in a third game and get it over with. Not that I really want another game with him.

I'm glad to hear some news from IGA's team. Hopefully it won't take long for them to reveal something solid. When is Konami party in January?

[Foffy]

I quite honestly don't really mind however it goes, I'd just like to hopefully see something further on this soon. Maybe next month, at Nintendo's 3DS event? The timing is pretty interesting too, as this specific rumor boomed out right around the same time there were talks of a Nintendo event occurring January 18th..if they intend to show games intended for the yearly release for the 3DS, it could be such a game showcased.

After the strange place Harmony of Despair information appeared from, I wouldn't be shocked at all if this rumor really has some strong credibility to it. Which makes me even more excited.

[Nagumo]

I doubt we will hear something until the yearly leak out.  

[Sumac]

Expected.
Well 3D...Maybe it will be something new and solid for a change.

[angevil]

I hope it is 2D gameplay with some cool 3D elements! Go, IGA! I can′t wait for this, it feels such a long wait since Ecclesia.

[Alutwon]

O noooooooo. I was gonna save up for a new computer looks like I have to get a 3DS now, dam...

[Reinhart77]

i finally got around to getting to Dracula in Order of Ecclesia, so yeah, guess i'm ready for the next Castleroid.

[Valtiel]

I think this is quite good news even for IGA haters.

IGA delivers solid, even when unimaginative, titles. It's more-of-the-same but it's something we love, so what's to hate?
Well, the recycling I guess.

If this is a 3D game (as in, polygonal title), he can't / can't be forced to recycle anything. So we will get all the *good* about IGA games without the *bad* IGA games usually carry. Win-win situation.
