T-shirts, hiker boots, and a gram cracker cereal?

A Castlevania dating sim? Dude, go bang your head against the wall....hard.

dating sims sell prety poorly already. a fighting game at least works with cv cause both are action oriented, but a slightly interactive book not really. plus it'd have to be pc, the console ones sell even worse and are required to be worksafe, which reduces sales further.

That's completely retarded, and they expect to make money that way?

Sorry, but i think that this wont work.

Yeah I'm not really feelin' that either, personally I prefer the real thing, cuz it usually results in sex, the greatest thing on the planet.

You all know it will happen eventually, that is, assuming Judgment doesn't kill the franchise first.

[megabelmont]

Haha, with the direction the series is going I could see IGA making this for the DS...

99% text, 0.1% choices, 0.9% actual scenes.

you really want that?

[warfreak]

Ugh.. Please no. Konami shouldn't make that!

It would be a cool idea for a fangame though. Just random novelty that won't take a lot of effort (i think. :| )

[Gimph]

Really stupid idea, but I'd play it!

it would require some effort. first of all, you'd need to be a good writer or have one. those games are all about interesting story and good writing. nobody'll want to sit through a boring story that puts them to sleep or makes them laugh with its lame writing style and will either speed through it to the scenes or more likely give up.

then you'd need an artist that'd draw the character portraits and cgs, as well as a musician to compose music and a programmer to code the game (or use free programs for such games).

so yeah, it's not that easy either.

there should be an easy Dating Sim Maker. 

or at least a Battle Maker using this battle system:
