The 3DS wasn't very popular when it first debuted, either

re: huge price drop

And?

Sony handhelds have never sold well. Castlevania at the very least stands a chance of sales on Nintendo platforms. The sequel to LoS is coming to Vita, anyway.

You said the Vita isn't a popular system, neither is the 3DS according to Nintendo

The 3DS outsold any other Nintendo handheld in its first year.

Which is great. I don't have a vita but my brother does and the system is so beautiful, that screen deserves a castlevania on it.

That's not true at all.

Vita hasn't even hit it's 2 million sales mark yet, the 3DS is quickly approaching about 20 mil. now. Maybe more.

The point is when it started off it had horrible sales, it took a big price cut and mario to finally come out for it to start succeeding.

Vita is waiting for good system seller games and it's price drop to start picking up steam.

A lot of games were canned too because of the 3DS's rough start. I don't regret my purchase anymore though.

This is starting to turn into console wars.

well the Vita was released not too long ago, so give it time to catch up

edit: i'm just saying that 3DS had a rough start, too. they're both incredible pieces of technology

Alright, I understand this.

I'm not quite sure what in means in reference to my original statement that the Vita isn't a popular system right now, and thus why people keep forgetting about it.

If you want to expand on that, the other reason the 3DS is probably getting mentioned more than the Vita is that this is a Castlevania forum and save for Dracula X Chronicles, Castlevania has been living on the DS.

And?

It means that statement was false?

No sense in arguing about consoles, if this rumor is true we ALL get new castlevania games.

it's a joyous time for all........Rumors of alucard and trevor belmont are icing on the damn cake....

Again, I never said it didn't.

Don't really understand why this conversation went in this direction.

EDIT: Looks like I've ruffled some feathers. My respect has dropped like 5 points since entering this thread.

If Castlevania is really coming to WiiU, wow. Man, I wonder what new approach they'll take with it. They have to be doing something with that screen in the middle of the controller.

Man it's actually been YEARS since a proper Castlevania game came out on a major Nintendo platform.
