Holy fuck! I was dead wrong! This is an instant purchase! But it’s unfortunate it’s digital only, I prefer a physical copy.

Wasn't expecting this at all, and it makes me wonder if Konami has a new mainline game in the works.

Disclaimer that I have NOTHING to do with Konami in the slightest and this topic has resulted in one of the freakiest coincidences I’ve ever had in my life!

I am so sold on that Haunted Castle remake.

Your Castlevania senses were tingling.

Oh wow, a Haunted Castle remake?!  I was buying this regardless but that is unexpectedly rad!

Was not expecting a Haunted Castle remake... I guess this makes it their first new classicvania since Rebirth?

I was doing some wiki-ing about the crystal traders in Simon's Quest, who are described as Vampire Hunters (probably) in the e-book that came with the Castlevania Anniversary Collection.  The English localization called them "friends" in the game.  That word got me thinking of Maxim.  That's making me wonder - what if Maxim and Lydie were childhood friends to Juste because their parents/grandparent were friends of Simon's and played a part in his quest?  Could the two crystal traders be their ancestors?  The roots of the Kischine and Erlanger families?  Maybe it's a offbeat theory, but it might explain how they're all tied in.  Otherwise, they just seem to come out of no where.  I don't suppose anyone has heard anything about this possibility or heard of this theory before?

I really am expecting a DS collection to come out when the Switch 2 comes out assuming Switch 2 does actually support dual screen and touch screen in some fashion (please, please, please).  As much as I like those games, I've kind of refused to replay them because after the Wii U and the Switch, the DS screens just seem so pitifully tiny to me, so I'm just waiting for a re-release.

As for a PS2 collection - I'd like to see Judgment also included, since it recycled a bunch of assets from Curse of Darkness.  Heck, why not include some Pachislot games while you're at it, they recycled assets too haha.

You including the LoI manga got me excited - I hadn't considered that and it would be the first time we might get to see it in the west.  That would rule! It would be a great excuse to republish it.

I figured it was a pretty solid way of interpreting the historical relationships between all these games that weren't exactly conceived to fit together.
