Topic: DID YOU KNOW (about Castlevania)...

[PVG]

...that they made a manga out of CoD in Japan? (reference would be:
http://castlevania.wikia.com/wiki/Curse_of_Darkness_Manga)




Aka a forum game, where everybody replies with a tidbit of CV-info about the series or/and our CV-community, what they think might be known in lesser extent by the readers.

And everybody can comment & naturally answer, if they knew already!

Acclaims can be tagged with a reference/where you heard it, and the wildest ones must be tagged to avoid plainly making sh3it up,please.

(Aka a forum game, where everybody replies with a tidbit of CV-info, what they think might be known in lesser extent by the readers. )

And everybody can answer if they knew already, but ofcourse!

The wildest acclaims must be tagged with a reference, so no making up shit PLZ!

 

Yes, I know that.

BTW did you know that Alucard's voice actor in DXC is going to be the voice of Cecil in Final Fantasy IV DS?

Also Isaac's voice actor from CoD is going to be the voice of Kain?

Cecil.  Kain.  Get it? 

[PVG]

I totally didn't know that! 

But did you know, that the original first batch print of SotN (with the art book/pamphlet)goes out for ~120-150 USD:s inside European markets? 

Also, did you know that Jorge D. Fuentes posts @ the ICVD-forums too, often promoting his caek-ba3king skillz? 

[CVfan13]

And also, did yu know that an english version of said manga will be released in America this fall! 
I think this is all old news....

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

Did you guyz know that a person named KY-RA did a graphics hack of Castlevania Legends that made Sonia and a lot of enemies much better-looking?  They gave her a sword and armor and the enemies look less squiggly.

It's true, but I don't have screenshots off of my emu to prove it.

Did you know that dawn of sorrow and portrait of ruined kastlevania were designed with 12 year old animu/mango fanboy kids in mind?

Yeah, I did. You keep posting in in... like every. single. thread.

Did you know, that you can get different sets of musics in CV Chronicles/PSX in addition to the revamped & 1st given original sountracks?

--->

Sound Module Select:

Hold L1 and R1 while selecting Original Mode, and you'll unlock an option to change the music played in the game. This works in Arrange mode, as well.

Edit: Also, did you know how one of the CVDungeon members, called ThinkThank, fooled almost the entire CV-community and even a few news-sites about the much anticipated Portrait of Ruin, by making very believable photoshopped "news" about the game?

Here's some fun facts

Did you know that if you plug in AoS & DoS at the same time, a little Mina doll appears in Yoko's room?

Also, if you constantly attack the chicken, a whole flock will come in from nowhere & attack yo--wait, wrong series.

Uhh if you super down kick the bookshelf in the first portrait, things go flying all over the place

ok. i never did that in the first place, but since you're begging me on your knees, i'll consider doing that.

you also missed the purpose of this thread, so post your own "did you know" about the cv series or gtfo.

There's a bust of Dracula in the upper right-hand corner of Hammer's shop in DoS.

In Cordova Town, in one of the open areas with the executioners it's possible to see the abandoned castle in the distance.

[crisis]

That's not Dracula, it's one of those Konami head things.

I did not know this.

Also, Azmodan, I'm surprised I did not know that about Cordova, considering I love it so much, expecially those open areas you mentioned. Did you know that if you look down below the cliffs in those areas you can see the first part of the stage you went through, only in micro-arial view mode?

Not exactly about Castlevania, but...

Did you know, that in the game Zombies Ate My Neighbors, there is an enemy named "Vlad Belmont the Vampire"?

[The Last Belmont]

did you know that the original akumajou dracula has an additional track not in the nes version on the save screen and when you beat the MSX version there is also an extra music track at the end. (which is pretty tight I might add)

Did you know Death is Gold in the MSX game and starts out in the center of the room. (making the fight alot tougher)
