They’re putting Legends on Nintendo Switch Online. I think this is the first Castlevania title up there. Hopefully this will open the gates for more in the future like Castlevania 64 if we don’t get more collections. Wonder if it will get a special version.

I'll probably get upset if they start releasing the same old games they've rereleased a dozen times on the service before doing more ones they haven't done before though. Unless they have some really compelling special versions.

Unlike others I have no beef with Sonia Belmont. However, since I own the physical cartridge I have no reason to purchase this on the Switch. What they really need to do is release Castlevania Adventure Rebirth, since it’s locked on the Wii and I haven’t played that game in years

I personally don't own a Switch, but I still have a boxed copy kicking around.

I do like the larger screen and not having to dig out my old handheld, plus being able to use save states instead of passwords is nice.

Legends was not the strongest of CastleVania showings IMHO; were The Adventure and Revenge previously (re)released this way?

Not on NSO but they're on the anniversary collection. I hope we get another collection and Legends is added to that, because I'd hate for it to be stuck on a subscription service, but in the meantime it's cool to see it finally re-released.
