DoctaMario (a member of this forum) is the Tile/Sprite artist for it.
I think you're confusing Dr. Mario with Doctamario. They're two different people. :P

Btw. it's possible to get nes roms on real cartridges. There are people who take some money ($5 or so plus shipping costs) and an existing cartridge to erase its content and replace it with the rom data.

Yeah I saw on EBay once someone was selling the english Seiken Densetsu 3 Rom on a cartridge, would have gotten it but it was pretty expensive. Also, one of the dudes at a local game shop around me is working on that now.
What a horrible night to have a curse!

wow that looks incredibly fake. If it were a true old nes castlevania game it would would have the old font. If this guy were trying to pass it off as a classic nes game you think he would have at least got the font right. :P

edit

Just read the rest of the posts. I love looking for and playing altered/souped up versions of the original cv if it weren't so expensive I'd pick this up as it appears the coder did a really good job.

Still, how do you get a homebrew into a NES cartridge??

It's actually incredibly easy. All's you have to do is erase the game that's on one and code the new one you want to replace it with on there.

Follow the link I gave then, there's an ip patch for the original cv which turns it into that game. Of course it'll be a rom and you'll need an emulator, but you won't have to pay this much money to some ripoff thief like that. :P

Both cv corner and the hack's site work. It might be something on your end.

A homebrew would be using a homemade engine and etc I guess.
Hacks use the actual games and build off of there or something like that. Yeah.

Difference is, if you wrote it from grounds up it's homebrew. If you used an already existing game and hacked it to put your stuff in it's a hack. :P

It's not the case if the game allows modifications natively, but licenced games almost never have that ability.

Edit: crap, too late.

Well duh! I know that. I'm just confused about how to plug a big cartridge like that into a computer.

You don't, they have to program the chips (least to my knowledge) the same way they were originally programmed. Which requires you to take the board out of the plastic case, and tediously write the new code for it.
