you're awesome for finding this.  my routine google news check every day didn't turn this up.

Those graphics look intense, even from a camera phone! I can't wait to play this. I wonder which Belmont that is on the title screen?

And that dude's right, we should be getting this for Wii instead of Castlevania: Death Note Edition 

[Reinhart77]

took me a while to notice, but it looks like stage 1 is a ghost ship.

I had seen a video about this game before.

The platform is Wii to my knowledge, and the gameplay style is almost exactly like that of the Soul Caliber series

Completely wrong game, bro. Your talking about judgment, which is more akin to Powerstone than Soul Caliber

lol @ n00b

Anyway, great find. This game looks really cool. I hope it comes to Wii someday, they'd be fools not to port it. The graphics do however look a bit too advanced perhaps... they could always downgrade them a little though.

Even though I can't clearly see which Belmont that is, when I look at it the only one I can think of is Simon.

[Reinhart77]

he looks like a badass version of Richter to me.  but probably not. 

i wonder what Iga's role in this game is, if any at all.

This game is looking awesome!! IGA thinks that it is tired to use the wiimote as a whip, that's why he made the arcade game, because it will be a very short game. But then, what about Judgment? You want get tired swinging the wiimote for hitting your oponent or making combos or you are going just to play every day from 10-30 minutes of the game so that you want get tired? I believe that IGA has no excuse for this one!!

Also, even if the pictures are blured, the graphics are looking awesome and i believe that this is how a true 3D future Castlevania game should look!!

shits off the chain whip seriously looks interesting id def drop  a stack of quaters on this one or even cop it if it came to the wii

[OldSchoolArikado]

OMG!!! a real castlevania arcade game!!!! thanks godness!!!!

[Thunderbrand]

The castle in the background looks great. Very interesting and modern, yet "traditional" castle design.

If anything, if or when they do a Wii version, they can always add a few more stages to increase the length, as well as additional modes.

I'm REALLY liking the look of it. It's soooo dark and the atmosphere is creepy. And the castle, it looks like Dracula's Castle(not like the strange castle in CoD, which looked NOTHING like Dracula's Castle).

So, it seems the male character(Player 1) is a Belmont, while the female character(Player 2) is a gun-toting vampire hunter. Hmmmm...
