Konami isn't even trying anymore.

Seriously, look at this shit:



I'm like... What the hell. I'm surprised that they didn't call Julia "Succubus" or something.

EDIT: This image came from this Facebook page. Some people are pointing out that this page is not official. While I know there are other more "official looking" pages, this one was the first to post about the new Castlevania pachinko. They also refer to these reveals as "we are bringing" and "we are doing" or "our next game". They also had insider info about the date for the pachinkos to come out.

So, while this appears to not be Konami, it looks to be some gambling-focused branch representative, and therefore, official.

The mastermind behind the "Umbra of Sorrow" project. But not the only one.

All in favor of a takeover and reorganisation of Konami, hands please.

Pretty sure that would be unanimous.
It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

Ah, this reminds me of the good olde days when Konami would sometimes just fuck up with the plot in their NES and Gameboy manuals...

...I wasn't alive during the 80s, and this time they don't have the protection of making actual good games to let that slide.  DOWN WITH KONAMI!

Oh this is sad, I mean why... you'd think with all this new hardware we would have a really great new CV game.

But no all we have is just Konami's pachinko machines, ohh it makes me sad.

As that new one  erotic violence had some really nice designs, like the whip, the look of the backgrounds, and even some of the characters.
It was just a shame that the other parts let it down, And that name ohhh why not something
 
"Akumajō Dracula tears of the moon"  or something like that but no.


and sexing up so much, that has to go right now, out, out as that is not why We, well I play CV.
No Konami needs a revamp Now.

Now this is just embarrassing... Whats worse is I prefer Hector's look for Simon to Kojima's Chronicles redesign XD and Dracula being labeled Hector made me chuckle. Like how can anyone be that fucking stupid?

Nah, it's obviously a Contra Shattered Soldier pachislot being announced, with the characters being Bill Razor, Lucia, and Lanse Ben   :P  :D  :P :D

Seriously don't joke about this, it will be the point where the die-hard fans band together, make a real VK and slay the demon that is currently Konami..
