Not Medal Game.
This is "Pachi-Slot".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_slot_machine
Japanese slot machines, known as pachisuro(Pachi-Slot).
-
http://www.kpenet.jp/dracula.html
I understand nothing.
What is it? I don't have time to read through the text, but the trailer had CoD characters in it. Is it a game? Is it a movie?
Yeah well, I'll be back when I have more time.
-
Perhaps, this is a Pachi-Slot that makes Akumajyo Densetsu a motif.
-
well, whatever a Pachi-Slot is, those cut-scenes brought tears to my eyes.
-
This thing is way too bad ass to be just some slot game!
Make a real remake of CV3!
Also s that girl supposed to be Sypha?
-
they should have put these cut-scenes in Trevor mode of Curse of Darkness, sigh. I'm gonna play Trevor mode and pretend that the cut scenes are there.
-
Here you can download the trailer:http://rapidshare.com/files/152759096/Slot_Castlevania_Trailer.avi
-
Dracula looks like Genghis Khan again.
-
My god, that trailer is beautiful! Why the hell do they waste it on something like this. For all, they could've just made a cutesy SD CV anime video slot machine. That trailer makes me want MORE.
I actually want a game for this! A REAL game!!! ;D
-
Why the hell do they waste it on something like this.
Capcom did it for Resident Evil.
-
Epic, now if only those scenes would of been in Curse of Darkness.
-
Here's a link to a video from a different Pachi game made by KPE to give you a feel for what a Castlevania Pachi game might be like.
-

Now with Youtube link if anyone wants to see the trailer with less load times.
-
Awesome! That's how COD should have been! All about Trevor!
-
thanks.
when i paused the video, i have to say that Sypha in this game sure does look pretty.
-
Oh god....why u dissapoint me like this Iga
First the Art of the Judgement and now this? Cortate el Afro carajo!!!! (yep, is in spanish, sorry).
-
here's an article about the Beatmania slot machine.
-
Trevor owning it up in that trailer. As only his badass self can do.
-
That was Sypha? she look so.... young.... and not much of a person who'd go out and fight, more like one of them ladies with fans and laughs behind 'em.
-
Well, she was weak but able to pull off strong spells. The colors in her outfit (blue/white) are reminiscent of Sypha's game colors. Her hair isn't quite as long as it was in game, but could pass as her. Her outfit is definitely more like a "costume" than what a normal villager would wear. I noticed that she has some cloth on her forearms that covers a triangular part of her backhand, with the point at the base of her middle finger. Looks like a design that would be fit for a sorceress to support the flow of magic released from her palms. And of course, the cross around her neck is a symbol of a church warrior in Castlevania.
She does seem like she's planning on letting Trevor storm the castle by himself. Perhaps she would stay behind and protect the village or something?
-
yea i hope this is a cv3 remake rather than a cod sequel....itd be dumb if this was just a slot-machine game. i agree that does look like sypha but she looks kinda young
-
darn, we'll probably get to see most of the videos from this game at some point, but they'll probably be cell phone quality (or at least digital camera quality). nothing quite as cool as what we're seeing in this promo.
-
It seems criminal to just use this for a slot machine.
Never seen that first image of Trevor before. Screen grabbed it and using it as a wallpaper now.

-
sweet *uses picture for desktop background*
-
Awesome image! I'll use it for desktop background.
-
I just uploaded 52 snapshots from the promotional video to the Castlevania Wiki:
http://castlevania.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Pacchislot_Trailer_Snapshots
-
If they just made a quickie incorporating these scenes with the CoD engine for PS2, would you buy it?
Are you kidding? The min it came out I'd buy it. New Trevor? Yes, thank you.

Thank you for sharing that, that's going up on the laptop :)
-
They have a new short video up with some new scenes and gameplay.
http://www.kpenet.jp/dracula.html
They show LoI version Medusa and Succubus. They also have some of Sypha's magic moves (a la Sailor Moon??) and a closeup of her chest. Plus, you get to see what the machine looks like in action.
-
That Sypha could never disguise herself as a man. D:
-
I know, I am starting to have some doubts whether that really is Sypha now.
-
Wow, those are massive breasts!! :o Looks like they aren't skimping with the eye candy.
Other than that, love the CG. Trevor's freakin badass in those vids!
-
Here's snapshots from the second promo.
http://castlevania.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Pacchislot_Trailer2_Snapshot
-
Here is the second trailer:http://rapidshare.com/files/157661723/Arcade_Trailer_2.avi
-
doh, i should've waited for your post before taking snapshots. it was quite hard since you can't rewind at the official site.
-
Oh, man! Why couldn't the cut scenes be for a console game instead!?
-
Here is the second trailer:http://rapidshare.com/files/157661723/Arcade_Trailer_2.avi

Here's snapshots from the second promo.
http://castlevania.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Pacchislot_Trailer2_Snapshot
Whoa. I don't think there could be any doubt that Sypha is a girl in this one. ;D
-
http://www.hsjp.net/upload/src/up50435.jpg
Her name is "Angela"
Not Sypha.
-
really?! thanks for clearing that up! where did you find that picture? looks like the official site's layout has been updated, but most of the links aren't working yet. does this game have a title other than "Dracula"?
-
I bought the magazine of the Pachi-Slot, and took the photograph.
Pachi-Slot "Akumajyo Dracula" is Nothing Sub-title.
Angela might be a dancer.
But, the profile is still an unknown.
-
In Reply To #41
A dancer? I'd have never guessed! I mean, her name was Dancing Angela, right? Here I thought she was a simple blacksmith...
Seriously, great trailers for a ridiculous concept.
-
I certainly hope she has some kind of connection with the Belnades/Fernandez clan.
-
hey, the official page has been updated with some rules. i'm not sure if anyone cares, but it is a little interesting to see what symbols they decide to use in the slot reel:
- red 7's (featuring Trevor's face)
- blue 7's (featuring Dracula's Castle)
- yellow stop-watches
- watermelons with knives stuck in them
- red/blue/black cherries
- blue holy water
- black devil forgemaster crest
http://www.kpenet.jp/dracula.html
-
They added a new video to the pachi slot web site and holly crap does it show a ton of stuff.
http://www.kpenet.jp/dracula.html
I can't even believe this is a slot machine. I went to Vegas a couple years ago and there was nothing there that came anywhere close to this in slot machine technology.
-
http://www.hsjp.net/upload/src/up50435.jpg
could someone reupload this to some server that doesn't delete stuff after few days like imageshack or so?
-
i wish i had saved that image. i figured a better version of it would get uploaded to the official site, but so far, they haven't released any official art. isaac with a spiked ball and chain, pretty cool.
-
what the?
this is just a slot machine?
i thought it to be Curse of Darkness 2 trevor's chronicles? i saw isaac at the trailer and trevor himself in 3d then it's just a slot machine? the hell with it... it's looks REALLY cool though ;D
-
even though we can't actually fight the bosses like in Curse of Darkness, there's something cool about fully rendered cinematic fight scenes.
-
I wonder if the forces of Darkness somehow manage to get ahold of Hector and use him to revive the count?
-
I don't think you should care that much for the story or the extent of Angela fanservice since it's a slot machine.
-
oh but it is fun to care about such things.
-
Here's my latest theory about who Angela is and what her role is:
After Sypha married Trevor, she left her role as a hunter of the church to raise her children. The church would soon grow to miss her though and sought out one of her kin to take her place. Angela was recruited and assigned to accompany Trevor on his latest mission to thwart the newly revived Count Dracula. Angela would become the ancestor of all the subsequent Belnades clan members who worked as witches under the employment of the Church, up to and including Yoko Belnades.
Ok, still don't know how Yoko managed to keep the last name of Belnades if that's the case though, but, whatever.
-
Here is the picture:

-
Perhaps, no story.
Perhaps, unrelated to the time line.
Because this is a mere gambling machine.
However, it is interesting to imagine it.
-
OK!! Here is the third trailer for that game:
http://rapidshare.com/files/168556355/Pachi_Slot_Dracula_X_Trailer_3.avi
Very awesome trailer!!
-
In Reply To #56
Very cool, thank you
-
2 questions:
A) How do I buy this machine?
B) How do I sneak it into the country past customs? ;D
-
Is there any idea of when this game might be available in Japan?
-
Ok I did a lot of research on this, don't hold your breath unless you're loaded.
Approx. $2800 USD new.
And it has already been released, earlier this month.
I'm still going to work on getting one for myself but by the time its available to import I should have enough to get it.
Also note that several states in the USA even POSSESSION of this kind of machine is a FELONY, regardless of whether you use it for gambling, I think California is one and there are only about 20 states that it is legal in, I luckly live in one (and of those you usually have to be at least 25 Years Old). So note that before trying to buy one if you are thinking about it.

we need someone to find this game, blow half their salary on it, and then let us know what the premise of the storyline is.
-
hey, someone found the full audio track for the song they used in one of the trailers:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovq6TKQjGUU
-
That song is pretty cool when you get to hear the whole thing. I wonder where the person on youtube found it, and where I can get a copy? heh
-
http://www.kpenet.jp/dracula.html
They've updated the site and all the links are active now. It mostly just shows how the game is played. I was really hoping for an art page and a music page, but no luck.
-
So wait, this is NOT that Akumajo Dracula The Medal game?
This is yet another one?
What's the difference between The Medal game and this one?
And what exactly is Pachinko?
-

http://www.konami.jp/am/feature/adtm_how_to_play.html
"Akumajo Dracula The Medal" is a arcade slot game.
You cannot cash the earned medal.
-
I didn't realize that there was a type of slot machine called a "medal" slot machine that doesn't involve playing for real money. Thanks. Here's a wikipedia article on Medal games:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medal_game
-
Homepage update.
The wallpaper can be downloaded from "special" in the left end.
-
In Reply To #68
cool, thanks for the update.
There's also a new video with the two guys playing it. There's not a lot of new footage but there are a couple of things. We get to see Death's death scene, it's pretty cool. There's also some sort of surprise that they wouldn't show at the end. They would only show the two guys reaction of it.
-
Is it my imagination, or is the same guy doing to promo for the Chun Li Street Fighter movie that was doing the promo for the Pachislot Castlevania? Is he a Japanese equivalent of that guy who always announces movies in the US by starting with "In a world where..."?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1cuEy82PeQ
Oh, and, yay! Street Fighter movie promo! Can't wait for the new Chun Li vs Vega scene.
-
They've updated the page with a couple things.
-
Nice update!!
Here you can download the song: http://rapidshare.com/files/182898704/trezire_de_spirit.mp3
-
Man, the the castle in the Dracula wallpaper is embarrassing.
-
That third trailer blew my mind. I'd never imagine that insane amount of depth and thought into a gambling machine. I doubt it'd be even in tune for an american release, BUT if it was and Churchill got slots...I'm gonna look like the biggest hypocrite at my job. Period.
It'sa almost in vein to that awesome Mario Bros. pinball machine with the neat level segments and such.
-
OK, here is another update!!
First another song sample: http://rapidshare.com/files/186067940/sexy.mp3
And here is a new video, that shows a lot of game play. The video is very big(19 minutes), so i have to split it in two. You need hjsplit to merge the two parts.

Id like to watch that vid but not from rapidshare =/
-
In Reply To #76
Do you want me to uploaded somewhere else?
-
you can upload it to megaupload. its filesize limit is 1 gb, so you won't even need to split files.
-
I couldn't download them separately cause the extension was all messed. I just decided to watch the video at the site. My god, LMFAO when the guys started to crack up at Angela's jiggling breasts.
-
Here is the megaupload link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=D0YPMINM

Awesome, thank you.
-
the site's been updated (well, since the last time i was there) to include 8 music tracks and those 4 panel mangas featuring Trevor, Isaac, and good ole Angela.
-
Hey, they have a screensaver you can download to your computer now.
-
In Reply To #83
I downloaded it, but it doesn't seem to want to open. Any suggestions?
-
uhhh links somebody? Cant exactly navigate the site ::)
-
Why, oh why do they waste awesome trailers, clips and graphics to a DAMN SLOT GAME?!
Faith..in..CV..fading.
Need..a good..new..game.
-
uhhh links somebody? Cant exactly navigate the site ::)
Unfortunately, I don't think you can make links to the individual pages on the site. It's all Adobe Flash driven.
Basically, the screen saver, wallpaper, music, and comic strips are all accessible at the lower left most menu option once the site has loaded. The screen saver is below the arrow on the window that pops up, and the others are tabs on the left.
-
ty heres a direct link to what I assume is the screensaver

I saw on Mr. P's Castlevania Realm that they're putting the pachislot game on cell phones.

No, this is the trailer for the arcade castlevania.

Something like a java game? Will we have the chance to have this game someday? *puppy eyes*
-
i'm assuming they'd think that people outside of Japan wouldn't know what a pachislot game is and would have no interest in the game. i'm holding out a small amount of hope that they might package it as a bonus to some other game or collection though. maybe if they ever do a "Dracula's Curse Chronicles" or something like that?
-
And here is the official soundtrack
http://www.konamistyle.jp/ecitem/item57548.html
-
If I can't get the game itself, I gotta at least get a hold of that soundtrack. I'm to intimated to try to buy from a Japanese web site though. Maybe I'll find it on ebay?
-
Someone posted the Pachislot sound track songs on You Tube. Its mostly a mix of CoD songs and new songs.

I really like trezier de spirits (or whatever it's called), sounds like a main theme or summin. The opera/metal combo is usually very hard on the ears for me, and it's still borderline epic/cheesy, but it also sounds a lot like Michiru Yamane. Should've been the final boss track in a proper CV.. :D

Link doesn't work anymore. ???
Could you provide a new link please?
It's quite hard for me to navigate on Japanese website.

Thank you! :D

It pisses me off that they had Trevor get killed by Dracula and had him have to be resurrected. There was never any indication of that ever happening. And story wise, what is this? A shitty retelling of Castlevania 3 or something else entirely?
-
Apperently nobody really knows.
-
IGA has a hard on for Castlevania 3, so it's probably just him having fun with the characters in a non canon setting.
-
It kind of reminds me of a more complicated version of the old Dragon's Lair arcade game.
Thanks for the video.
