Title: Japanese Castlevania Commercials
Post by: Ratty on March 20, 2015, 06:30:02 PM
So I just stumbled on these, only uploaded last month. I've never seen them before so figured many here probably hadn't either.

The one for the original FDS release is particularly cute.

The first one is pretty charming. But nothing beats the SCIV commercial.

Pretty much. And it wasn't even Japanese either, lol.

Jesus, why wasn't she in the game instead of Leon? We would have our female Belmont lead then!

I love how all these commercials have such a surreal quality to them. I can't quite explain it. They really are a product of their time. The Akumajo Densetsu commercial seems to capture the atmosphere of the game really well. Did Simon's Quest also have a commercial?

Possibly an anime commercial considering the art style used in the booklet reminds me heavily of Fist of the North Star.
