Topic: Castlevania The Adventure Rebirth first impressions

Anybody know the release date for the US?

This game is a blast. I've played it for a few hours, finally beat it earlier today, and will be embarking on hard mode soon. I love just about everything about it. Makes me wish they make more new side-scrolling Castlevania games of the old style.

I love the arcade- and Sega Genesis-style music. The graphics look very reminiscent of a Game Boy Advance game, which isn't bad, but I'd prefer if it were more up to Super NES or Nintendo DS quality. Still, way awesome.

Although, aside from the fireball-shooting whip, and the rolling eyeballs, I'm confused as to why it's called Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth.

if no one else noticed, chris's sprite is only a red richter
I too am also interested in the US release

Either the U.S. release or how to download the game on my Japanese system. I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. LOL

you need to learn how to use "certain" files on your wii

If you have a Japanese Wii, it should be as easy as buying Japanese Wii points (you can get 'em from Play-Asia.com, for example) and then logging onto the shop channel and buying it.

Hopefully a US release isn't very far away. I hate not paying for the things I like. This and Rondo of Blood and Splatterhouse arcade all need to come out in the States.

So much for collecting a hard copy of this game.  Was anyone lucky enough to get a copy from a gaming event or some shit?

Downloaded the Japanese WiiWare version and ILLEGALLY installed it to my Wii. :o

As for a hard copy... It's not going to happen. This was a download-only game from the start.

For some reason, it won't even let me online to the Wii Shop Channel on the thing. I think I'm just going to download it or something. lol

Actually, it is a new sprite that remsembles richter but walks like chroncles (classic) simon.

Since I dont own a Wii I've been watching some vids on youtube and I must say the game looks pretty awesome. I really like Dracula's design in it.
