Are you talking about Vs. Castlevania then? It's basically just a port of the NES game but designed for competitive gaming. Or maybe you're playing a PlayChoice-10 unit.

The game being discussed in this thread is this:

Castlevania The Arcade Part 1

This is straight up the NES version on a coin operated machine.  Nothing fancy, but the machine's physical layout is, like, a card table, like old-school pac-man.  You have to sit down at it, and are looking down at the screen, which essentially is a table top. 
It is not a competitive platform.  Just old school, bats flying up from the silhouette of the castle when Belmont goes trecking up to the gate with the huge bat as your first end boss where you really want to hit the candle that has the axe sub weapon in it Castlevania.
I apologize for missing the train, just got a hard on for the old school stuff.

Oh yeah, those. I wonder what those arcade game tables are called.

Can't imagine it would be very comfortable playing Castlevania like that, ha.
Oh yeah, and also:
meat

Soda as well.

LOL, yes, it's a little rough, but it can draw an audience when you have a decent run.

How responsive is the 'whipcord'?

Also, how would you rate the stages? Are they similar to House of the Dead or something?

How long is each chapter, 5-10 minutes?

Are the boss battles fun?

1. It was pretty responsive at first it wasn't but i realized there was a spot you had to stand in and from there it was perfect lol

2. Stages were gorgeous! from the 2 i survived to see the full thing in lol

3. 5-10 mins sounds about right

4. Bosses were fun, but hard as hell.

You know, it would be cool to have this game in every arcade across the US-Hell, all over the world. Even if it's not translated in English, I'd still play it regardless.
