Castlevania belongs to MercurySteam now. We now must get used to them releasing a new game every 2-3 years with nothing in between. Konami doesn't believe in 2D Castlevania anymore. IGA now works on stuff like "Leedmees" & puzzle games for xbox. Forget 25 years of Castlevania, cuz a new era has begun.


Anyone else as excited as I am?

That's within the bounds of my assumption.

I ask this all the time but nobody answers: does a line-up also include announcements of new games or not? Because if that isn't the case I see no reason to get all worried.

Yet.  :-X

Not sure how Konami does things, but I haves seen line-ups in the past list 'unannounced title' if they have a new game they are announcing.

There was a rumor on NeoGAF that a Castlevania game (along with a Contra and Fire Emblem) will be revealed at Nintendo's 3DS event.

It's unrelated to TGS, so maybe there's still a glimmer of hope. Though the same poster said fans of any of those franchises may be disappointed with the titles...:<

Seems a lot like Castlevania. Maybe this rumour has some merit to it, lol.

I bet It's probably just the NES games converted to 3D or something equally as dissapointing

Goddammit Crisis, stop being a dick and bringing shit down.


There's no need to get all seriously morose and depressed when nothing has happened yet. If TSG goes by and absolutely nothing happens, then we all have a pass to get mopey and such. (and even then, it won't do any good) Until then, quit being such unbelievable downers.

Use your moping time productively.

There is always a chance because it's a new title that it's not on this list. Also thee is a possibility that it might not be ready for a show like TGS, and maybe it will be announced in a magazine or something. I would be disappointed if we don't get any thing, but I'm not setting my expectations high either
What a horrible night to have a curse!

I think the 3D Classics program had only up to 6 or so games planned. Haven't all of them come out then?
