Topic: Which Castlevania has the most potential of getting a remake?

[X]

Maybe they can remake Lords of Shadow into a Castlevania game. 

*Chuckle* I think Rugal's on to something. And I can see it too.

[Ahasverus]

Bloodlines by a long shot.

Also, we've had this thread before. And it was a poll too!

Bloodlines by a long shot.

I would put Bloodlines before CVIII. That game has a lot of good things in it.

I would put CV3 up before Bloodlines, if only to update CV3 to a newer generation. Bloodline is for all intents a greta game which needs it much less.

Castlevania 3 is the most deserving. Simon's Quest is a choice for runner up.

Rondo would be cool, it's one of the few console ones I haven't played at all yet, along with Bloodlines.

They are both on VC though IIRC so it's not like people don't have access to them, which is usually partially the reason why remakes are done.

My vote would go for Simon's Quest. As someone before earlier said it, it needs a remake.

More than it deserves one, honestly.

I would say it definitely deserves one- It's the prototypical Metroidvania, and has many of the same elements, but sadly was a bit too ahead of itself and therefore was bogged by a shit ton of issues. Slow text, confusing villagers who might as well be saying "BUY NINTENDO POWER", lack of a map, lack of bosses, etc.

if it got a full remake and revamp, it could be an amazing game.

Oh I totally agree, I was mostly poking fun at the general consensus of Simon's Quest.

I'd say remaking should be reserved for the games that need fixing. I was kind of sad that DXC didn't fix the main problem with Rondo - the lack of a difficulty setting or at least a second loop mode like some of the other games.

And I will still continue to advocate a Legend of Dracula Chronicles (Adventure and Belmont's Revenge) until I'm blue in the face.

I can see this point of view too. Adventure ReBirth was a nice play-though of old-school thoughness but it would have been much better if it was it's own original story. So a "proper" remake of Adventure and Belmont's revenge would be sweet to play.

I'm thinking Dracula's curse or Bloodlines or maybe even................................... ...................Oh now I remember! Harmony of Dissonance or something like that...hmmm.

I see your custom member title resembles my username.

I could get behind this. Give the second castle more unique changes, more music, make the enemies not completely brain dead, rewrite the script, and that's many of the problems gone.

I'd also be down with 2D-ising Curse of Darkness. Perhaps enable a second player to control your Innocent Devil ala Kirby Super Star.

Don't forget about BETA version Juste. The overall sprite design and his animations really need a proper makeover.

And, ah- ...less interior design...
