Classic Castlevania gameplay will not translate well at all to a touch input only system. If they want to capitalize on Castlevania for mobile platforms they need to make a game from the ground up that works intuitively with touch, but has the same emotional elements the series is known for.

Something like "Castlevania The Arcade" would nicely qualify for this actually. Nothing else comes to mind particularly, but I haven't given it much thought.

I play classic CV games all the time on my iPhone. Some are harder to get used to than others but with the right aspect ratio options and button options, it's really not that difficult to get used to.

I agree though, something built from the ground up with a touch screen in mind would be perfect, but it's not hard playing the older games on a touch screen.

How did you download classic CV on your iphone? They only have the puzzle game on the AppStore.

It's not that it's hard, it's that it's shit/bad. Having no feedback is fucking ridiculous.

I play games on my phone but I use my Wii Remote as a controller.
Yes, I carry a Wii remote in my bookbag sometimes. >.>

It also works with my tablet.  Way better gaming experience than using the touchscreen.

As I've said before, the setting and characters have a lot of potential. The platform it was on, well... what everyone else already said is descriptive enough.

Well it's certainly not for everyone but I enjoy being able to play, say, Rondo whenever I want to. It took a little getting used to but its a small price to pay for being able to play it on the go without having to carry a PSP or whatever.

Hmm, maybe something like Sisters Mode from Portrait of Ruin would translate ok into a touch phone interface?

Order of Shadows looks like something I would have loved to have on my Game Gear back in the day.

Exactly. I'd love to see this remade for, say, PSN.

And by the way, great remixes Jorge!  :) +1
