Topic: Circle of the Moon 3DS should be the next 3DS Vania.

[Dremn]

It's often talked about by a lot of fans, and many people are quite fond of the game. However, it's definitely shown it's age. I think for the time being if Konami can't find a new team to make the next Vania on 3DS, they should remake CotM.

You can delete this thread if it's too general/vague, I just thought it would be really neat to see it happen.

What about a... you know... original game?

Well, that's why I pitched this as a what if scenario if Konami can't assemble a new team or rehire IGA after LoS2.

Since we're talking about a CV done by the same group, they should remake Legends

One thing I liked about Circle of the moon over the other gba titles was the darker ambience the game had.

While I still hold Aria of Sorrow in higher regard I still am very much fond of Circle of the Moon and would love to see a remake of it.

But not before getting a remake of Castlevania 3.

Or better yet, bring on the 1999 game.

How about a more Direct Sequel to CoTM or ever OoE, The Non-Belmont Era could use some elaboration

[Munchy]

I could get behind it. Expand the DSS system, up the enemy and locale variety by a lot, throw in some more original music, and for God's sake have one default reasonably fast running speed because double-tapping all the time was awful. (I do dig the original but these would have been welcome changes.)

An original game would be preferred though. I'm quite fond of the punishing Metroidvania flavor of CotM and OoE, so any games in that vein would be godlike.

I won't oppose a remake, but they are like a little bonus to me.
Konami would have to be REALLY STUPID if they can't come up with some idea for a new game.
However, considering Konami IS INDEED VERY, VERY STUPID, anything can happen after LoS.
Even not getting more CV games.

I'm not being negative, but until I see a game I won't have faith in anything (an actual game; not announced, but released; they already got me with once that trick, stupid Konami).

How about 1897 (covering the events of Dracula in a highly altered style) for the portable and 1999 as the greatest (sidescrolling) game ever on next-gen consoles?

[Shiroi Koumori]

Do not make a remake yet. GBA games can still be played by the older DSes.

I prefer an original game: the 1999 game to be exact.

If they really would want to make a remake, get the older games.

[shelverton.]

I'd buy any remake anyday, but rather than remaking CotM, I think they should remake a game that's aged much worse than that. And that would be CV64/Legacy of Darkness. Imagine it with glorious next-gen HD graphics... It would be a really bold move by Konami, and they would probably change the game way too much to make it more modern, but it would be very interesting nonetheless.

I don't want the OLD-CV remake. I want port.

Since we're talking about a CV done by the same group, they should remake Legends

Legends made by KCEN.

The 1999 Game has one big Problem, a genre crisis.
The Franchise suggests a 2d-3d Metroidvania...
The War suggests a MOBA-like game similar to Guilty Gear 2 Overture...

in all I would find it cool if they combined the two genres in a creative way

[Intersection]

Oh yes; without a doubt. An HD remake of CoTM would be... incredible. I'd been dreaming about it for years.

Though I'll recognize that remaking Circle wouldn't actually be a very good idea. I certainly hope Konami can come up with an original game. And yes, if Konami had to remake a title, it should go for the N64 games.

But I'm not giving up my idea. I will see Circle of the Moon in HD... Someday.

[Nagumo]

Although I would prefer a prequel, revisiting CotM's aesthetics is definitely a concept I can stand behind.
