I wonder if this is Konami's first step to get back on track. Whatever it is, hopefully this pachislot game will be a successful one! Dat Norio Wakamoto's epic villainous laugh at the first part of the video though.

+1 for Erotic Violence?

+1 for Erotic Violence?

This is what Castlevania's been reduced to.

Rumor confirmed. Never expected they would choose Richter as the protagonist.

I don't want to sound too negative, but as awesome as the assets from these pachislots and pachinkos look, I wouldn't say it's indicative of Konami being back on track, at least in the gaming department.

What makes you think Konami's getting back on track? All I could see in that trailer was... boobs. 

Honestly, you couldn't find a more explicit title than "Erotic Violence". Crappy mobile games, at least, I could sort of shrug off. But if this is what Castlevania is going to be marketed as in the future, well, that's just depressing.

[VladCT]

Welp, at this point I just want to see what the soundtrack's like and be done with it.

EROTIC VIOLENCE, hahaha

Gunlord as new Castlevania series producer confirmed

[Nagumo]

EROTIC VIOLENCE

I wonder if anyone involved in the marketing noticed the unfortunate implications of that phrase. 

[X]

Yeah, no. Konami's not on track cause their train of thought has since jumped its tracks, and fell into a bottomless void never to be seen again. Konami doesn't know what to do with Castlevania anymore. In fact I don't even consider these Pachinko and pachislot games to be-even remotely-Castlevania to begin with. Please! Someone come along and buy the IP 'cause what Konami is doing now is just c**p!

My god, what a disgrace! It looks like Konami is trying their earnest to kill this franchise, holy fucking shit.

"EROTIC VIOLENCE" made me feel temporalily ashamed of being a Castlevania fan, honestly.

[piscesdreams]

I have no words for this abomination.

[Gunlord]

Dat succubus...I can already see the Abicion fanfics now.

[Dark Nemesis]

Dat Gunlord .......never misses a female, even a digital one!!!

[theplottwist]

Also, has anyone noticed that the "Dracula" here bears a strange similarity to Alucard's model used in one of the previous Pachislot? I mean, could this be Alucard?

Joke of the century.
