Characters confirmed thus far - Dracula, Simon, Alucard, Shanoa, and Maria Renard.
Classic subweapons - holy water, magic spells, dagger, boomerang
Subweapon use still depends on hearts
Remixed classic Castlevania tunes
Set traps, destroyable environments, enemy monsters interfere with battle
Nunchuck controls character movement, Wiimote used for motion attacks

Also from that new Nintendo Power.

Not too excited for this though

There are not enough

Seriously, what the fuck

Howard Alan Treesong · « **Reply #9 on:** June 26, 2008, 05:50:51 PM »

So is this a vs. fighter? Or a God of War/DMC-style action game?

The system in the OP sound like the latter, but Nintendo fans haven't played real games for a few years so it's understandable they might call it a "fighter"

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #10 on:** June 26, 2008, 05:51:28 PM »

Failton, unless they are bringing in some star fighting game team.

but they probably won't and will probably try to mimic smash bros.

Look at Alucard's face portrait, what the fuck is this shit? I thought they ditched the animu bullshit altogether.

I'm guessing that Ayami Kojima has absolutely nothing to do with this. Goddamn, Konami.

So this is why Simon Belmont wasn't in Smash Bros.

So that they could punch me in the dick with this game.

So it's basically a generic ugly fighter with Death Note characters cosplaying as Castlevania characters. Nice!

Light = Simon

I made the DN reference because of that and...

You will unlock Maria through DS to Wii connectivity. Also, there is a special move gauge that unleashes a “final smash” type super move. You can play via the Wi-Fi connection as well. The graphics look pretty darn good and the concept is solid, but it all comes down to how it plays. It could be great. It could be awful. Time will tell. NP contains an interview with Koji “Ia” Igarashi who produces the Castlevania series, and the new character models are designed by Takeshi Obata, manga artist of Death Note fame.

No dude, the "lizard man" is holding Alucard's sword and has the same ugly shoes as in the other screenshot

I see they got Tom of Finland to do character designs. Modern day Castlevania fans probably deserve this shit, though.

Gross. I'd rather have Castlevania 64 on VC than this.
