Konami will be releasing anniversary collections for Castlevania and Contra

Sonic Angel Knight · Mar 20, 2019

YAY CONTRA!

I mean... CASTLEVANIA!

I mean both!

Now make a new game.

Hell yeah, old school Konami made some great friggin' games. I missed out on a lot of Castlevania titles and originals are hella expensive now, so it's a good time for them to cash in. I'll pick up the Contra pack too, but they should also do a 'best of SNES' pack.

Contra III is all I needed to see. Gimme!

Four mystery games? DON'T DO THIS TO ME KONAMI PLEASE

The Castlevania II being released is not Simon’s Quest, it's Belmont's revenge... the GB one :/

WiiHomebrew+Snes · Mar 20, 2019

Thanks Konami, Very Cool

A lot of people don't like the second game on the NES.

Also, what, Konami doing something smart for once?

I am going to be the negative one that a lot might hate, but fuck Konami for trying to sell me on nostalgia. This is cool and all, but when are we going to see new versions of these games? When are they going to stop firing their best people? When are they going to stop being a shit company? This doesn't make up for the years of shit they've pulled.

I liked simons quest, if there’s anything people didn’t like, I would say it was the villagers dialogue, it was translated wrong, if they want though even though it wasn’t by them, I believe there was a patch made that fixed that problem. Konami I guess could use that and hopefully give credit to whoever fixed the dialogue.

Woah wut, Konami remembers they have those ips?
I was thinking all they knew what to do was fuck themselves over and make gambling machines

Iirc actually even in the japanese version the villager spouted bs, so, like, it wasn't really translated wrong, unless I'm switching up a different game here

I don’t think there will ever be a good castlevania game again, the main person that helped make the game good, makes the bloodstained games and that’s why even though there’s only going to be two bloodstained games at the moment, those games might always be better than castlevania, even though bloodstained is like playing castlevania.

"Digital-Only"?

I pass.

There won't be a good one because Konami spent the past couple of years literally digging themselves into a hole. I just wish they weren't selling us something like this because it doesn't change the fact that they've basically ruined their own company and they are now just hoping to sell us on our nostalgia

gamecaptor · Mar 20, 2019

My money is that we’ll get the WiiWare Castlevania, Contra and Gradius titles in here.

Hyro-Sama · Mar 20, 2019

And of course Suikoden doesn't exist to Konami.

Vhestal · Mar 20, 2019

Imagine, one of the fated four would be Order of Ecclesia.

If nintendo isn't releasing virtual console, the other companies will.

Other companies do what Nintendont.

osaka35 · Mar 20, 2019

digital only is no fun. maybe it'll get a limited edition physical run if it sells well. I'll wait and see. I've only ever played super castlevania, but always hear good things of some of the others.
