Hmmm.. might have to try out the Saturn SOTN if I can find it... Yes I meant Chi no Rondo for TG-16. I guess Adventure would count, although I haven't played it, but it is still a side scrolling platformer, no?

Good luck on getting it, it's still a little pricey for the Saturn. The XBL and PSN versions of the game did cause the disc versions to drop about 50% in price, but that still leaves the Saturn one in the $70-80 range.

And yes, Adventure is in the vein of the original Castlevania. Although, with all the people saying how bad the 64 versions are, it makes me wonder if I should pull them off my backlog, since that's where both of them sit right now. It'd not be too hard to do... :P

Last time I checked you can buy the SOTN greatest hits version for $20 easy.
The black label version is a little more expensive.



1. Dawn of Sorrow
2. Super Castlevania 4
3. Order of Eclessia

Honorable mentions: Castlevania 2, Castlevania 3, Castlevania 64 (yes, I liked it) and Castlevania Judgment (I liked it too)

The least.... I haven't played all Castlevanias, probably Harmony of Dissonance

Harmony of Dissonance is pretty weak...



1. Order of Ecclesia
2. Symphony of the Night
3. Circle of the Moon

Least favorite: Portrait of Ruin or II: Simon's Quest. I haven't played most 3D Castlevania's i'm going by the ones i have and have played. I like both PoR and SQ but not as much as the others i have.

Can't believe OoE has only been mentioned once. Guess nobody liked it, oh well :/



How technical is your game?

OoE has been mentioned 3 times, if I counted correctly :)
