From what I can tell, Castlevania has never been a big seller in Japan. Even SotN, best game in the series, only did a little over 200K there. It might have to do with the series atmosphere not appealing to Japanese tastes. Also, IGA stated that the series has always been aimed at Western gamers albeit not directly.
