I apologize for that wall of text. Best platforming action/adventure type game ever belongs to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. No doubt Miyamoto is also up there but he has yet to touch the depth offered in even the very first Metal Gear title in the NES with the Outer Heaven conflict. On a side note I enjoyed the first pitfall on the atari 2600 more than I ever enjoyed SMB 1. It wasn't until SMB3 that I was wowed by true innovation. Oh and as a Nintendo loyalist I hope you do realize SMB2 was exactly the same as SMB1 except harder. What americans know as SMB 2 is doki doki panic with Mario skins thrown in for good measure. 

 

Hey, in case you didn't know (and you don't seem to) 'Castlevania Symphony of the Night' was actually a total rip-off of Metroid (though a great game none the less) which is a nintendo franchise!

I would have thought someone who seems to be so knowledgible in the history of video games would know that!

You sure it wasn't just an improved version of the formula of Castlevania 2?  Come on guys.  Nintendo is great.  But not all video game ideas originate from them. 

EXACTLY, it's funny how everything has to originate from either Zelda, Mario and Metroid somehow some way, and how Miyamoto is god. It is the same thing over and over again with the Wii fan base. Seems they have forgotten about Castlevania 1 then Castlevania 2 Simon's Quest which tried to be different. SOTN incorporated elements from both those games and stayed true to the franchise. Hell we can also say that Ninty took alot of their ideas from C64 and Atari 2600. Remember pitfall? remember the C64 popeye game ported to the NES? lol. 

So as he stated no, SOTN didn't ripoff Metroid, it simply took from it's own set of games and improved upon the formula and made a masterpiece that many publications and sites consider SOTN to be in its own league.
