It's worth noting that these comments don't actually come from Konami, but rather the head of Mercurysteam. Who isn't even a licensed DS/Wii developer btw.
I guess Nintendo will have to settle for getting the actual CV games, actually made by Konami, rather than outsourced Clone of War with the IP haphazardly grafted on...

Wait, what?

Lords of Shadow wasn't originally a Castlevania game. In fact, it didn't become one until about halfway through development, when they also stuck Kojima's name on it.

Dave Cox begs to differ.

As he says: They were asked to pitch for a new Castlevania game, and the game was originally gonna be a remake of the original game.
So yeah, what you said is kind of misinformed.

I've seen the interview, it's revisionist history, likely to help ingratiate the game with series fans. Lords of Shadow predates Konami's involvement even, though it was pitched as a CV game upon being picked up. For awhile it was going to be just "Lords of Shadow" too, no CV title.
