>Akumajou Dracula XXX

Akumajou Dracula is Castlevania 1, or its MSX/SNES/X68000 reimaginings.
Akumajou Dracula X is Rondo of Blood.
Akumajou Dracula XX is that half-assed SNES port.
Akumajou Dracula X II is the working title for what became Symphony of The Night, Rondo's sequel.

... what's Akumajou Dracula XXX then?
Is it a special pornographic version of SOTN set in the Netflix continuity starring Alucard?

You're ugly gaywad

Not this retarded meme again.

>>6697493
Why ain’t Maria playable unless someone mod & code it.

>>6697435
Huge reason Netflix is woke trash. Former Tumblr and other sjw go die.

Shit game and uninteresting thread

>>6697926
haha, OK anon.

>>6696981
We've known about this for weeks. Could've had more threads on it if the Nintoddler Luigi faggotry didn't derail the leak threads.

>>6697926
Nintendildos will never know a good Castlevania game.

I knew it was australia-kun, kek. If it's a Castlevania IV thread, you can count on the guy being on it.

Wasn't this part of the gigaleak?
>new forest BGM
>cool-looking overworld map
>map uses a variation of treasure room BGM

>>6698006
Yeah it's from the recent leak.

>>6698006
yeah, though it's unrelated to Nintendo.
Apparently the developers sent random prototype roms to each other and these happened to be archived accidentally.

DS GAMES > GBA GAMES > SNES > NES

>>6698342
You could just simplify it by saying that you prefer Metroidvanias.

>>6698347
>like metroidvania.
not exactly

Anon, with all due respect, have you actually tried to play the Richter mode in SOTN? It's sadly disappointing, as you realize how pointless it is. You just aimlessly wander around hallways getting to bosses that you quickly kill with Hydro Storm (or spend like 30 minutes hitting them like damage sponges), then collect... heart replenishers.
The game was built around Alucard and collecting upgrades and skills to be able to reach new areas to the castle. Playing as Richter shows how wildly different from a classicvania it is. It doesn't even have bottomless pits, and you can indefinitely jump in the air. It's a nice extra, a curiosity, but it's still a metroidvania.

THROUGH A ROOM! build never

>The New Generation

Hi Australia-kun

https://youtu.be/YleVacKvus8
Someone found a strange unused ambient bit in the files. In the comments, he implies there is another unused song in the files as well, in addition to the unused Forest Stage music. Can someone locate it?

The Bloody Tears remix in the proto video for vendors is a CV holy grail.

>>6697943
What is the problem with US Castlevania III? I have only played and finished the JP version.

>>6696981
It looks like shit. This is as unexciting as it gets.

>>6700767
How new are you? That post is by Australia-kun, shitposter extraordinaire that has a raging hateboner for Nintendo.
Notice how he doesn't list a single Nintendo castlevania on his "Best" list.
He's been at it for years now.

>>6699987
>he implies there is another unused song in the files as well
So has he found it himself?

>>6700776
Yeah, but why only the US version if the JP version is also on Famicom.

>>6700767
It has a number of questionable changes, e.g. monsters deal damage based on stage (as opposed to each monster having their own attack strength), so later monsters all deal a lot damage, even bats. The main difference, though, is the music: the Famicom version has an additional hardware chip in the cartridge that provides more channels.

Well, apart from being anti-Nintendo, australia-kun is also fervently anti-USA, pro-PAL (notice he specifically used The New Generation, despite being a censored version of Bloodlines)- He's actually not even a fan of japanese video games, mostly an Amiga fanboy, but who likes to stir shit between Sega and Nintendo.
Anyway, the US CV III has more difficult balancing when it comes to throwing knifes with Grant, and also the japanese version has a more impressive OST due to having an extra chip on the cart, so generally the JP version is considered superior.

>>6700814
Poor man, how can someone have such a shitty taste?
>>6700809
>>6700814
I'm glad I played the JP version, then.

>>6700804
The 56% version has butchered music. IIRC Australia-kun likes the JP version, the only Nintendo CV game he'll actually praise.

>>6700814
How can anyone be pro-PAL given 50hz, most games never being released there. Terranigma is one of their only crown jewels.

>>6700842
If you're familiar with Australia-kun's style of posting, he's not a very rational individual. At first it may seem like he's just a regular shitposter trying to get (You)s, but he's a bit more complex than that... probably a real life schizo. He thinks Nintendo is his personal enemy, or something, same with yanks.

>>6698067
I think they were in a folder named with a Nintendo employee's name. Makes me wonder if Nintendo offered some sort of consulting services for third party developers and that guy handled those games.

>>6700850
I can see why he might be hostile to Nintendo given how they neglect the pal region

>>6699987
>there may be more unused music
I hope that's true and someone finds it

>>6700864
Weren't most of the protos early SNES games rather than later ones? SCV for example. It'd make sense Nintendo would have greater involvement for devs wanting to put out early titles

>>6698456
All of this. And IGA still hasn't figured this out with Bloodstained's laughable Zangetsu Mode.

>>6700767
I heard one of the versions is easier, probably the JP one. Kinda like Ninja Gaiden III.

>>6700916
IGA doesn't allocate large portions of budget to extra modes. Thats how he survived with cv games selling 100-300k units for so long.

>>6700786
Yeah, he explains how to find it in the comments on that video. I don't understand him though. I don't know how to navigate these files.

>>6700770
Are you the same guy spouting
>Muh luigi omg l is real guys
everywhere?

>>6697951
>>6696981
Not bad, but still a far cry from the build shown in this promos
