Like almost every castlevania game but Dawn of Sorrow is my favorite

There already is a Castlevania collection with Symphony and Rondo. It's called Requiem collection, and only available for Playstation. Apparently Sony helped fund Rondo, so that's why it's exclusive to their platforms.

Have the castlevania collection, gba collection and now this too. All physically on switch. Amazing collections ESPECIALLY this one. Would LOVE symphony of the night on switch. Imagine a nice remaster. Goodness the potential is there indeed. Great upload mate. Cant wait to dive into this when my copy arrives.

The DS was the Nintendo handheld generation I wound up missing. I look forward to finally getting around to these games.

Also, since you're pitching new Castlevania animes, gimme an Aria/Dawn of Sorrow series, Netflix.

It's hard to believe that OoE is already like 16 years old.
You mentioned that you're not sure how they could properly recreate the MV era of Castlevania without Iga, but I would say it wouldn't be that hard to do. Reason being, we're so far out from that era that there are probably plenty of game designers now who grew up playing and studying his games. I would think they could find someone who would give that job the reverence and attention to detail that it would deserve. I hope so, anyway. Nothing would please me more than getting another trilogy, or an updated version of SOTN and Rondo in Switch.

I played all three DS games when they originally released, and i can say this is easily the best of the Castlevania collections.

Honestly pretty much any action game with mandatory touch screen sections on the DS or 3ds took a massive hit to my enjoyment level. (I have medical issues making drawing precisely, and drawing even remotely well fast a nightmare so I'm glad the touch screen controls are optional in this. Honestly I think the touch screen sections are the main reason Dawn= of Sorrow isn't my favorite Castlevania (Just like I'm certain The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks would be in three my favorite Zelda games, and Phantom Hourglass in my top five instead of both barely escaping my bottom five including all the spinoffs I've played and the three CDI games if the touch screen controls were optional) I still wonder why the lone 3DS native Castlevania isn't in this though.

All the games are good, but I think I like them best in the order they came out. Dawn is still incredible, and portrait really grew on me in the dominus collection, but order isn't my favorite. I remember not really liking it on the DS, and it's still not great. The maps are not good, and it only really becomes "Castlevania" near the end.

Soo Dawn of Sorrow is evidentially a Soulslike

[fredbrandl]

Just wondering if you can get this collection physically or is it only downloadable?

GIVE US RONDO OF BLOOD AND SYMPHONY OF THE NIGHT ON THE NINTENDO
