CV1 > CV3 > BLOODLINES
The gameplay is tight enough to be arcade quality, I don't see why people shouldn't play it.
No shit, dont be such a "anything japanese dry humping dork" :rolleyes:Quote:

Sorry I was giving Gozen a hard time. I actually know the guy. Didn't mean to spam it up.Quote:

In my view the best of the series is (in no order)
Simon's Quest
64/Legacy of Darkness (Doesn't get respect)
SOTN
Aria Of Sorrow
Oh the blasphemy, I can barely take it. Dabnabit, Castlevania is an action/arcade game where one goes through relatively linear levels of a castle, to fight Dracula at the end. Or at least that's the way it should be. Your favorite Castlevanias lacking a "true" vania is interesting.Quote:

Dracula X

Huh? At what point did I say I preferred it? At what point did I say I'd even played it? At what point did I say it was better? Oh that's right, I didn't. I said it wasn't Mario 2, because it wasn't. It has nothing to do with what's Japanese and what isn't, it has to do with that it was a relabelled game. You claimed that Nintendo took a chance by having Mario 2 vastly different from the original and that was a wrong statement. Fact. You even just said so yourself.Quote:

Calling Castle of Shikigami a sequel to Gigawing 2 is merely a case of not knowing the subject matter. However, if you already know a game isn't what the name implies (as you did), then making such statements is merely acting stupid.Quote:

The last half of that sentence didn't form anything coherent. Please try again.Quote:

Allow me to nitpick your nitpicking. Telling him that it's Doki Doki Panic is stupid because they released the same game in Japan under the name of Super Mario USA. My Japanese GBA cart of this game is not Doki Doki Panic, it's Super Mario USA. Doki Doki Panic is Doki Doki Panic. SMB2 is not Doki Doki Panic. Neither is Super Mario USA.
Regardless, the fact that this whole argument exists makes me want to puke. Inane bullshit.
MechDeus:
I don't think he actually was inferring that you liked the japanese version of Mario 2 more, I think it was more the fact you were coming across like one of those people that disregard anything that is not the true Japanese name. You know, the kinda people that get huffy when you call Final Fantasy VI; Final Fantasy 3.
The fact Super Mario Bros. 2 was simply a relabelled sprite-raped Doki Doki Panic is inconsequential to JMETs point. It was different, Nintendo took a gamble as there might have been backlash over the huge differences in gameplay. Possibly even more so than if they just released the "Lost Levels", which was simply too hard for us inferior gaijin.
That's how I took it too, hence my response.Quote:

I don't know what the fuck is wrong with some people.
Doki Doki Panic does also have slight gameplay differences that seperate it from the US Super Mario Bros. 2. Besides, Nintendo has rereleased the US Super Mario Bros. 2 in Japan as "Super Mario USA" three times now: Famicom, Super Famicom, and GBA.
