Castlevania’s triumphant 2-D return to consoles...More than just a dream?
Devil May Sly | 5:53 PM on 06.17.2008 5 comments




Famed producer Koji Igarashi was recently interviewed by Gamasutra about the splendiferous world of 2-D gaming, and what his thoughts of its future were. The short interview was an interesting read, but one thing that IGA said stood out from the rest.

“This time, I announced a DS title, but I definitely want to grow the franchise. It's something I'm really focused on. You guys will probably be hearing something from me.”

It’s a leap, but with a statement like that, one could assume the possibility of Castlevania being made for a console once again? Up until now it was a complete pipe dream to think that we’d have another console Castlevania that wasn’t a 3-D abomination. Not to mention the series’ long-winded streak of being released solely on handhelds.

So with the ever so slight glimmer of hope that we may get to see the Symphony of the Night of this generation, is anyone else besides me giddy as a schoolgirl at the idea of it?

So long as it stays away from full 3D, I'll gladly hype myself up for it.

Amen to that. The world doesn't need another Curse of Darkness or Lament of Innocence...And it ESPECIALLY doesn't need another Castlevania 64.
