Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



Look, if Jonathan Holmes can make four little screens of Castlevania Rebirth work, I can do the same with these tiny snippets of video.

Sure, there's only a few seconds of hot new Castlevania Rebirth footage interspersed between Nintendo Weekly's silly flashlight narration, but it's new, and it's worth looking at. I mean, the first WiiWare Castlevania is big news, right? It looks hot, and has big-ass bats and eyeballs to whip up. 

I have nothing else for you. Really. The closest I have to Tron's equal opportunity sexy borders is the cute blonde in the video, Alison. She says nothing, though, as she peers into our soul and makes you excited for Castlevania: Rebirth. I don't know if it's working, Allison, but call me anyway.

That was...wow. Looks cool, I guess. I'll need to see more footage to decide.

That's a crappy type of sexy right there!

I like it, but it looks a little-- its kinda got a rotoscope-ish vibe to it.

Is it possible to hit the uncanny valley with 2D sprites?

Wow, I'm glad the UK's only got Ian Lee to deal with, and it's only once a month.

I'm psyched! Then again, I get hyped for anything with Castlevania in the title.

I wonder how post-SotN CV fans are gonna receive this? Yeah, there was Dracula X Chronicles but what stopped anyone from downloading a savegame just to unlock SotN in it?

The trusty "whip chain"? C'mon guys, it's called the Vampire Killer.

At least this entry should (hopefully) be good. Lords of Shadow has me nervous as hell!

Animation is a little stiff on the Belmont, but overall, looks like they harnessed the power of 2D Castlevania quite well.

I wonder if there will be hidden chests?

It's not a real Castlevania game unless the jump and stand animations are the same.

My buddy Eric wants to know what that chick was doing in this video she didn't do or say anything.

This video felt like a classic Nintendo ad. (sniffle)
Curious if we'll see more =D

I said it then and i say it now, i feel interested in this game. These Nintendo ads makes me feel uncomfortable though, with these people watching at the camera so...vigorously, the blonde is cute though.
