[@atomiswave1971]

M2 made these conversions not Konami (Konami only licence games these days, they don't have an inhouse team that I am aware of). I've never played an M2 product that didn't hit a whole bunch of sweet spots (They convert a lot of shooters in Japan from Cave etc). If its M2, its a really great product and I believe making people aware of products being M2 will help them to get other conversions that people want. They are obviously passionate about the work that they do. So anyway, anyone reading this.. M2 made this product. I'll buy the physical edition since its worth the price. I cannot play handheld for long periods of time so having this on the TV with the sound pumping out is just music to my ears.

I already got this, I downloaded it on my Switch as soon as it released. I'm a HUGE Castlevania fan, planning on getting 100% in all three of these. Just wish it had got a PS4 release as well so I could get Trophies for it. (Only current Gen console I have is the Switch) But I'm glad that it has built in Achievements to get! Been playing this almost nonstop since I got it, also Portrait of Ruin is my favorite Castlevania!

I downloaded this game last week on my switch. I was so happy to actually catch up on the DS.

[@lordrikudouzero9119]

It feels like the Lord answers prayers haha! Great video I guess I’ll subscribe😌👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 The only Castlevania I’ve ever beat was Dawn of Sorrow, it is also the first I ever played. I grew up with the Sega Genesis but loved reading about the Castlevania series and missed out on Bloodlines. I owned all three of the DS trilogy games but I was back in school and only beat DoS then got married…I was convinced to sell off my collection and get the Switch. Very happy to have them all back in hand, I’m only missing a few DS/WiiU games now and I intend to finish all of this in the near future🙌🏾

I don't know about the European versions, but complete North American copies of the DS Castlevania games tend to be pretty damn pricey. Luckily I have them all, but since I currently have no working DS and never bothered to set up DS emulators, Konami's finally made me cave on getting a retro collection.

[@leecroft7311]

Planning to buy on Steam for my Steam Deck. I have them for my DS but would love to play in a much larger OLED display. Hopefully one day we get a collection of the two N64 Castlevania games. I have a lot of nostalgia for them, Castlevania (64) was my very first Castlevania game. Always liked it, still do till this day. Without my personal nostalgia for it I no doubt would have completely different feelings for them. I still own the original games for my N64, play them from time to time and still greatly enjoy my time with them.

[@jkemp6791]

We had the same thoughts. I bought it for Steam and the games look incredible on that big OLED screen. You’ll love it.

I agree with 99% of what you are saying but for the love of god can we get some filters? The hard pixels are painful. I play these games regularly on emulators and nearly all emulators have some form of filtering to smooth out the jaggies.
