[TAS] NES Kid Dracula by adelikat, Randil, arukAdo & DarkKobold in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/1337M
TAS originally published on 2009-08-09
For the fans of the Castlevania series ― here's a TAS of a Castlevania game that is hmm.. much much more aimed toward children than the darker-themed games. The game was only released in Japan.
There is also a Game Boy sequel ( tasvideos.org/2928M ) that is known as Kid Dracula.
This is a 50+ second improvement over the previous movie ( tasvideos.org/89M ) by Phil ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/Phil ) and Genisto ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/G... ).

Commentary from adelikat ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/a... ) and DarkKobold ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/D... ) are available in the downloadable encodes and in closed captions on the KZbin link.

First boss is literally a Klansman...oh boy those games in the 80s and 90s...

[@Jokerbuzzed]

Read your post and I just thought you were exaggerating. But nope. Swastika and all. Right there. Dear lord.

[@aruhe6650]

@@Jokerbuzzed the swastika isn't an exclusively kkk symbol you know

[@Jokerbuzzed]

lol I'm not going to argue the bastardization of a idealisms adopted by the Nazi movement. That's clearly a clansman.

Be sure to enable closed captions to read the authors commentary (as well as banter)

[@SharkySSharkington]

It's entertaining without it, but the banter just brings it to a whole new level! Highly recommended! :D

[@sparkly9294]

The commentary is so endearing. These nerds are adorable.

[@darkkxxzeroxx]

Agreed I learned so much from the one guy I cant think of his name right now

[@tylorian5168]

I remember enjoying this game in the Castlevania collection. I got stuck on the level with the rocket; I’d keep getting knocked off 😖.

[@fujin27]

Hey I’m the one guy that didn’t die of boredom from the manipulation explanation of the ladder game lol. Comments were pretty funny!

[@fujin27]

I also didn’t die from the Lionel Richie reference. I was singing along lol

[@ramiromurga4832]

Very cool TAS and comentary XD!

[@topicaltv9623]

This game has an unnecessarily good soundtrack. Why haven't I heard this sampled anywhere?

[@xisktrl]

lol

[@shyguy4no1]

holy crap man... that may have been the first remix of bloody tears I have ever heard of.

[@Jokerbuzzed]

2:37 Those witches are thicc! Also I love the remixed theme of the first level. Light and cheery take on a gothy theme. Actually works really well.

[@ursagil]

I loved the comments! Nice work!

[@cherrycheetos]

this game had me going "awww, how cute" then "wait why does it looks so much like castlevania" then "whAAAAAT???!??!?" in like, two minutes

[@leonardovieiradesouza8115]

Loved the snarky comments

[@ziggykatz12]

Surprisingly fun-looking game!

[@adamwatts2000]

It looks fun, its nintendo hard🤣

[@NonMeaCulpa]

Well, that certainly was a... Game.

[@trentonthompson247]

The fourth boss seems to be a parody of Salamander's dragon boss, and 7th boss drops an Ebisumaru coin

[@PASRC]

That is one sexy lag counter

[@Blueberrir]

Noice tas

[@victorhugocastillohernande8205]

Yo lo jugaba en las maquinitas cuando la ficha costaba 10 centavos, hasta apenas hoy me doy cuenta que se llama Kid Drácula!!!

[@malcovich_games]

Wait, i thought the best selling game of all time was Tetris? Not [the answer to the flying pirate ship question]...

[@bahamut256]

10:00 I have to disagree, in the real subway in New York there are way more zombies than in this game, and they usually lack pants.

[@edwardgaines6561]

They're not bottomless, they're homeless!

There commentary is 👍🔥

[@WhiteThumbs]

I watch at x2 speed cause TAS

[@Randomno2]

Some numbers missing from the commentary at 7:24, 10:40, 13:32, 14:54. Wonder why only these numbers didn't work correctly.

[@Pfizer980]

Nostalgic game! I was maybe 7 when I play it, now I'm 37. The 1 level I couldn't pass was the night on the building, where the boss was liberty statue quiz coz I don't understand japanese

[@Cool750Boy]

5:38. Kills boss and then moonwalks off stage. Hilarious!

[@KimeramonRocks]

How did Count Dracula become a kid? He didn't become a vampire until he was an adult. Since this is kid Dracula and not kid Alucard, this isn't Alucard.

[@Formula_Zero_EX]

So if this is Young Dracula, then how did he suddenly have sunlight as his weakness when he got older?

[@edward9487]

I suppose being younger has its strengths and weaknesses.

[@dungvuanh6417]

I remember this game is a parody about Alucard of Castlevania not Dracula

[@Chernobog2]

In the original Dracula novel sunlight was not fatal to Dracula, however it would render him unable to use most of his powers until his next sleep

[@Formula_Zero_EX]

@@dungvuanh6417 oh okay

[@MilMaska]

Ok. Fist of all. Why does a dracula function in day light

[@palmuela]

It's a young Alucard... Not Dracula.

[@johneygd]

This game feels more like an aftertout game(af if konami did run out of ideas) and then tout “hey let’s make a dracula kid game” then came up with this weird mashed up castlevania adventure island 2 batman game, Now there got to be another game with flying pirate ships other the SMB3, maybe muper sario knows more about that🤣

That first boss wasn't what I expected, to put it mildly, Haven't watched ahead yet, but I assume second boss is Medusa except she's a member of the John Birch Society, and the third boss is a pair of mummies in MAGA hats.
