I wouldn't mind prepping either. Perhaps a little Castlevania IV is on the menu tonight.

I do enjoy the franchise but the graphics are weak. Maybe other gorgeous 2d games have spoiled me on the Wii but this is totally lacking.

It looks worse than Castlevania IV on SNES which is a shame. No 16x9 mode either?

I know Wiiware has limitations but still it could and should look better

I would agree with you that the game doesn't hold up to the gorgeous 2D offerings of "A Boy and His Blob" and "Wario Land: Shake It!" but I do have to point out that the intent of this "Rebirth" series is to make games that look like they were made for the SNES. It took it's cue from "Mega Man 9."

Perhaps that may help you formulate your opinion of how the game is looking now. I for one love it's retro-ness. I will be purchasing Wii Points for this one for sure.

Looks great! I'm so excited for this game! But not excited for how slowly he makes his way up stairs. What's the deal with that?

More than a classic remade, I want to see HD remakes of the GBA games for the 360 and PS3. High definition Circle of the Moon would be pure bliss.

The graphics and sound both seem incredibly cartoony to me. In my opinion the best thing about Castlevania is the atmosphere, so I'm pretty disapointed.

The music sounds like a lot like the music from Castlevania Bloodlines, otherwise, it's a cool. Almost sounds like Ninja Turtles, doesn't it?
