Quarter of a century? It can’t have been that long since the original…oh…oh no…

Then you won’t be horrified at all to learn the original Castlevania was released on NES in 1987, right?

That’s fine until you tell me that’s almost 40 years ago!

No that’s the point I’m making. When I read the headline I was horrified that it’s been that long since the original and they’re not even talking about that.

Time is a son of a bitch.

It just sounds like you are saying that the original Castlevania came out a quarter of a century ago, which would be 1999.

No I didn’t say it originally came out then I said that my first knee-jerk reaction was that it couldn’t possibly been that long since the original and then I came to realize it’s been so much longer

We get what you meant. And I totally agree with the reaction.

Don’t know why that person is having a tough time getting it.

NES releases don’t bother me because I was still a kid when I played them. Things released twenty years ago bother me because it seems like yesterday given that I was already an adult with an established career and a mortgage.

That’s what it said in the title, a quarter century ago.

Has anyone played it? I wonder if its any good… I always thought that N64 game was generally considered one of those awful 3d renditions of a 2d classic.

Castlevania 64 was clearly an unfinished game. The first couple levels make their ambitions clear, and the rest of the game is just sort of slapped together. Legacy of Darkness added the rest of the game.

Nobody really celebrates these games. I grew up with them and can appreciate the experience they were offering, but they weren’t exactly my favorites, and I don’t feel they aged particularly well. Maybe take a look through a long play video before committing any real time to it.
