majob Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Wishful thinking on my part but I hope it has the handheld games as well. Otherwise I expect it to be all of the classic games along with the ps2 ones judging from the artwork Edit: Also at this point there's no excuse to not release a Suikoden collection if they want to do a retro drive Edited March 12, 2019 by majob 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G4Knight Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I wonder if this means the first 3 or 4 games, at least the numbered entries, or an actual LET’S FUCKING GO handheld games collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodytears1666 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) I want all the stuff from all Nintendo consoles, and preferably something from PS2 era too. It will be quite sad to see the trilogy again, with this really huge Castlevania line of games. Edited March 12, 2019 by Bloodytears1666 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asvinia Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Kind of promising, puts me off getting the Rondo/SotN games on PSN until we know more though. I hope it includes the DS games but I know it probably won't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_87 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 This collection is too good to be true. SOTN was classified ages ago for PC and only the PS4-exclusive castrated PSP port of Dracula X Chronicles came out of it. I with this collection includes all 2D games (just remove the "touch" crap from the NDS games), but i'm probably asking too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeSplit Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I'd love to see Dawn of Sorrow, Portrait of Ruin, and Order of Ecclesia. I'm guessing it'll be the original three though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodytears1666 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I'm totally agree with poster above, Curse of Darkness was full of cool stuff. To me it was SotN 3D at it's best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caesar Clown Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I enjoyed both Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness, and I'd definitely pick them up again on PS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelly Soup Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I'd love to have the PS2 games on a modern system. Never got to play Lament of Innocence. And Curse of Darkness is good stuff. 18 minutes ago, majob said: Defeats the purpose of calling it an anniversary collection Unless it's for the anniversary of the Lords storyline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pumpkin Head Cthulhu Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) The CLoS games were amazing, but I would like to see a more classic collection first.They could do a classic collection, a metroidvania collection, a 3D collection and a CLoS collection. Just please leave that crappy one out with the buffy-wanna-be. Edited March 13, 2019 by Void Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, so long as where dreaming, let's also toss in Judgement and the two N64 games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEI2EK Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Castlevania is one of the series I’ve never touched. I do have SOTN for my vita though. Depending on what’s in this I’ll probably grab it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metal Slime King Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I hope they've been eyeing Capcom Mega Man Legacy collections and just decide to barf out the entire series with a trophy for competing each game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judgement is a hardsell even for the most hardcore of Castlevania fans. But I've always felt that it wouldn't be as bad with proper controls. And the OST is pretty boss.
