CastleVania - NES - Gaming Memories And Review
12This 1986 Famicom Disk System title has spawned to date over 30 direct or indirect titles. Classic is an understatement, and here we have the original in its 1987 cartridge form for the NES. Fantastic music, 8-bit graphical glory, hard as nails but you'll have a blast. In this video review I'll be diving in as someone relatively new to the title, we'll show off some introduction from the manual, read thoughts from the time period featuring several magazines, and I'll even be discussing a game theory that's new (at least to me at this time). Hoping to show both skill along with the pain needed to convey the proper difficulty.
