Considering it is the 35th anniversary of the Castlevania franchise...what better way to celebrate than to do a massive retrospective on every mainline game ever released from Konami. From the NES 8-bit originals to the Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Nintendo 64, PS2, Xbox and beyond! Because Castlevania is retro gaming royalty and it's only fitting we pay it some tribute!

So we've already talked about the retro gaming heavy hitter that is Rondo of Blood...so now it's time to talk about its Super Nintendo / Super Famicom pseudo remake...Castlevania: Dracula X! (Also known as Akumajo Dracula XX in Japan and in PAL territories as Castlevania: Vampire's Kiss)
Is this as good of a game as Rondo of Blood? Definitely not! Is it still a legit fun 2D action platformer in the Castlevania franchise? Absolutely! The game gets dragged a bit but it's absolutely still a legit fun game in Konami's Dracula slaying franchise!
This was played on the MiSTer FPGA SNES / Super Famicom core!
