Illusion of Gaia

I've never played that game but have wanted to. This is a perfect reason to try it out.

[obsidianspider]

I'm only a few minutes in, and honestly, I didn't expect this at all.

@obsidianspider What did you expect? ;)

[lilbud]

Reviving this mainly because of the Nintendo Direct and Castlevania characters and stages getting into the newest Smash Bros game.

Over on Twitter, someone recognized a shadow belonging to a certain character.

Kid Dracula is getting an official english release as part of the Castlevania Anniversary Collection.

@lilbud awesome! Do you know if it’ll get a physical release or just a digital?

[lilbud]

@celly I think just digital

And in true Konami fashion, they f**ked this one up

Terrible ports, poor performance on really nice hardware, no button remapping and only one save slot.

I'm just waiting for the inevitable rom dump of Kid Dracula

I know it's half a year late, but with the recent release of the collection, I might as well play it. I first played it around 2001 when I discovered emulators, but it just didn't click.
