unlabelledView post →Got all achievements on Castlevania Anniversary Collection, fantastic series of games. Weakest game in the collection was probably Castlevania 1 on Gameboy, the slow down was brutal. Castlevania 3, 4 and Bloodlines were fantastic, Bloodlines probably being my favourite.

unlabelledView post →I forgot how the Castlevania Anniversary Collection doesn't even have an in-game "close this entire application" function that you can use with a controller. You *have* to click the X button on the game's window (or force it to close through Steam) in order to close it.

unlabelledView post →Played Castlevania Anniversary Collection, being free on Epic Games. Had to see Reddit to learn the keyboard buttons as my PS4 controller wasn't supported (every other game works ok). Awkward controls aside, Super Castlevania IV was alright! I will never look at wall candles the same way again.

unlabelledView post →We also got the Castlevania Anniversary Collection for free on Epic a couple years back. Never got around to playing any of them, but we really need to. We always knew we'd like this type of game. There's just so many games out there that these just never grabbed us at the right time.
unlabelledView post →I think it’s fitting that I beat the game on an NES (Classic), with an NES controller. My first experience with the game was via the GameBoy Advance port, and then via other ports like the Castlevania Anniversary Collection. My journey never took me to the NES.

It has most of the classic Castlevania games, and it even includes Kid Dracula which is a pretty fun game in and of itself! #Castlevania

unlabelledView post →Hey friends, I decided time's well overdue for me to finally play the original #Castlevania games in order. I am an outspoken lore nerd and I love the franchise, backstory and ofc. the iconic music. Question being: best way to do this? I could go for emulators, or even see if my Analog Pocket supports all the required platforms. Or I could opt for the #CastlevaniaAnniversaryCollection on my Switch, which hopefully would get a similar if not as vintage experience.. Thoughts? :boost_ok:…

unlabelledView post →Game number 11: Kid Dracula I’d have never played this if it weren’t a part of the Castlevania Anniversary Collection. A decently fun NES Pplatformer with a huge difficulty jump starting in level 7. I made it all the way to the final boss before I realized you could attack upwards 😅
