[edit] We shouldn't use the hack-translation's picture

I don't think that we should use the picture from the hack-translation of the game. I think we should stick to official versions whenever possible. -- Myria 05:36, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Never mind, it's not that. It's just the 2 logos stacked together for illustration. -- Myria 05:39, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Can we please have more infomation about special effects in the Japanese version?

The trival section mentioned that the Japanese version had slightly better graphic and that background in many stages had special effects not seen in the american version. i think some examples would be good. Can someone provide some.

Some examples off the top of my head:

  • Moving sky and lightning in the background of stage 3
  • Lighting also flashes during the boss fight of stage 3, if you choose to finish the stage
  • Moving sky is also present in the first block of the final stage

I don't believe the lightning during the stage 3 boss is present in the US version, but the moving sky background definitely isn't.

[edit] Timewarp?

Anyone else notice that according to the dates this game was released two years before the second installment?

I think you're reffering to Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge, which was an entirely different game for the Game Boy Axe995 05:32, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Release Date

I updated the North American release date from September 1990 to September 1, 1990 based on information I found at Sports, Video Games, Politics. --Brahman 23:19, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
