Many people claim this was the official first appearance of "Bloody Tears". It wasn't. "Simon's Quest" had already been out in Japan since the Summer of 1987.
@I pirate retro games so what? I think you're right about the subs, I don't deserve 11k people watching me and that's why I very grateful to anyone who subs to my channel because I'm just a guy talking about things I love. As for Jumping on the hobby for monetary reasons, I'm a film director for my full-time job and make more money In one day doing that than I make on RUclips in a year so I'm not exactly sure what you mean by that. But everyone is allowed to have an opinion.
Funniest walking animation ever lol. Imagine real person walking like this. He's swinging his ass left and right. Attack animation is not much better too. In NES version for example you see the power behind his whips. Here it looks like he's smacking a fly. You don't use a whip like that. Also, 9:49 best boss music
In the case of this game, you didn't miss much. I had the opportunity to play it in my local arcade many years ago and it wasn't great. Probably the worst Castlevania game I've played.
September 1986 was the new era of KONAMI due to Haunted Castle (later Castlevania as a permanent IP for KONAMI) and 1 year later became big 4 of KONAMI's major IP (Castlevania, Contra, Gradius and Metal Gear), Metroidvania change the game.
Since when is the "Stop Watch" such a good item? In basically every other Castleinvain, you can't stop sht, aside from the lowest of the lowest enemies...
@@Zeemis: I never said it was. All I said was that Konami has remade Castlevania several times, and I know full well that this is one of those remakes, reboots, re-imaginings, or whatever word you want to use.
Honestly, the game wasn't much fun to play: The controls were stiff and janky and the game was grossly unfair. All the home computer/console Castlevanias were much more fun to play.
Castlevania on Arcade. Look at me Simon Belmont, i'm walking like i'm need to take a long hot shit. Look me holding meh belly. It feelin heavy. Oh gad i want to too-too. Hope Dracula's castle have good toilets .
One I proudly own on the PS2, thanks to the Oretachi Geasen release. Given to me by a friend, it, and all the others in the series are wallet rapeage now.
I played this in my local arcade many years ago. The visuals are actually quite impressive for the time, but the gameplay was horrible: Stiff controls, floaty jumps and it was almost impossible to make progress without learning exactly what came from where and when. It didn't see much play and didn't stay for long.
i been wanting to get the ps4 version for this game that's on psn to upload my playthrough for it but i honestly cannot stand how horrible the Belmont looks in this arcade version for CASTLEVANIA i mean how the hell Simon Belmont looks Way cooler on NES version both Simon's quest and CASTLEVANIA 4 versus of simon looks ten thousands times better than this fuck all i want to see in ps4 is all other CASTLEVANIA games from retro classics up to all 3D Castlevanias such Cv lament of innocence Cv curse of darkness and CASTLEVANIA lords of shadow saga
At last, Someone whos not a hater of lords of shadow trilogy. What a blessing. As a spanish, because the guys who did those games are from Barcelona, i thank you kindly. The hate comes from plain envy. If the lords of shadow series were american, they would have got skyrocketing rates. But they were made by spaniards so they are just bad for that only reason duh
@@rosiestark7540 People dislike them because it was an unnecessary reboot. Also the first one was loved by a lot, it's the sequel and spin off that messed people dislike
The way Simon walks makes it obvious for me that the only thing he really wanted was to reach the toilet as soon as possible.
That walk cycle. It's like he's holding in the spawn of a dumpster burrito.
16:04 Totally awesome death animation of Frankenstein's Monster.
I just instinctively thumbed up this comment for not referring to him as the doctor.
I liked the unwrapping mummies too.

HELL YEAH SIMON'S QUEST
You mean Dracula II Noroi no Fuin.
@@Nahuelx No, he means Simon's Quest!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@Zeemis But the correct translation is "Dracula II Seal of the Curse" that's the game's true title.
8:20: OMG! Actual Bloody Tears!

Outta my way, need to poop. *Whips*

He's trying to hide an erection.
I consider my self a a person who knows a lot about video games and I had no idea that this existed. Blood Tears and every thing.
Media Glitch Do you know about Oni then?
@@ikagura I know the game called "Oni" but I feel like that might not be what you're referring to.

Oh I dunno, Bobby from, Riot City was it? With his jive ass power walk.
17:39 simon falling of the platform and running at the same time
Glad they made a CastleVania Arcade game.
sainttrunks1982 they did two actually.
And a DOS game

ryan1303a Isn't it ironic that someone would make a really awful arcade version of Castlevania?
CaptainFoufeu - Twas a dreadful attempt my good man
That's the walk you do when you're walking to the toilet after having too much spicy food.
Still to this day I don't understand the Hitboxes on that Golem(?) Boss on Level 4.
I love the teleportation effects in stage 3. That's badass
16:19 - 17:58 ..... How long is this bridge? Holy cow
I'm more concerned with how in the hell he was able to keep moving with half a foot on the edge of the abyss. O.O
10:00 Stained Glass Knight from Young Sherlock Holmes.
When you are at work all day and refuse to go to the toilet.
I can't believe I never knew Castlevania had arcade releases.
It also had a lightgun game on arcades,very cool

This game amazingly has everything you like about Castlevania and nothing like you like about Castlevania.
Looks great, plays like a turd.
Hahahah
I love the way the skeletons walk
Dracula got his laugh from Ganon.

17:35 Jesus christ, WAY too close for comfort.
They definitely should remaster this.
Konami has remade Castlevania SEVERAL times.
@@Loader2K1This is not a port of the original Castlevania.

Great Castlevania Arcade Port.
Its not a port.
1 Not a port 2 could be better

The walking animation looks like he's about to shit himself.
lol, Draculas death howl: "OOOOOOOOOH!"
This game is hardest! Nice gameplay!
It's also because the Japanese version is far easier than the western versions
Super Cool ☺
Es bellísimo visualmente 🖤🦇
Excellent game got this for my import PS2
this game may be crap but at least we got basement melodies cross your heart and dont wait until night from it
Brandon Gonzalez He is not crap, he is Very old.
Castlevania? On arcade?!
The bridge to Dracula seemed like a challenge harder than Dracula himself 🤔

Where Is the Grim reaper AND the werewolf.
um, what happened at the end???
After killing Dracula, Simon rescues his wife Selena, then they both escape and watch the castle get destroyed.
epic
Who misses classicvania?
Wasted a lot of quarters playing this game.
In what arcade did you find this game?
Can't remember the name of the place. But it was in my hometown in Stephenville, Newfoundland, Canada. That was over 30 years ago.
#MarkKing Oh ok
Anyone wanting to do a Haunted Castle Simon walk meme, now's your chance! 😊
So this is the idea that spawned Castlevania it came out a year before the nes game in the west it's known as vampire killer
actually Akumajou Dracula for Famicom disk system is the first Castlevania game that came out
Not quite: It's an early Castlevania game rather than a forerunner to the series. Don't be fooled by the name of the Western release!

S Jake I feel you but good music though ain't no lie in that
@@stormyking80 I'll be honest, I didn't notice how good the OST was at the time. I was too busy trying not to die!
Да это же Гойко Митич в роли Чингачгука!
KONAMI
I thought that the game on nes is first version, but it turns out this first
This Japanese version is far better than the crap we got.
So is this game different from the US Castlevania games ?
It's not directly related to any of the console games, if that's what you're asking.
esse é dificil . . .
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
nice sprite animation but game play was weak
Brasil
"Haunted Castle"
Akumajou Dracula: The Arcade
1987
How ugly this game is, and how beautiful on the PC Engine CD home console
That's a very unfair comparison: It actually looks pretty impressive for a 1988 arcade game.
The sound is fantastic however the gameplay, graphics, environment are terrible
Esse jogo é constrangedor 😅
i been wanting to get the ps4 version for this game that's on psn to upload my playthrough for it but
i honestly cannot stand how horrible the Belmont looks in this arcade version for CASTLEVANIA
i mean how the hell Simon Belmont looks Way cooler on NES version
both Simon's quest and CASTLEVANIA 4 versus of simon looks ten thousands times better than this
fuck all i want to see in ps4 is all other CASTLEVANIA games
from retro classics up to all 3D Castlevanias such Cv lament of innocence
Cv curse of darkness
and CASTLEVANIA lords of shadow saga

The animation is terrible. The music on the first stage is horrible and grating due to it's corniness.
