I sure didn't see that one coming.
Okay, the series does have enough characters for a Super Smash Vania Brawl like thing. It's just so much of a Wii thing. Instead of trying to get the 2D concept working right in 3D (Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness WORKED, but were quite far away from REALLY good games...) we get something completely diffrent, which reeks of something like:
"hey guys, we need casual title for the Wii that targets the adolescent crowd instead of kids and their parents... how abouts something casual with... Metal Gear? No? Ah wait, CASTLEVANIA! But what should we do? A puzzle party game maybe? No, not for that target audience. We need something... For boys. A FIGHTING GAME! There we can throw in all the gay bishonen for the girl audience. INSTANT CASH! Now make something!"
It does have the chance of becoming a good game though. It just doesen't seem right.

That said, I'd sure love to see them trying a new take on Castlevania. I mean, no continuation of Metroidvania, no re-heating of the Lament of Innocence thing. Something new. Something with LESS enemies. Less like DMC-style combat. Just something new. New in the same way they did it with Metroid. Hell, a 3rd person Metroid PRIME-vania could actually work...

Jam it back in, in the dark.
