Why were the Castlevania games for Nintendo systems so awful?

Vampire Killer > Castlevania
Rondo of Blood > Dracula's Curse
Bloodlines > Super Castlevania IV
Chronicles > Adventure ReBirth
Symphony of the Night > GBA/DS

And yet, the Nintendo games are the ones people only ever praise.
>>
I like them all :3 except for amigavania, that one is truly a horror.
>>
>>3400980
What did you dislike about Amigavania?

They were okay games, just bad Castlevania games.
>>
>>3400960
>Vampire Killer > Castlevania

So fucking wrong

>Rondo of Blood > Dracula's Curse

Also wrong, but both are great.

>Bloodlines > Super Castlevania IV

Kill yourself.

>Chronicles > Adventure ReBirth

Only one right, but both good

>Symphony of the Night > GBA/DS
All of them are shit doesn't matter.

Basically end your life.

holy shit, even worse taste than OP's

Hi, Australia-kun. I seriously don't know anyone who genuinely likes the MSX Dracula over the FC original.
>>
>>3400960
>Vampire Killer > Castlevania
Isn't Vampire Killer just the Japanese name of Castlevania? Like with Resident Evil and Biohazard?
>>
>>3401147
Of course. The MSX version requires more skills and intelligence to clear, so most people obviously will prefer FC CV.
>>
Man, I sure hate nintendo!

Everytime someone says they like Nintendo, I feel like pulling my eyes out of my skull, no kidding, I might have a mental disease though.
>>
>>3401162
I think he means the MSX version, which is a pretty bad game
>>
>>3401165
I didn't know smashing walls to uncover keys required any intelligence.
>>
>>3401162
The JP title of the original Castlevania was Devil's Castle Dracula. Vampire Killer was the name they gave to the MSX2 version in Yurop

You're thinking of Castlevania: Bloodlines, which was titled Vampire Killer on the JP Mega Drive.
>>
>>3401192
More than the NES game at least, which doesn't even have an explorative aspect.
>>
>>3401206
>"exploration" means the game requires skill and intelligence

You are a moron. Next you'll say that SotN requires more skill because it's a metroidvania.

Fucking idiot.
>>
>>3400993
What is there to like about it? LOOK AT IT.

You can only boast if you beat it without looking up information.
>>
>>3401330
I've played it. The only real complaint is choppy animation. Everything else about the game is decent. Music especially is better than NES.
>>
i don't even know if i should report this post desu
>>
>>3401330
I doubt you've actually played it.

>Why were the Castlevania games for Nintendo systems so awful?

They weren't. This is complete bullshit.

>>3400980
The horror

If you're over 18 I feel bad for you, if you're not quit violating the rules
>>
>>3402329
Oh, you're one of those casuals. I bet you beat every Castlevania game using savestates and video walkthroughs.

>>
>>3402625
You forgot to tell me about how I only emulated the games so I didn't experience them properly, how I used passwords or whatever to get to the end of the game, and about how I'll never be half as good at gayman as you. Or whatever you need to tell yourself to make you validate your life choices to a stranger on the internet.

I feel bad for you, regardless of if you're over or 18 not now.
>>
>people will never just each castlevania on its own merits and instead feel the need to turn it into hardware wars and shit on every game in the series that isn't their favorite

You all make me sad.

Nintendo Castlevanias were not awful except for those slimy turds on the N64, but that's normal for that console. Just because the series got better later, doesn't mean it started from shit. Nice bait, nigger.

AAAAASSSSSSSSSS! Hi, Australia-kun.
>>
>>3402974

Nah, australia wouldn't dare to defend any Nintendo-related game or console.
>>
>>3402981
Pretty sure Australia-kun likes the N64 Goemon games.
>>
>>3402991

That's easy modo, everyone loves these.

Go play some Amigavania, you'll feel better.
>>
>>3402995
Would've been epic if he found a way to shit on those games with his twisted logic, though.
>>
>>3403029

The tiny goemon fan community doesn't deserve that, they're nice fellas. CV fanbase was always kind of hysteric, A-K is just like a extreme parody of it.
