Some gameplays aren't easily transferrable into 3D.
Unfortunately, 90s won and everything is 3D today.

It did not get terrible reviews. This is a commonly repeated myth that can be disproven by 5 seconds of googling

This, at worst it received mixed to good reviews.
Probably it did received some bad ones, but most of them were mixed to good.

There are more 2D games being made now than at any time in the 90's.

Good one.

I wanted to play CV, not Tomb Raider. Konami didn't get it right until Lament of Innocence, but that's not retro...

most of them are hipster trash with psaudo-retro aesthetics

I thought "well that was interesting, but once they get used to 3D, future games will be better"

Spoiler alert, they were not

Pick one and only one.

Anyway, this game didn't get terrible reviews, but between the console wars and muh castlevania deep storyline the fanboys firmly sided with Symphony of the Night. To the detriment of the series, I feel, because Iga took over and with very few exceptions the games he made were just lame Symphony clones. The team that made 64, which had an awesome survival horror atmosphere that was promptly dropped in lieu of high school level drama, also made Circle of the Moon, which was an awesome mix of classic and metroidvania, which of course got swept aside by some Alucard clone collecting furniture.

I like both CV64 and Lament of innocence, but both of those games have flaws, and both of those games received mixed reviews, but certainly not bad reviews.

That's some next level bait.

>Circle of the Moon, which was an awesome mix of classic and metroidvania
it had a whip and it was more difficult, it still had most of SotN's weaknesses and almost none of its strengths

But is true! It's true!
