SOTN port for the Megadrive

[RAZO]

Looks like someone is trying to port SOTN to the Megadrive. I would have preferred Rondo but still kind of cool with the progress being made.

Random: Even The Mega Drive Might Get Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night Before Switch

Why? Seems like a colossal waste of time.

A man can do with his time what he wants… no?

Why? Seems like a colossal waste of time.

Stretching the console's to the limit?

I thought the results were gonna be really, really shitty like Atari Halo or something, but I was actually impressed by how far they've gotten. M68k programming is something I'd like to try someday for fun so I think it's pretty cool, though I always wonder why people put so much effort into fan games that a publisher can cease and desist at any time

I could be making this up, but didn't SotN start as a 32X project?

 

[sylvie]

why the fuck would anyone want this. i'm sure they'll reduce the amount of features, items, transformations, etc.

It was rumoured that Castlevania was coming to the 32x

Would rather see a new, original work.

Cool, I've always wanted to see if I could make a Ferrari using only Ford parts.

Ford did pretty well with the Ford GT.

Like the Mega Drive isn't s Playstation, the Ford also isn't a Ferrari. But it did pretty well even with a few cylinders less.

As a technical problem and a challenge the project is very interesting, and I respect that, but in 2021 it’s not something I’m going to get hyped about.

 

[CORY]

Yeah, looking at his GG Shinobi video, I don't think we'll see this project finished anytime soon.

If you want an interesting Genesis port, check out Cave Story in the meantime.

I can't imagine being able to pull off a soul steal with the crappy D-pad.

 

[max 330 megafartz]

Dorito grease works wonders.

 

[Lastblade]

Looks neat, but I am more interested in the Resident Evil port on Genesis from awhile back.

 

[HornheaDD]

I mean.. cool? But more importantly... why?

 

[neo_mao]

Or how about the 8-bit NES games with updated visuals instead?

 

[Lagduf]

Collectors be crazy, mayne.

 

[Gorka]

It's not meant like a straight port metroidvania, but linear gameplay like the traditional castlevanias featuring Maria or Alucard. In a sense it is something new.

 

[Dr Shroom]

I'd rather have the cancelled game.com port of it.

Call it a different name then?

 

[Spike Spiegel]

Jesus, this sounds terrible. Like, the Saturn version was a step down, what the hell is the mega drive gonna do?

 

[Tarma]

I'd like to see a Mega Drive port of The Last of Us. Fuck Castlevania SOTN.

There is a guy working on a downgrade of resident evil for the mega drive. Bio Evil
