To save a click ๐Ÿ˜

Castlevania: Dominus Collection brings together a trilogy of highly regarded Nintendo DS games for the first time on home consoles. Previously DS exclusive games, the collection contains Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin and Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. All three are fantastic, varied experiences with some absolutely beautiful pixel art, along with each of them having unique elements that set them apart from other games in the series.

As an added bonus, the Castlevania: Dominus Collection also contains 1987 title, Haunted Castle, which brought the Castlevania series to arcades for the first time, in a newly updated edition: Haunted Castle Revisited.

The price is reasonable

I was going to "say $60 for re-releases of several older DS games doesn't seem that amazing", but then I realized that I was looking at the price for the bundle below it, which apparently includes all of:

The games in this bundle:

  • Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
  • Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin
  • Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
  • Haunted Castle Revisited
  • Haunted Castle

Plus:

  • Castlevania: Circle of the Moon

  • Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance

  • Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

  • Castlevania: Dracula X

  • Castlevania

  • Castlevania II Simon's Quest

  • Castlevania III Dracula's Curse

  • Super Castlevania IV

  • Castlevania The Adventure

  • Castlevania II Belmont's Revenge

  • Castlevania Bloodlines

  • Kid Dracula

That's...actually pretty darn good too, if you enjoy Metroidvanias.

I do kind of wish that they'd figured out some sort of way to do higher-resolution graphics, but the games themselves ain't bad.

How does the Glyph/Sigil drawing mechanic (DS touchscreen) work now?
