I have a feeling this might be digital only though. Hope there's a retail version.



No kidding. It's really annoying.
Heh
I dunno but at this situation it'll be smarter to release it on non-Switch consoles too because that way, those who don't have Switch can get this. What the hell is Namco Bandai thinking releasing this at the same day as Smash because majority of the Switch fanbase will be focused on Smash.

The one included in DXC was very poorly scaled with crap blurry filtering, and not perfectly emulated, had sound issues. Might just be the presentation there being poor, but it did visually suck on the PSP.
I see. Yeah we definitely don't want a repeat of that. I'm also concerned with frame lag, as that seemed to be a problem on the Mega Man X Anniversary Collections.

I hope they have M2 working on this thing, though they probably have their hands full with Sega Ages.

Fuck me the port begging in this thread is ridiculous. PS4 version for me if the price is sensible.
Oh please, these are classics that might as well be considered part of the public domain by now; there's nothing to be gained by stanning for exclusivity here.

I do think this place would benefit from changes in how "port begging" (such an immature and loaded term, btw) is moderated; the old place allowed new threads in favor of games being ported, which resulted in Grief's massively successful Sega PC port campaign. There's no reason standalone threads for such purposes shouldn't be allowed here, as long as they have some actual effort put into them.

I'm preparing for a massive disappointment. This IS Konami we're talking about. Silent Hill remastered? Original Zone of Enders remasters anyone?

This will probably be a straight emulation with no filters or anything, akin to Xbox Live version of SOTN.

Keep your expectations in check until we know who is doing this release and what is their scope.

Do you need to justify that I'm port begging? I'd love to get Katamari for Switch but Smash is the priority. It might help sales if it wasn't together with Smash and released a bit further along, making it multiplat might help I guess if it was to compete against Smash (well it's on PC but that's good already).

Anyway thanks for being classy. Onto my ignore list.

You could just not whine about port begging in a thread that has pretty much no news or details. Port begging is an issue when there's actually something to be discussed. There's nothing really to discuss yet until the official announcement, so stop being so precious about your threads maybe?

Reserving my hype for when reviews come out and assure us that the ports aren't shit. Knowing Konami they will fuck this up by doing Unity ports that run at half framerate or something.

Also it'd be cool to see GBA ports on here, but I'm not holding my breath.

It's be nice to have a definitive collection that had every title and done well, but that's not the Konami way in 2018.

We could only be so lucky to get a straight emulation, done well, with no filters. But since this is Konami, I fully expect some non-defeatable awful Super2XSal filter or something.

TBH, I think that's more or less fine with games like SOTN. It doesn't need much to get into decent shape, it has less room for them to screw things up.

Thank you for pointing out I'm port begging guys. Seriously. I'm wrong and you guys are right.

Anyway I think I'll leave the community for now, not so happy with how I made myself a fool.

Megaton if OG Rondo, theycantkeepgettingawaywithit.gif if Dracula X PSP remake Rondo.

I expect the worst and hope for the best with this. Assuming all the planets align, this will be a fantastic and long-overdue way for everyone to enjoy the choicest of Classicvania (hell arguably the series as a whole).

Ok that's fine and dandy but I need Casutlevania Bloodlines to be brought back from cartridge hell! That's still the only 2D console CV game who's never been ported anywhere else and Iran only legally available in a FMAB Génesis not cart! SotN on the other hand could already be played on PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP, Vita, X360, and XB1. I welcome it on PS4 but cmon!

Port begging is useless since those games will release on everything anyway.

Though now that I think of it SotN never released on a Nintendo platform... It's FF7 all over again

There are a lot of good ways to solve the current situation, this unfortunately isn't one of them.

So I'll take it back what I said about Katamari and what I said here.

Anyway a big S O R R Y to those from what I've said and tried to prove that I'm also a console warrior or something.

So I'll take it back here and say "it's ok to port beg".

Well...

This exactly. With FFVII (and IX, X, XII...) coming to Nintendo hardware for the first time i think it's ok for us Nintendo fans to be hyped and ask for a collection that includes Symphony of the Night

I think it's time already.

We've got cases where a game was rated for a single platform and it ended up on other platforms as well. I think it's best to wait for the official announcement.

Tbh, I think this will end up in all platforms but there are chances it will release on PS4 first and everywhere else in the future.

Oof.

Let's move on from this port begging bullshit. As of right now, the collection and the platforms haven't been officially announced.

I will wait for full details because I'm interested but this is competing with games like Hollow Knight that I still haven't played.

It would be funny that Nintendo puts the characters in smash and then the games stay on Sony machines...I sincerely doubt that....otherwise it will be bad a business decision of Nintendo.

New threads would be preferable to shitting up dozens of other threads. I don't care whether a game comes to switch or not it's just annoying having to scroll past loads of similar comments in pretty much every thread where switch isn't explicitly listed as a platform.

I'm about to be super disappointed if the rumors I've been hearing all this time of a Castlevania Collection are true and it's only Rondo and Symphony.

Rondo and Symphony are great and all, but I want the NES, SNES, and Genesis Castlevania games too.

Given the title I feel like Konami is following Capcom's lead and doing 2 collections; one for Ricter and one for Simon.

Nice of you to ignore me listing out the PS4 port-begging. It seems less that you have a problem with port-begging, and more that you have a problem with Switch port-begging. Do you know what's even more irritating? When people like you target a specific platform/fanbase for a general problem.

We need a special legislation for Switch port begging asap if we want to preserve the community.
port begging of what? the game hasn't been announced, and it's obviously coming to switch as well. unless yall want a repeat f the crystal chronicles thread where you get to feel smug for 3 minutes and the look dumb when it gets announced for switch too?
and it seems like mods are ok with it when ps4 players port beg for games that have actually been announced to not come to their system . or is port begging only bad when it's for switch?
