Looks like Simon Belmont is in New International Track and Field for DS... and he's 38? Damn!

Nice!

I always liked the red haired Simon. I feel like I'm a minority in that.

I hate the feather boa though. What the hell was Kojima thinking.

Any ideas for a scarification piece btw? I've been looking through nice easy to cut CV sprites and things but I've not found anything so far. There's not so many sprites around these days.

This is one place I know of. It doesnt have the heart refresh graphic, but Serio might rip it for you if you tell him you want to tattoo it.

[HYB]

Thanks Arasoi :D. I appriciate it.

I figure I'm going to go for the CV tattoos later I think, since I have a lot to pay for when I turn 18 and I doubt anyone would be willing to donate money XD (all my commission money goes to the fund btw). I hope I can find something interesting to make a scarification out of. If not oh well I can go for the cherries skin removal.

Oh, and I already got the heart refresh sprite. It's pretty easy to find and I've already saved it to my comp so I don't have to find it later.

This piece of crap is being passed off as a CV game. Lame..

Also, heads up collectors:

Not a common game, and it's in good condition as far as these go.

[HYB]

I wonder why nice things always appear when I'm out of monies. I'd love that commodore game too, and I was eyeing the complete PAL versions of Harmony and Circle too.

[Dreamc@sting]

Wow...is the only response - I only have a handful of castlevania...being the versions on genesis and saturn lol. Your collectiection is more than impressive..my hat is off to you...if I ever seen that in someones room I'd black out

[Arasoi]

Thanks, DC. The Genesis and Saturn titles are great entries in the series. Bloodlines is one of the last great linear platformers in the series, and the Saturn port of NITM has some interesting extras, so I think those are good to have.

I wish I had room in my apartment for all of that stuff, but it lives neatly stored in my closet 90% of the time, or I wouldn't be able to walk around.

[Dreamc@sting]

If I had that collection in my apartment id have a whole room dedicated to it :P

[HYB]

My room is a mess so most of my games are in a shelf, hidden away, and some around my roomin various places. Art books and manga take up a lot of space.

Yeah I have things everywhere, I have so much manga/anime/figures/wallscrolls and other random stuff in my room i had to make my living room the whole game room...eventually i will have a themed kitchen at the rate im going lol

[PallarAndersVisa]

How hard is it to find Legacy of Darkness CIB? I haven't seen it very much, if at all in my ebay browses over the past few months.

[Arasoi]

Not too hard, if you're willing to pay:

I got mine 7-8 years ago in a shop so I haven't looked too hard for it since then, hope that helps.

Oh, and holy CRAP that Commodore 64 CV1 got expensive! Mine is in that condition but I got it off ebay some years ago for $25.00! I saw you bid on it some too pallaranders, bummer about that guy with the huge bid. He at least could have sniped.

[LuxKiller65]

80$ five days before the end... lulz. But I like -you- saying that something Castlevania got expensive, you made my day! Everyone here forgot how much the Amiga one went for and who bought it.

:sob:

A (now) rarer poster to get, the Castlevania Chronicles promo poster.

[HYB]

My favorite poster!

I'm gonna go cry in a corner right now.

[MarioMania]

Arasoi: whats the diffents between the Beta Version of Castlevania: Bloodlines & the Retale one

[Arasoi]

MM: The beta version has some different levels, including a boiler/smelting room and a nazi blimp. I do not have screenshots handy ATM.

[HYB]

A couple may be Yaoi or whatever, I dunno I dont buy these things. A few look interesting.

[LuxKiller65]

Is this a Castlevania thread or an auctions thread?
