For Castlevania, there are not any options displayed as far as starting a new game or inputing a password: the game simply stays on the title screen for roughly five seconds, proceeds to the graveyard sequence intro, and then plays the demo. The same can be said for Mutant Apocalypse.
I know that both the controller and the controller port work perfectly, as I did not have any problems playing Super Mario World. I tried cleaning Super Castlevania, but that did not help as far as letting me actually play the game. I have searched the internet but have not found anyone else having similar problems; I am really stumped.
