torifae Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Anyone gotten this game yet? I just wanna know how good is it because I'm planning to get it tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 From what I've read, it just so happens to be a great game, the best one released in a while (since some of the recent Castlevania games were lacklustre). Get it! I hope I can get it soon. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandmanccl Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 My manager at GameStop told me I have to get it under threats of getting fired. (He was joking, of course.) Apparently, it's the best DS one so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I got it and I almost beat it. Decent game... just don't expect Shanoa to have a great personality or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanz Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I am enjoying it so far. Seems a tad more difficult than the recent entries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I've been playing it, and while I definitely like most of the environments and how they progress, many of the bosses are stupidly hard, and unless you grind or bring out some of the expensive potions (which don't really help), expect to find yourself dying throughout the game, especially towards the beginning. It's really just more of the same that we've been playing since the PlayStation era. There's nothing especially redeeming, but it's still welcome, considering Metroid might as well be a dead series (in other words long live Metroidvania :P ).

Hanz Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 On that note, I think I have spent more time grinding than actually progressing so far. It is still early in the game however... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 (edited) Besides blackmore, I didn't find the bosses that hard. That water boss took me a long time cause I did it with that Lightning glyph though. I'm basically rushing towards the end since I've been ignoring most enemies >_> Edited October 25, 2008 by Boo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torifae Posted October 25, 2008 Author Share Posted October 25, 2008 Get it! I hope I can get it soon. :( Why's that? Isn't it out yet from where you live? And wow, you guys have a lot to say about this game. Make's me want to get it ASAP. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Rabbit Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Related: It's almost scary. :D *serious* I'll consider this game if I'm bored and have free time. But right now I'm strapped for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 On the first day this game came out, it was already sold out from where I live. I have to get the copy of the game no other than tomorrow. <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Why's that? Isn't it out yet from where you live? It doesn't even come "out" here. I'd have to wait for people to smuggle it, and chances are pretty low seeing as how every gamer here is a graphics-whore and all they play are racing, sports and ugly FPS'. I'm an exception, of course. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metal Rabbit Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 No, he lives in Iran. Night, can't you import? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I'd have to wait for others to import/smuggle from places like Dubai and Singapore. And then buy it from them. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's hardly a chance of "legally" getting it in the first place, this is no worse a solution. Hell, if morality is really bugging you, just buy random things from Nintendo to make you feel better. It's not like they're directly making money from that region anyways :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Spoon Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I'd have to wait for others to import/smuggle from places like Dubai and Singapore. And then buy it from them. :/ You've obiously got the Internet. Are ROMs monitered well in Iran? They're not in America...or anywhere else, I believe. Though I could be wrong.

Nightmare Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I'm not stupid, I know there's always ROMs and stuff and I know where to get them. I just want all my Castlevania games to be the real thing (since I'm a huge fanatic), if possible. And it certainly is possible, just not probable.

Same here, I rather play the game for real then to download roms. Not a big fan of roms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I'm a huge pirate actually, and a pro-ROM person. Just that, I don't really feel like emulating DS games. Kinda lose their touch, you know what I mean? The same can be said for every other system, but DS is different, to me at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Wouldn't it be easier if you just order the game off of a local online auction site just to save you the trouble? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Impossible over here. But get back to talking about OoE! This isn't a topic about me! D:< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 As long as you realize that Flashcarts don't emulate the game, but rather, boots the ROM on your DS itself. And homebrew--books, movies, music, and homebrew itself. As for the thread, I just finished the crap thing past the prison. Which sucked. Ended up wasting all my potions, as I couldn't grapple at the last rush, and had to run up each floor manually. Axes helped the most, as I could get off tons of hits. I ended up crouching in the bottom-left corner in each part of the battle: this allowed med to remain relatively safe, other than a stray hit once in a while.
