Wherein Matt gains a new fandom
So I finally found out that Castlevania III is available on the Virtual Console, so I shelled out a few bucks to get it. I got the cartridge off eBay years and years ago, you see, along with the first two games, but it turned out, the cartridge was defunct and I was pretty much gypped out of it. Until now.

Aaaaand now I think I've officially been upgraded to Castlevania fan.

Well, I got into it a little bit back when I first started playing the first two games, but I never really bothered to delve into the series's plot and characters back then.

Now I'm really itching to try out the Metroidvania-type games later in the series. I'm currently trying to work out how to get my hands on a copy of Symphony of the Night; preferably the PSP port. I mean, hey, CV3 is pretty cool, but the gameplay style of the later games looks downright awesome, and hell yeah I want a piece of that.

In the mean time, I'll just be over here getting the crap beaten out of me by gargoyles and wondering if I should have taken Grant instead of Sypha. Sigh.

Unrelated: Hahaha I want this so bad.

Yyyyup.

My little brother freaked out about it.

And then I took it with me to school.

...wait a minute

Discs one and two are black label, but disc three looks like a Greatest Hits disc.

I have no idea how badly that would affect its value, but... O_o;;

That's what I get for getting it used, I guess.

...I think it was used. I got it a long time ago, and I think it was a christmas or birthday gift.

...you know what's weird? I just checked my copy of FFIX, and... the case is from the Greatest Hits version, but the discs are black label.

Too bad there's that minor issue with the game freezing during the Bahamut/Alexander fight scene. orz
