November 6 (5MVG: Five-Minute Castlevania)
I'm back again. See, this time -- Crowd: Get on with it! Right. Here's an update I was planning for Hallowe'en. (I know that's a week ago now, but Hallowe'en isn't over till the Simpsons say it is.) You guys know I'm a huge Mega Man fan; you may also know I'm into Zelda and Metroid. But I have another favourite game series that hasn't even been touched on this site until now. Here's my fiver of one of the greatest NES games of all: Castlevania!

Okay, never played that game, but the fiver's good. It reminded me of Van Helsing, for some reason.

Funny, though as with most Video Game Fivers, I've never played the source material. More! More! More!

On a tangent, if you've enjoyed the StarTropic fiver, play the game. One of the greatest NES RPGs in my opinion.

I haven't played it, either. Still funny.

There's meat in the walls the same way that there's money inside of grass: the Minish put them there.

You bet! There are lots of Castlevania games I'd like to cover, and unlike with the Mega Man series, I don't feel any particular obligation to go in order. However, like the MM fivers, these will be strictly a diversion -- I have more important stuff for the site that comes first.

Too bad we don't have anyone to five Twilight Princess within a week of release. Won't be me, I don't have the money for a Gamecube, much less a Revolution.

Come on, a whip is a totally awesome weapon.
...Then again, my perception of that might have been somewhat tainted by Castlevania in the first place. Hm. Well, it beats a yo-yo. Nice fiver. Warn me before you're going to pick up any more of my favorite video game series, though, I was staring at the update page for about five minutes with my mouth open.
