    Fun Fact: in Castlevania Chronicles, if you hold down L1 and R1 and select either original or arranged mode, you can then choose up to three different sound chips for the soundtrack to play off of. Which also means that you can play arranged mode with the original mode's soundtrack.

    In regards to arranged mode's tunes...
    Every 100 years, Casltevania rises from the ashes, called to the earth by the ruin & sadness emanating from men's souls... whenever there's a leap year, Funklevania rises from the boomboxes, called to the discos by the raves & fistbumps emanating from men's spandex...

    The load screen tune from Castlevania Chronicles original mode actually came from Castlevania 1. The Famicom Disk System release in Japan allowed saving to three different save files, and featured the same tune.
    As far as I know, Castlevania Chronicles' difficulty was a response to those who sent letters to Konami complaining about how easy Super Castlevania 4 was. Also, as brutally hard as the first playthrough is, each subsequent playthrough increases the difficulty up to and including the seventh playthrough.

    "Why is the game harder for America? Isn't that usually the opposite?"
    I know of two games (Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time and Ninja Gaiden 3) which were BOTH harder for their American versions (though for different reasons, strangely... M&L came out in America first and so the international release got a better balance, whereas Ninja Gaiden 3 was Japanese first and bumped UP the difficulty for localization)... There's also, of course, Castlevania 3!
    But I actually can't think of any time other SMB2 that localization opted for something easier.
    Does FF: Mystic Quest count for this? That's in conception, but it fits the discussion.

    That bridge theme you mentioned is "Don't Wait Until Night" my personal favorite piece of Castlevania music, and was arranged with the song "Heart of Fire" as the theme of Julius Belmont in Aria of Sorrow. Julius is also my favorite Belmont so that might be part of the reason why I love Don't Wait Until Night so much.

    Had to check you out after hearing ExoParadigmGamer and I'm loving the videos, especially your Sonic stuff. Would absolutely love to see you take on Dishonored from 2012. Think you'll love the open-ended and freedom of the game. Keep it coming man.

    Fun Fact: the bridge stage theme, called Don't Wait Until Night, was mixed up with Heart of Fire(Castlevania 1) for the Julius boss fight in Castlevania Aria of Sorrow.

    The bridge theme you were talking about (Don't Wait Until Night) would later be crossed with Heart of Fire for Julius Belmont's theme. Never really understood why they never gave the combined theme a new name, its simply called Heart of Fire.

    Super messed up a reimagining/remaster of *Haunted Castle* is the newest Castlevania title in about a decade thanks to the new DS collection that just dropped.
    Good thing to come back to this review to...well, review what the original was. At the very least it's bundled with 3 other fantastic titles to make its inclusion less painful.
