:shock: :shock: :shock:

3 of the best metroidvania games ever. Amazing gameplay and art design. All 3 worth playing today and they normally go for silly money on eBay.

They should have been included in the Anniversary Collection.

Nice, never played any of the GBA games so this will be a good way to catch up!

Would be all over this. Remember playing Circle of the Moon on my unbacklit GBA.

I only played the DS one (Dawn of Sorrow), never completed it though. Loved playing through Bloodstained Ritual of the Night last year which is basically Castlevania in all but name isn’t it? I’d probably be tempted by this but as always it’d depend what else is out around the same time, definitely something to keep an eye on though.

I remember my brother getting really upset because I completed his copy of Harmony of Dissonance before him. I'm all over an Advanced collection as I'm sure HoD was the first ever Castlevania I played. Dawn of Sorrow was also really good but I can barely remember either of them now.

In theory, great. I've never played a Castlevania (Mirror of Fate on 3DS doesn't count) so this'll be a great way for me to catch up. In practice though... Well, everyone's raving about Metroid Fusion elsewhere, but when I played it on Wii U I bounced off it because it felt old and uncompromising. If these are straight ports I imagine I might do the same.

Aria of Sorrow is ace, but Dawn is better even with the touch screen bits.

Rondo of Blood had more right to be on that collection but they withheld it for that PS4 double back version with SotN.

I’ve only finished Circle of the Moon so this is pretty cool package.
