So I just learned of this today, but apparently Castlevania: Dracula X for the Super Nintendo will soon be released for the Wii U's Virtual Console! I believe the scheduled release date is Oct. 3. I'm looking forward to finally being able to play this one!

Is that meaningfully different than the version included in the Dracula X Chronicles? If it is I'd want to check it out, if not...

[Retro Deckades]

It has several notable differences from Rondo of Blood, which I believe is the version included in Dracula X Chronicles. It's often considered to be the inferior version, but it's different enough for me to want to play through it.

I am excited -- to me it's a brand new, classic-2D Castlevania game!
