Castlevania Leads DS Charge

Posted by Zonk on from the whip-it-good dept.

GameDailyBiz reports that as the Holiday season moves on Castlevania is driving DS sales to new heights. From the article: "I think what makes the games so amazing is their simplicity. The little enhancements go a long way (for example the on-screen map which is something that fans of the series have been longing for). The development team does an amazing job at taking traditional gaming elements and discovering ways to evolve them with each different version. With the DS, we were able to deliver a familiar style of gameplay with incredible graphics, sound, and for the first time interactivity thanks to the touch screen ... We can't just make the same game over and over again." Dawn of Sorrow is a dang good game.

    The GBA cartridge slot is also being used a hardware expansion slot for DS games. Metroid Pinball comes with a GBA cartridge rumble pack.
