The
Previews magazine product description (as presented on retail website BadgerComics.com) for a new manga based on
Castlevania: Curse of Darkness includes a list of the manga's selling points, including planned promotions by Konami and publisher
Tokyopop. According to the list, the manga will be: "Cross-promoted with the 2008 video game releases, which include games for the Nintendo Wii and DS (Fall 2008)." The text reads differently in the preview image (seen above), with specific platform references excised. However, it does still read "2008 video game
releases."
Unless someone at
Previews just made a huge typo, not only
is there a Wii
Castlevania game (as has been
rumored many times), but it's coming out
this year, along with
Order of Ecclesia on the DS. Is it wrong that we kind of hope they're talking about
Rondo of Blood on the Virtual Console instead of another 3D game? An original 2D console
Castlevania is
far too much to expect. We're actually kind of excited about the
Curse of Darkness manga on its own merits! Too much
Castlevania for our poor hearts to take!
