Akumajou Densetsu (Famicom) Playthrough [English] - NintendoComplete

A playthrough of Konami's 1989 action game for the Nintendo Famicom, Akumajou Densetsu (悪魔城伝説). Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse was one of my favorite NES games way back when it debuted in the fall of 1990. But, like I'd imagine was the same for many kids at the time, I had no idea that the American game was a somewhat neutered version of the original Japanese one. In this video I am playing the Japanese game with an English patch applied. If you're interested in trying it out for yourself, you can find the patch at https://www.romhacking.net/translatio... I've already done a video for the US version (   • Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse (NES) Pla...   ), but I thought the Japanese version was worth a look given the differences. Akumajou Densetsu's use of Konami's custom VRC6 chip gives the game's audio a major kick in the pants by providing the system with three additional sound channels (2 square waves, 1 saw). The Japanese version is also the "uncensored" version. The other releases cover up any instances of nudity, though somehow a whole lot of religious iconography still remains intact. In this playthrough of the game I teamed up with Sypha. I thought it was a good match for the story in the Netflix show. _____________ No cheats were used during the recording of this video.
