I don't really like OoE and my favorite DS Castlevania is Portrait of Ruin. I respect your opinion and ask only that you do the same.

I think you're being intentionally and pointlessly antagonistic, and I shant ever respond to you again. Farewell.

I liked Aria's art style more and the touch screen sealing symbols or whatever in Dawn weren't very good. They're both really fun games though.

i've only played through SOTN. a lot of the time i decide i want an item, spend some time grinding to get it, and then get bored and quit this is making me want to play through super metroid again. it's probably been at least ten years since i've played it, so i could do a pseudo-blind run

Was that even in this thread? there are at least three metroid threads going in this forum alone.

super metroid is as good as i remember so far. i just beat kraid, and i'm working through norfair. it's a little more linear than i remember, but maybe it opens up later in the game?
