Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse (NES) [Alucard Path] 

That was probably the intention of the game designers. I HOPE.

Japanese version was easier. Konami was mad about game renting being popular in North America so they made it harder so people couldn't rent and beat the game fast while renting it. Japanese version of this game and the best version and the one the developers intended people to actually play and beat.

Believe me, my friend had the exact same reaction! He was so dumbfounded, I just kept laughing while watching him play

And that’s why the Netflix series has Trevor nonchalantly assume that Alucard *is* Dracula

I thought that i was playing as Dracula at time and I didn't know that was his Son!

Fun fact: Alucard is Dracula spell backwards

I loved this game back in its day. As I push 45 this summer, I still love this game. In fact, I enjoy all things Castlevania except for how pompous and arrogant they made Simon in Captain N: The Game Master. Which reminds me … who’s bright enough to make a Captain N video game for NES?!?

They are hard to see sometimes. I thought something was a ledge and jumped for it only to fall to my death a couple times as well.

Gage Crawley I beat him without the holy water I just used the vampire killer

@@brandonmyers5448 as a man well should 🤝

Thank (or curse) IGA.

Conrado Javier Alucard is my favorite character in Castlevania. But I like his original form from Curse of Dracula, rather than his current one.

@@gagecrawley6223 his original form is trash, basically a discount Dracula rather than being an unique and well-thought character

@@wallacesousuke1433 but that was the entire point I would think. He is the son of dracula

@@boombox2ikik239 doesnt mean he should be his dad's clone, making him unique is one of the factors for his success

Netflix's version sucks anyway. :p

@@Barbe well that’s your opinion. I don’t get why you say that, but I think it’s great as it’s own adaptation of the series

@@RileyJ3866A very loose adaptation.

Me too

yargh!

"Alucard left his sword and gear behind so Trevor could have the spotlight." What a ridiculous sentence, the things fanboyism & bias do. By the way, don't forget Alucard FOUGHT Trevor and LOST, and, in his own words, "was surprised by it", as in, he didn't expect to lose. He didn't "leave behind" anything or wish others to "have the spotlight" (LOL). It only _proved_ AND illustrated the fact Belmonts > Alucard (as long as neither is controlled).

@@RedHairdo I think Alucard was holding back or something

@@RedHairdo Oh, and your fanboy tripe is any better? Go stick to Netflix and Lords of Shadow.

@@RedHairdo he was holding back, he just wanted to test Trevor for the sake of joining him

The Dracula that is fought in Symphony of the Night is just resurrect a while ago so Alucard could take him a bit easier. Not to discredit Alucard but if he could take Dracula by himself he does not even need any assistances from Trevor at all. Through the entire series, while Alucard usually remains his lone wolf personality, he will never hesitate to unite with fellow vampire hunters to ensure success on defeating Evil.

if you want to start a new game with ALucard enter your name as okuda

You got his name wrong.

thats awesome! links?

did he do it on his grant path? generally i end up taking grant down the path that leads through the sunken ship because his bonus areas

oh, okay, thanks a bunch

alucard is actually the best character for defence. people notice hes not as strong as trevor but dont notice he can stay out of range of things trevor cant while still attacking. all the other characters need to use hearts for long range attacks. then theres his invincibility frames when transforming to and from the bat form and the bat form itself, which lets him avoid danger

Well, it's very long-range and wide-reaching for no cost, and his real strength is being able to totally skip difficult platforming sections. But yeah it's pretty rough. I much prefer how they handled Gebel (his stand-in) in Bloodstained

He's good for hitting slightly above and below him, too, making Medusa heads less painful and less of a problem.

He uses his mothers family name, she was Elizabeth Farenheit. Tepes is actually a nickname, "the impaler". Count Vlad's last name was Basarab.

Given the fact that Rudolf Hess was one of the Frankenstein monsters of Hitler I'd say the comparison is fair.

You uneducated brook . That's called a backdash .

Alucard uses the stopwatch that stops time . 😂

The show was written by a guy who didn’t know what Castlevania was. He only did a bit of research. So it’s a very loose adaption.

He plays how I play sotn. Hellfire spam.

you want so much for a nes game. and to defend game's honor... all character has a specific weapon and unique habilities... and Alucard as Dracula's son... its very common they decided to copy the principal Dracula movie... the fireball.

Fireballs > weapons .

no he is old in sotn

i meant they preffered that design

@@_Tzer ah i see yeah you are correct

@@doctorpetrovich9296 He is only 2 centuries older. For an immortal that's young.

aha

He can completely skip platforming sections and attack from long range without using hearts.

Yeah…I never liked using him except to transform into bat mode…really awkward to use. 😬

This is before he got redesigned.
