The folks over at Kikizo managed to snag an interview with Konami's Koji Igarashi and composer Michiru Yamane. Interesting stuff in it, but what's most telling is Igarashi's passion for 2D gaming action. If last year's Dawn of Sorrow is to be taken as evidence, then there is still much love for all things 2D, despite this being a next-gen world. Now if we can only manage to get ourselves a copy of Portrait of Ruin....

Anyway, interesting bits here (for you curious gamer types) include portions where IGA talks about the XBL release of the PS1 classic, Symphony of the Night, and a test Castlevania developed for the PSP. Since Kikizo doesn't want people direct linking to their video file, we'll do you guys a favor and provide you a vid embed of the thing.

I would love the test of Castlevania on the PSP to be more then just a test. I really think it would be neat to play that game on the PSP be it you can buy the game off the PS store and put it on your memroy card or a whole new game built in mind for the PSP. Now that would be cool.

You can play three really *excellent* castlevania titles with gpsp in full speed.



Circle of the Moon

Harmony of Dissonance

Aria of Sorrow



An all new psp title would be even more great though...
