They ask: who are you? and Get out

French Doll voice clips in Castlevania Chronicles on the Sharp X68000: When it notices Simon Belmont: 「お前は誰！？」 [Omae wa dare!?] - _"Who are you!?"_ 「帰りなさい！」 [Kaerinasai!] - _"Get out!"/"Go home!"_ When attacked by Simon Belmont: 「止めて！」 [Yamete!] - _"Stop!"_ When defeated: 「いや！」 [Iya!] - _"No!"_

@@mypkamax Thank you, I've been wondering what they were saying for the longest time now.

I feel like talking mobs are terribly underrated.

@@mypkamax *Belmondo.

Have you heard of Super Castlevania IV on SNES?

@Just Another Account I see no difference other than different words

FINALLY, A REMAKE OF THE FIRST CASTLEVANIA GAME FOR THE NES!*

Playing this game on the X68000 system means it uses MIDI data through the sound module directly resulting in high quality audio, while the PS version is a low bitrate compressed mp3 recording.

@@GyromiteROB why?? midi is inferior to playstation-capable audio....the playstation version was just a higher-quality remake with real cd audio and instruments....

@@wellofcire are you stupid? he's talking about the original mode not the arranged one the original mode uses recordings of the midi versions from the original version

@@joaonitro5149 are you brilliant

This was revolutionary at the time! 😧

....for $3000

I never even tried to kill it, just ran up the stairs and jumped over him lol

X68000 Mt-32 has my fav version of Wicked Child, in general one of the best OST in all Castlevania games.

Damn you're right

The ultimate Castlevania game would be a mix of Super CV4 and CV for the Sharp X68000. That would be amazing.

@@toyvania Indeed

This game also has better visuals, though Super still has a stronger atmosphere and soundtrack, and I also like the fact that we follow Simon on his way to the Castle

I like SC IV, but x68000, especially Mt-32 has one of the best soundtracks and visuals are more crisp, with better colours.

because they speak Japanese and Konami didn't want people to hear Japanese, but they were also too lazy to record English

Back then for some reason Konami and other companies thought it would negatively affect us if they left any remnants of Japanese in their games, excepting the credits and bad english. I think the voice and Japanese language in general is lovely sounding. Glad that era ended.

Nah, the PS1 port has both this and the arranged version, which is supposedly easier, but I honestly can't see many differences.

@vospominanie Arranged is easier by default, but you can actually adjust the difficulty for Arranged in Options, whereas Original is set in stone.

@vospominanie Damage is lower for sure. Probably less enemies as well. I didn't care to check all of the changes because I went to Options and put Arranged to Hard, which makes it roughly the same as the original.

Sadder Than You, No, this version is said to be even harder than the Original Mode on CV Chronicles.

It may have been recorded in AVI format, which has a bad tendency to desync.

Stephen P Vampire Killer wasn't that hard.

Sam ZXW I have not played Vampire Killer (MSX). So I don't know what you're talking about. The Japanese version of 'Bloodlines' (MD / Genesis) is called Vampire Killer as well.

I know, the European version is called Vampire's Kiss (lmao). About Vampire Killer, it's a more exploration-focused port of the first Castlevania, with shields, boots and sub weapons that replace the whip. My top 3 hardest classic games are Haunted Castle, this and Dracula X or Dracula's Curse.

Sam ZXW Are you serious? Dracula X for the SNES? I found that to be easier than Rondo of Blood. I even beat the game 3 times without dying and I never allowed the game to punish me to get the bad ending. The enemies are a lot slower now, but you have some nasty placements, so they're basically blocking your path, which gets kinda annoying. It never had a boss-a-thon of any kind and the hardest stage was 6. Also, due to not liking 'Bloodlines' much, I never found out if Dracula X is easier or harder than that game. What is your opinion?

Stephen P It really depends. I found Dracula X difficult because of the ridiculous amount of botomless pits and spikes. Bloodlines is more difficult in terms of action tho

It is called Load BGM

First of all the zx and c64 were 8 bit. The 16 bit amiga had the same processor as the x68000 but what the amiga missed was FUCKING GREAT JAPANESE PROGRAMMERS. THE X68000 IS AMAZING AND THE AMIGA WAS CRAP. ONLY MARBLE MADNESS, DEFENDER OF THE CROWN AND ARKANOID WERE GREAT. THE X68000 KICKS ASSSSSS

You're absolutely correct with no denial. I'm just listing all the home computers that rivaled each other during the time. But we all know which one was the best of the best.

DJDanceClassic Amiga had the same processor, but so did Sega Genesis/Mega Drive and lots of other 16-bit devices, including most arcade machines and the Neo-Geo. Motorola 68000 was a truly prolific CPU. That's only one part of the overall picture though. The custom graphics architecture on the X68000 was significantly superior to Amiga, ST, Mega Drive, SNES and maybe even the Neo-Geo . It also cost significantly more.

It's the load music for the 68000, as this system actually loaded the entire game in one shot, which erased load times. Konomi really did their homework on this one.

well of course they are

😂😂😂NES vs X68K. Worms vs lions

@@TheLemminkainen Exactly lol. The 68k is arcade-tier hardware.

Samurai Snake That song is called LOAD BGM, and it's what plays when the game. . . loads

@@Don_Porculio That's cool. You can listen to a jam while you wait for castlevania to work!

If you can emulate the X68000, go for it, or you can just emulate both of them, and enjoy both versions.

Both real hardware and software themselves are pretty much impossible to get nowadays

No. Without sound module.

+Vampirerockstar The x68000 uses a YM2151 FM chip and an OKI MSM6258 ADPCM chip for sound.

Its the main chip, but you can install and use a lot more options

FM sound from yamaha, all sounds like a DX7 :)

The YM2612 sound chip used in the Sega Genesis is a cheapened down version of the YM2151 used in the X68000. Quite a few games by Koei and Wolf team were released on the X68000 and the Genesis, listen to the slight differences in quality. I like to cite the game Arcus Odyssey as a way to compare the differences between the 2 sound chips.

I think Valis used XM6, from the menu that popped up a bit after 13:13. This will play on Libretro's PX68K core also, but PX68K doesn't currently support save states.

+Scissorman There isn't an Amiga version of this...

+whisper2053 About this particular version though...yeah. Although there's just two versions as far as I know so there's that.

Oh no the flashbacks dracula's 2nd form the controlls the enemy design

I believe the general idea is grotesque necromancy.

Remember in the animated series when Alucard had said to Trevor that he was glad that "he hadn't eaten" Trevor? Yeah, I guess that they also eat humans after they drink their blood.

@@EternalRoman Thanks for explaining the context._.

No. This game was too advanced for the 16 bit systems. It's basically an arcade redo of the first Castlevania . This version was used on the Sharp X6000 , the same computer used in designing arcade games.

@@Prime-1111X Not exactly. The Sharp X68000 was a 16 bit computer (named after the Motorola 68000 processor) that had all of the top of the line equipment you could come up with back then. Think of a 16 bit computer with a 8 voice Yamaha sound chip (the YM 2151) and full 16-bit colour. You paid $3000 for this computer when it came out (so think, with inflation, you were paying over $8000 for a computer). That being said, it was used by many Japanese game development houses as a development tool. I know Konami's arcade games were initially done with this computer as a development tool, then they cut down the processor to make it cheaper (using a Motorola 6809 derivative with Konami's custom engineering). Their Arcade games had similar graphics and used the same Yamaha sound chip. Speaking of Sega Genesis, in order to make the Genesis/Mega Drive available to mainstream audiences, they cut down the specs from an X68000 so that people could actually afford to buy it (they didnt cheap out on the processor, but pretty much everything got watered down). Sega also used the X68000 development tools to make their arcade games. If Sharp wanted to make a console out of a X68000 using the same specs (around the same time as Sega and Nintendo came out with their consoles), it probably would have cost twice as much as a Sega Genesis or a Super Nintendo.

@@scottythegreat1 Ain't that the truth

This is from 1993, two years after IV

Some tracks sound much more better with this instrumentation. Tower of Dolls for instance sucks in the other two

If by horrible you mean better, that is

The music is fine, a nice variety of remixes from other games, as well as some original tunes either never used again, or heard in later games in the series. And unlike SCV 4, which is quite easy, this game will leave you a broken mess unless you practice enough, it's bone crushingly hard, especially this release.

Nonsense. Compared to Super Castlevania's hideous shitty music, it's incomparably great.

This game came out for the sharp in the 80s super castlevania had years to make their soundtrack better so

@@junnerapokalypsa2079 nope, this version is 1993.
