this was one of those old games that if you died on certain places and lose the power ups you might as well restart the game as it was pointless trying to continue. There were 2 or 3 secret rooms that helped a lot but even with those the game required an almost a perfect run

As I was around 9 -11 when my father showed and gave me access to his old Game Boy games, this one among them, aaand I couldn't beat stage 1. Now I'm 20 and revisiting those Game Boy games, aaand I still die at the stage 1 boss... Till I found that Game Genie in his former (now my) collection. And I still got frustrated on that auto scroll section in Stage 3.

The Mega Man games were some of the easiest good games on the NES. Way easier than Mario, Castlevania, Contra or whatever else have you.

For a gameboy game, it had a great soundtrack.

I realize it is kind of off topic but do anyone know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?

So proud this was a part of my childhood. The games 1st level theme "Battle Of The Holy" is still to me one of the most epic video game songs of all-time.

Got that game when I was 10 or 11 as one of the first games for my Gameboy. It was very hard for me and took me weeks of training to beat it. Two years ago (I'm over 40 now) I found it at the attic together with my Gameboy and some other gems and I gave it a try. I beat that thing at the very first try! My brain still remembered all the timings, the hidden rooms and even the complicated jumps at lvl 3. Unbelievable after about 30 years.

Some secrets you missed. At 2:20 (keep climbing up the rope) 8:35 (grab the cross in the previous room, go down left, get on the middle stair, duck and strike the eyeball while its inside your character to reveal a hidden path downward)

I remember beating the game two or three times as a kid.... i must've been some superhuman back then...

This was the only castlevania i played when i was a child , damn , it brings alot of memories and cant believe it still looks cool after all these years, I always wanted to grow up and be like simon belmont and hunt vampires but I became a radiologist😄

I love this game, stage 3 and 4 has epic BGM. Plus the music in 3 makes you feel like a badass when you pull off all the jumps.

great job. remember playing this game back in 1990, originally wanted TMNT fall of the footclan, but Sears didn't have it..

The OutroMusic is so Beautiful. Amazing.

Slowdownvania - The Painventure Seriously, what the fuck happened to this game when they released it ? The game is rather cool, splendid soundtrack and sound effects, some good ideas (whip fireballs), long levels, even if there's only four of them and it's overall quite easy, but the gameplay ??? Why SO MANY slowdowns everywhere ? Some levels like the third one are HELL ON EARTH because of these slowdowns. I have absolutely no problem to beat this one without dying from enemies, but the character responses and slowdows makes everything awful at a point you just don't wanna continue. I died so many times on falling platforms in level 3 because Christopher (the protagonist) was simply not responding to my commands, jumping without going forward and such... This is absolutely unforgivable for a game like Castlevania. Such disappointing gameplay-wise, because everything else is quite nice.

Perfect playthrough. I remember this game well, it may have been tough but I enjoyed it and Belmont's awkward jumping made it feel more realistic to me. Level 3's level design is sadistic from start to finish, but it's also the most exciting level. A true classic in my book.

@Int3x0r

Same. I got it when it first came out. After a while I managed to finish it. Even without dying once. A month ago I discovered my original GameBoy from 1988 with this game still in it. Now I get to act 2 and that's it. The patience we had as youngster back then... But yeah. We didn't have many games to chose from. So we kept on going and dying till we finished it.

I'm not a Castlevania fan, but I have heard about the series. I recently discovered this game as well as it's sequel, Belmont's Revenge. And I have to say the music is extremely catchy. I heard that it was composed by Hideheiro Funauchi. He's such a legend at music composition.

Thanks, you're an expert player. I can remember the frustration because the character would move so slow. Never been able to beat the game. It seems I still got to the last level =)

I love it. We played that many, many hours as i was young. There are a lot of very hard jumps and you die if you miss one.

I remember playing this when I was young. I didn't know any better.

That's why they had to make it the most awesome piece of music in the game. As it was, I chucked my game boy across the room more times than I can remember on this stage.

Fantastic playthrough just Fantastic

The rolling eye balls used to always scare me the most about this game.

Just got this game yesterday. So far it's a challenging one!

12:17 I’ve been playing this part on my original ‘92 game boy that I restored and I cannot beat it!!! I’ve been playing this part for like 30 minutes over and over !

I finally found it. A game from my childhood, i can't remember it. But i finally found it, my soul will be much calmer now.

I could never beat the 4th level, seeing this video really galls me in some ways because it seems that I was something like 90-95% completed with the game before my Game Boy was stolen. I eventually got a replacement Game Boy, but never saw the game at an affordable price and I liked Final Fantasy Legend I-III more than platformers. The video makes it look easy, but the 4th level is FAR, FAR worse than the third. It is difficult if you lose the fireballs, and pretty much impossible if you lose the chain whip and have only the shorter standard whip.

I remember playing this when I was probably 3 or 4 on our old Gameboy. I never made it past level 1. Same thing happened playing Ren & Stimpy on Game Gear. Lol

It took us a month before we had finished this game. Way back 2000. And another month to finish it again hahahaha

I looooved the music in this game. I wonder if anyone has remade any of it.?

This is my Mona Lisa, first game i had on my Game Boy:)

This was my very first cartridge, and I do not have regrets about my childhood. Collecting money for Duracell batteries waiting for a friend that comes from the USA with a new videogame, now we have everything and there is less happiness.

HOLY!! I was already half way through the game when I gave up near the end of the rope level? I gotta get back to this!

I found this 10 year ago but not since. Where is theemulator and rom to play this?

Thank you so much for this video! Loved the game and music, but never got past stage 3. Had a jumping sequence where the platforms would fall down and I never managed to get it right. Still a great game though I do prefer Castlevania 2 : Belmonts Revenge on GB, which is the game that got me into Castlevania 😀

So which game you think is worse, this or Lords of Shadow?

I always loved this game, took me a long time to beat the final boss, though.

I played my Game Gear more than anything. I do remember playing the fire out of Castlevania for Gameboy though.

I still av this game and 30 other games

The best part of it is that it has almost the same harmonic structure as the Vampire Killer theme. Circle of the Moon would do this again -- using the Vampire Killer theme in a late game area that's frustrating as hell. Though nevertheless still not as frustrating as this one.

i have this game until now👏👏👏

Game Boy Games work on Nintendo Switch right?

The Castlevania bundle on steam has the gameboy games you can play with a controller. It is the greatest deal on steam all the best Castlevania games even SNES.

I remember I had this game on Game Boy when I was a child but I forgot the name. I had to find one of those 100 Game Boy games videos just to find out the name of this is Castlevania.

Como me gustan jugar a los videojuegos de castlevania, me encantan la música instrumental también todas las músicas instrumentales y también los gráficos, la neta en el playstore yo descargué y lo instalé un videojuego de castlevania en mi celular android y todavía lo juego.

Wow, never got to level 4 but I'm glad I didn't. Had enough trouble with the jumping in this game, I would have never been able to get through that stage.

oooooooh my favorite

What a great game I wish they had made some remakes of the 2 games of Castlevania of the gameboy for the 3DS as well as they did with Metroid 2, but it is a lot to ask Konami to do that.
