[TAS] MSX Vampire Killer by scrimpeh in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/2444M
TAS originally published on 2013-08-20
As you can see here, the original Castlevania wasn't only on the NES, but also on the MSX computer. Author scrimpeh ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/s... ) did on the MSX Castlevania what Phil ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/Phil ) Côté & Morrison ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/M... ) did on the NES Castlevania ( tasvideos.org/901M ).
This version is different in some important ways. Some new gameplay elements include the requirement to collect a white key in each stage in order to advance, the removal of the chain whip after each boss battle, and the ability to buy subweapons from sitting bystanders in white or red clothes.
This is an improvement of 01:14.90 over the previous run thanks to a few new time-saving tricks.
--------
Note: To play the OMR file, you'll need to have openMSX 0.8.2 / 0.9.0 with the Panasonic FS-A1WSX BIOS installed.

I like the part where the guy whipped the enemy. Also, I liked the part where Konami cared about games.

9:38 - If you thought Wall Chicken was goofy, how about a Wall Merchant?
I love the old school Castlevania games, my favourites of all time. 1 3 & 4 are fantastic. I havent played this version before.

Oh it’s terrible but it’s technically the first modern vania in a weird way
I really like the MSX rendition of this game themes.
great! 素晴らしいplay
Walking the edge of the swamp song on last stage
I've played this game for the first time in 2017, It's hard but I love It!
Awesome 😮👍 The classic Castlevania 😏👉👉
I wish this was available in the US back in the day.
Msx the best versions
Surprised to see this version came after the original Castlevania in Japan. Castlevania made the Stop Watch stop working on bosses after the first few seemingly because it trivialized challenge yet in the MSX version the Hourglass works on Dracula, showing just how easy he becomes.

the stopwatch works on at least the first two bosses tho but yea try it on death or dracula and you're screwed

on the msx version there are no one ups even through score accumulation. you just got 3 lives. if you can make it to dracula on the MSX you deserve to kill him with the hourglass.
Man, even MSX stays it NES like musics

I never played the MSX version 😣
Man, at least the NES Castlevania didn't force you to hunt for keys to get through the doors...

Cause NES's castlevania is a single corridor without different paths, duh.

Some of us like exploring. As nice as the NES version is - It IS A BADASS GAME, mind You - for me the MSX 2 version is better, just because of the maze-like characteristics.
Gotta love the slightly out of tune voices
Hmmmm you can just feel the lack of scrolling with this machine, kind of a game breaker for this kind of gameplay

The MSX 2 standard has smooth scrolling by default. Konami decided not to implement It, doing a maze/exploration kind of gameplay instead. Still, It is a major kickass game if one asks me.
