				| 
 |  
				| Let's face it, 90+% of the people using Magic Engine are trying to play Castlevania - The Rondo of Blood. 
 Well, if you have a Nintendo Wii and 900 Wii Points (US$9), you can purchase the full game and play it to your heart's content on your Wii.
 
 It will even appear nicely on an HDTV's 16:9 Widescreen format.

				| Yes, I couldn't believe my eyes when I seen it!  I have purchased it, and they did a really good job porting this over.  |  |

 Not so much a port as emulated.

				| I don't know about anyone else, but I like playing Dracula X on the PSP. The game's graphics have been given a complete overhaul, but the original game is unlockable, as well as Symphony of the Night, and best of all everything is in English. I haven't even touched the PC Engine version since I got the new one. I would highly recommend picking up the PSP version instead of fooling around with the Wii. |  |

				| Is it available stateside now?  Last I checked, Rondo was only on the Japanese side and I couldn't justify picking up a Japanese Wii console for just that game. 
 Besides, there's something cool about having a copy of the original.  Just couldn't pass it up when I saw it at Super Potato.  I probably shouldn't have picked it up, but there it was, a game I had been wanting to play for over 16 years...
 
 Oh, and first post, so hopefully I didn't break any forum rules.
