It's popular. Free money.

Or an enhanced port like Diablo 2 where they only enhanced the graphics and nothing else.

Changing it from 2D would screw it up.

There's literally no reason to remake it. The 2D graphics are perfect and the music is already awesome.

Bloodstained Ritual Of The Night is like a spiritual remake of sorts.

Personally I think its a better game in almost every single way.

Eh if you want to talk about visuals/aesthetic thats subjective.

Mechanically its better in every way and I dont really think thats up for debate.

It's literally the same guy who made both games except he made Bloodstained after getting like 20 years more experience it's obviously a better game

That was a fun one. At its peak. Noy really all that fun without online players.

TBH I question if companies want to bother remastering/remaking popular games. And when they do, I question some of their decisions when coming up with what to port/remaster. Zelda G&W comes to mind when it had Zelda 1/2 and Links Awakening, but not Link to the Past, Minish Cap or either of the Oracle games. Or why some companies choose to port the IOS version rather than the original version, ergo Final Fantasy prior to the Pixel Remakes.

They should come out with a second compilation of Castlevania games. Symphony of the Night, the GBA/DS games, and maybe the first N64 game albeit remastered to fix all the glitches in the game.

I hate Konami. One day I hope I fall asleep and wake up to pachinko being illegal there and Konami crumbling.

They somewhat recently passed a new wave of increased pachinko regulations and the writing on the wall is that it may not be profitable much longer.

also I'll never forgive the rerelease they did where they changed the voice acting. That was such a crime! Replace Alucard's voice with Sasuke fucking Uchiha

Their data is funky. They don't think it will sell.

.... Iirc, the last big Castlevania game sold quite a lot. Hell, Bloodstained sold a lot.

I think it was on other platforms but then they shut it down because nobody wanted to play... it only to resurrect it a few years later for Apple under some sort of exclusivity deal.

That has nothing to do with anything. A ton of remakes get their original version ported before the remake is made.
