To me Super Castlevania IV is no better than Rondo of Blood, but I have to admit that it has something quite special about it. Whether it's the music, the atmosphere, the fact that it's a remake of the first game, the last "Simon Belmont game" and or that it realy knows how to take the time to pay homage to itself... I think it's easy to say that this is a "different" game. You know what I mean.
