And can't get enuff. For the last month or so, every time we go down to the game room, she demands I turn it on and coin it up. She is getting pretty good at it too. Her timing on jumping the demon dogs is impressive. She is also learning what things can and should be whipped for points, life and prizes. That makes me happy. Any other fans of this fine Vs. Title?
 
It is my favorite of the Vs. titles. The only other one I play is Pinball, though I wouldn't turn down a Dr. Mario if it were offered to me...

Ironically, vs. Pinball is the other game in my red tent at the moment. My 1 year old boy loves that one.
 
Haven't had the chance to play one yet...

But i do love that my youger cousins can't get enough SMB, tetris, wrecking crew, or pretty much anything i can put in the redtent. I can't wait to see how they like Dr Mario or balloon fight when i get them!
 
Phet, that's so cool man and, I'm a fan of that vs title as well as Excitebike, Top Gun (sry the Navy in me) and Goonies for sure as well as the all time fav SMB. I'll admit not that great at Goonies or Castlevania but love em all the same.
 
I just picked up a red tent with Castlevania in it. I wasn't a big fan of it in the NES days, but it is fun to play. The other side has The Goonies.
Anyone got any green nintendo buttons?

I have had Vs. Castlevania and ExciteBike in my Red Tent for about 2 months. I think I have played Castlevania once. :(

I guess I need to play it some more.

Phet, better watch your daughter.. the next step is Twilight. :)

I may need to play this on Mame to see what all the fuss is about!!!

I didn't have a PPU for Excitebike... just burned the Japanese version and it is an 0004 PPU ;-) i have one of those!
 
This would be a good time to ask is the VS Castlevania the same as the NES Castlevania. I've really been wanting to know.

And hey, you know you'll have to find her a copy of Haunted Castle next. Its the original Castlevania arcade game.
 
The first arcade game I ever played was Vs. Castlevania. I immediately went and got a nes with Castlevania and Mike Tyson's Punch Out.
I picked up an upright Vs. Castlevania a few years back and just love it.
My next pick up is going to be Haunted Castle. Your daughter might like that, but it is a LOT harder!
 
My 2-year old (3 in November) is REALLY into Vs. Balloon Fight right now. Of course him playing consists of moving the joystick a lot and cheering when he gets killed but it's cute none-the-less.
