The differences between the different versions of this game are pretty substantial.

What does Sup Forums think is the best version? PS1? Saturn? PSP (DXC)? Another port?

Any reasons to play a sub-optimal version later, e.g. for exclusive content?

Saturn is the worst one.

PSX is if you want original (iconic but cringey) voice acting but no extra content.

PSP if you want the objectively best version, with accurate proper translation and extra content.

Xbox live version is great. It's backward compatible with xbox one

Is there anything separating it from the original PS1 version?

No, it's literally just emulated PS1 version.

Saturn a best for overpowered as fuck Maria instead of shitty animal abuser Maria on PSP

saturn version is absolutely shit

Just get the English patched Japanese PS1 version.

What's so bad about it?

Watch DF Retro video on SotN and you will see.

Shit framerate, shittier visuals, missing effects, it's just bad.
And the "karate maria" is just new Maria sprites traced over Richter's karate moves. It's pretty bad.

PSP Maria actually plays like her Rondo self with new moves to boot.

And is complete shit to the Saturn version

holy shit fucking this

What features does the Japanese PS1 version have that the western release doesn't?

You've got utter shit taste.
Why the fuck would you want to play as a literal Richter reskin when Richter is already playable?

>two exclusive familiars
>blood and gore is less censored
>better translation (from the fans)
>Maria mode (I might be wrong, but I vaguely this remember being in whether it was a patch or not)

None other than better voice acting and translation being a lot more faithful than the garbage official PS1 translation.

PSP version is still the best.

Those are all features of the PSP version, not Jap PS1 one.

>awful resolution
>slowdowns
>looks like shit when emulating or playing on a lcd tv
Might as well emulate the ps1 version

I never got to the upside down castle, should i just emulate the PS1 version if I don't really care about?

Is Castlevania Chronicles any good or should I stick with the original?

What the hell are you even talking about?
>Awful resolution
The same as the PS1
>Slowdowns
I can't notice any, but perhaps that's because I'm overclocking my PSP. Doesn't make a difference if you're emulating though.
>>looks like shit when emulating or playing on a lcd tv
Again, the PS1 is the same deal.

PSP version still has the bad translation, just download the english patch for the ps1 jap

Uh, no it doesn't?

anyone

Fast load times.

>No FMV cutscenes
>Can't remove a pretty cheesy background picture that maintains the aspect ratio

How do I enter the Underground Garden?
