Castlevania Judgment revealed as a 3D fighter for Wii?
Those who already have their issue of Nintendo Power might find a surprise beyond the Mega Man 9 reveal. Tips are coming into GoNintendo that the new issue reveals Castlevania Judgment for Wii as a 3D fighter, of all things. There’s a screenshot someone photographed out of the issue floating around, but until I see it with my own eyes, I think I’m going to hold off my own… uh, judgment.
More information on this alleged game are at the source below. These include some confirmed characters beyond Simon and Alucard pictured at left and a bit more information.
I’m not sure how I would feel about this. Of course I’d get it, this is Castlevania, and I love everything in the series. I’m happy simply because it’s Castlevania. But perhaps what I wanted was something a bit more along the lines of what I’m playing now with Curse of Darkness, but updated for Wii.

I think it’s safe to say that you can feel disappointed like the rest of the video game community when they heard this news. People were hoping for a traditional 2D or 3D Castlevania to come to the Wii, like you said something along the lines of Curse of Darkness or maybe even a Wii remake of Aria of Sorrow. However we end up with a 3D shovelware fighter wrapped in a Castlevania skin wrap that will just become another title on the Wii like any other 3rd party game for this system.
This opinion is based on the little information there is. My views and opinions are subject to change upon further information.

I think this is actually a good thing for the Wii . . . it’s a great console for casual gamers but there aren’t that many games that appeal to hardcore gamers–the release of a Castlevania fighter will help change that however (and give people something else to play besides Smash Bros. and Guitar Hero)
I have to agree. The more I think about this game concept, the more appealing it is to me. I just hope it looks and plays at least as well as Soul Calibur II did on Gamecube.
