For those of you chomping at the bit to bust out that whip and vanquish a force of evil or two in Konami's
Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, you might want to pre-order the game through a GameStop, EB Games, or Gamecrazy store because you're going to get one sweet package. The package consists of:
- 48 page book detailing every game in the Castlevania series
- 20th anniversary soundtrack CD
- Timeline poster detailing key events and characters in the Castlevania universe
- Special edition Castlevania DS Lite extendable stylus and game case
So who else plans on taking advantage of this sweet deal?
[Thanks duscom and Andrew!]

I pre-ordered it; let's hope EB Games actually makes good on their delivery this time. I had to fight with them last time I pre-ordered a game (Okami) to get the free gift. Sure, the Okami art board kinda sucked anyways, but it was the principle of the matter. This, on the other hand, I sure as hell better get this bonus pack or there'll be hell to pay!!!

My DEMAND is FROTHING for this game and promo materials. I heard, however, that the game may be delayed until February so Konami can add more Wifi stuff.

I preordered it like two months ago, and now I'm really glad I did!

I'm very excited about this. It remiinds me of the days when Working Designs was around. Tsk Tsk on Sony for making them go away...

why oh why does every ds news item hit this website a week after it breaks? seriously, you're great for homebrew news (usually) but come on. this was on 4cr, digg, and even notoriously late ign before you.

Wasn't this game just announced to be delayed until 2007?

If you click the link to the IGN DS article about this it says it ships, "Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin ships in mid-December." But both EBGames and GameStop have it shipping as 12/5/06. Or is it delayed until 2007 like Kouta says.

Just watched the videos on IGN, once again, the Japanese voice acting is 500x better than the English version. (Go watch the TGS trailer for both Jpn and Eng voices.) But damn... that pre-order package is pretty sweet! I may have to pre-order and then sell the game just to get it!

Blah! I went to my local EB today, and they knew nothing about this yet. This is the only pre-order bonus I've cared about since Zelda Master Quest, and chances are that I won't be able to secure it. Stupid Winnipeg. I'm gonna keep at it though. Damned if I'm just going to let it slip by.

I preordered it yesterday at GameStop. They had no idea what I was talking about. Is this an actual part of the preorder package? It doesn't seem that way. Why wouldn't the store know about it?
