Versions alternatives
There were two initial versions of Akumajô Dracula released in 1987: a Famicom Disk System version and an MSX version. The original Famicom version is a more action-oriented game, where the player can acquired power-ups to enemies and can clear stages by simply going from point A to point B. On the other hand, the MSX version is more of an exploration game, requiring player to find keys to clear stages and having to purchase their power-ups from merchants. The level designs and some of the enemies are different as well. The MSX version uses the same sprites as the Famicom version (with more colors), but with different backgrounds. In Europe, the MSX version was released as "Vampire Killer" and most people often erronously believed that it was made first due to the later copyright date in the localized NES version (Castlevania).

Very difficult

I remembered somewhat enjoying this game at times and completely hating it at other times. Castlevania I and III are both extremely difficult. The first few levels are relatively easy, but really get hard later on. Typical of many original NES games, you get three opportunities and after that you start all over from the beginning. That's one of the things that made it so difficult. Another thing I remembered were the controls - they weren't very intuitive, unlike those on Zelda or the Supermario series. I had a particularly difficult time timing my jumps, as I would all-too-often jump into a pit and die. I've used a game genie with little success on Castlevania. On the bright side, Castlevania had among the coolest video game background music.
