Looks like Richter and Maria are coming across the pond.
Late last month, a Virtual Console release of Konami's TurboGrafx-16 CD-ROM classic Castlevania: Rondo of Blood made an appearance in the listings of the Australian OFLC ratings board. Fans of the series hoped that this event heralded an imminent North American release, and it seems that their prayers have been answered.
A recent listing on the ESRB website all but confirms the impending release of the title, presumably on the North American Virtual Console service. Castlevania: Rondo of Blood is given a Teen rating for "Animated Blood [and] Fantasy Violence".
No date has been announced for the game's release.
