The notes say "Sota Fujimoto", but this is linked to Sota Fujimori. What's the story?

I'm still greatly amused that they spelled it CastleBania (with a B) multiple times on every page of printed material

Typical Engrish... There's no "v" in Japanese so they use "bi" instead. |

...which was probably intentional because they use a regular 'v' on the other half of material

Do all those scans come from the same set? Couldn't it be that there's a first press which has Castlebania everywhere and a second one which corrected the typo?
(I'll check mine later) |

Nice catch, Gambler.
There must have been a reprint. I supplied the front, back, obi and tray images, and my copy has every instance of "Castlevania" spelled correctly. All of Myrkul's booklet scans (and disc images) have "Castlebania". I can supply booklet scans if necessary. EDIT: Just remembered I didn't originally supply new booklet images with my original upload because I had a hard time getting some of the blacks (there's a lot of semi-glossy black on matte black) to show up. I'll see what I can do and provide alternate images sometime soon. Last edited by Judge Ito; Jan 14, 2010 at 03:27 PM. Reason: lol spelling |

If Myrkul scans are from Mr. P. Castlevania's Realm (http://www.vgmuseum.com/mrp/2/soundtrack-chron.htm), then that's my copy. ^^

I think Devi Kobayashi, Shin Chan, Jigokuguruma Nakamura must be credited here as arrangers of Roland SC-55 ver. tracks because these tracks are same as in KICA-7615. In this album they only louder.

The X68000 version contains a file with some dev notes from the sound team. Anyone willing to translate?

Shin-Chan=programmer
Nakamura=in charge of composition/arrangement together with Kobayashi Kobayashi=in charge of guitar sounds and about half of composition/tuning |

This one is pretty hard to find in the database. Why is it listed under Castlevania (NES)? Why not make a separate entry for Castlevania Chronicles?

I understand it must be, since there is no other difference, code, date etc. But I am wondering, it could be a late reprint even if it doesn't mention this anywhere. I suppose it would be illegal to do so (e.g. reprint this album in 2005 without changing the necessary information), but the fact that this album can still be purchased brand new from a couple of places makes me wonder if it was reprinted much later than 2003/05. Another explanation could be that it was printed in much larger quantities after the B/V error was fixed, unlike albums like CotM/HoD and AoS/DoS which were definitely small prints (thank you konamistyle as usual). Any information or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I do appreciate this OST very much, even though it's partly a reprint, and partly the same tracks with different MIDI sounds + a remixed OST. |

Thanks and no, I had not figured it out.
Did this album not include a registration card? |

I wonder if they meant to say "Thrashed in the Cave" instead of "Thrashard. The only other example I could find for "Thrashard" was a track on the albulm, "Thrash Zone" by D.R.I. Perhaps it's supposed to be a portmanteau of "thrash" & "hard?"

Then there's also the fact that they wrote the Japanese logo of Castlevania Chronicles in German fracture font as ℭ𝔞𝔰𝔱𝔩𝔢𝔳𝔞𝔫𝔦𝔞, but their "v" is so extravagant it could easily be mistaken for a "b". Moreso if you're Japanese. I think both of these led to the CASTLEBANIA mistake. Quote:
Luckily, we have dedicated fans such as Kurt Kalata: His soundtrack page on Castlevania Dungeon detailed the spelling fix as early as August 13, 2002. Judging by the archived pages, it seems he noticed this after April 15, 2002 and most likely in June or August 2002. While this doesn't solve the mystery completely, this should confirm that the CASTLEBANIA version went out of print by mid-2002 at the latest. Should we have separate album entries for both prints even if they use the same catalog number? |

thanks, that's a good guess for the reprint timeline
i'm not sure this is an isolated case or if title corrections/mistakes have been made into separate entries before. technically there's no reason to have a separate entry, as nothing in the system can tell them apart, except for scans. |

Okay, I added a note and the other first-print scans, and the scans now say which print they are. What's missing is second-print scans of the booklet (everything except for Booklet Front which we already have) and of the two CDs.
Something strange I noticed: Hiroshi Iizuka is also credited for "Music & Arrangement" in the game. I suppose he'd already left CUBE and gone freelance by that point as the game is not in CUBE's old works list. Either way, he's not credited on the album. Even stranger, JASRAC has an entry for 悪魔城年代記悪魔城ドラキュラGAME MUSIC which lists X68000PS移植アレンジバージョン and X68000PS移植内音源バージョン tracks. Konami Kukeiha Club is given as composer and Yajuh-Ohkoku as performing artist. Yajuh-Ohkoku did some work on Konami albums later and they performed "Thrashard in the Cave" on KOLA-004 in 2002. But other than that, I don't know what their connection to Castlevania Chronicles is. I guess it could be an erroneous database entry. |
