Download Episode 46: “Castlevania vol. 2 – Handhelds” Here!

It’s our first show of October, and as promised 1 year ago this month, Mike and Ed are back with another podcast focusing on Castlevania!  This time, the guys tackle the portable titles, starting with the Game Boy and following the series lineage up to the 3DS. They discuss how the handheld soundtracks have evolved over the years, and of course play some of their favorite music from the games.  Dracula may be right around the corner, but we promise that this episode doesn’t “suck!”
