Look: The Q-Meister always protects her sources, but something's coming, and I hear it's much more gold than lead. Stay tuned!

Going to scour Usenet and WWW forums for more info before we go to press. 'Net-savvy fans always know where the bodies are buried...

Can CSI-GAF decipher what's on the notepad document?
CV had like 10 re-prints on NES. Almost impossible it wasn't a near million seller in the US alone surely. Add at least a couple of Japanese and EU releases. It's really hard to get very old games sales data, but it was a huge name back then.
Does anyone know any reliable sales data for SotN?
Found this, NPD, USA only and only as far back as 1997:There's this old promotional Konami flayer from 1995 and it says the Castlevania series before that point had sold "over 4 million units".

"WHAT IS A MAAAAAAN?! A LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS?"Eyes peeled and following that account. But enough talk. Have at me!

I have no idea if the following also has a role to this, but this was posted on the Castlevania Dungeon.
The first sign rises with the full moon.
Soon, I will return.
As you can see with the pentagram, it exactly matches the one from the teaser image, so either this is a fan mock-up, or really some viral campaign for IGA's project, which has resurrected like a demon vampire king.
Just something to note. Took a look at that forum post. The user name is IGAVANIA and whoever they have has never posted before that one thread. Favorite game is listed as SOTN.
We don't need a 1999 gameAs you can see with the pentagram, it exactly matches the one from the teaser image, so either this is a fan mock-up, or really some viral campaign for IGA's project, which has resurrected like a demon vampire king.
I came in here expecting some necro bump of disappointment but holy shit this might actually be a thing again!?
Imagine if Igarashi bought Castlevania
That'd be so wonderful
With what money? They often made him make games with literal straw and sticks in terms of budget.
Another interesting thing regarding the tweet from Quarterwomann
It was favourited by Shane Bettenhausen from Sony.
Don't know if this means anything (possibly Sony are going to be funding him?) But I guess we'll have to wait and see
Getting a publisher to fund it would certainly explain Iga suddenly bouncing back from mobile developmentAnother interesting thing regarding the tweet from Quarterwomann

They did not literally give him straw and sticks. You're just being too silly!

This fits the supposed alchemy theme of the game.Look: The Q-Meister always protects her sources, but something's coming, and I hear it's much more gold than lead. Stay tuned!

Okay. Paper mache and $3,000.
Isn't It more likely that he just enjoys that the Quarterman name has been revived to tease a game from a dev he respects? Like it says right there in his bio, Shane is ex-EGM and probably wrote under the Quarterman name himself a few times. He's also friends with the 8-4 guys who are probably running this twitter account, two of whom are also ex-EGM/1up. And Shane had mentioned before on podcasts how much he enjoyed Igavanias.Another interesting thing regarding the tweet from Quarterwomann

Don't read too much into the favorite-ing.
Imagine if QuarterWoman is PORTRAITofRUIN.
Same. Time to...start the engine again?I came in here expecting some necro bump of disappointment but holy shit this might actually be a thing again!?
^This+Michiru Yamane would beAMAZING!It better be available for the 3DS.
And please be a SHAMELESS Castlevania clone.
^This+Michiru Yamane would beAMAZING!
Koji Igarashi + Michiru Yamane + Ayame Kojima pls.
Koji Igarashi + Michiru Yamane + Ayame Kojima pls.
Yes, this is all I need.
If they can't get Ayame Kojima, then Masaki Hirooka (Order of Ecclesia's artist) is an acceptable substitute.
Koji Igarashi + Michiru Yamane + Ayame Kojima pls.
