    Vampire Killer (Violin version from CastleVania 64 intro). Very lovely theme imho, plus has a classic Dracula feel to it.

    I want to see more details on that super vision pirate, and what is a super vision anyway?

    Great stuff I hope that LOI box is displayed nicely.

    Keep buying castlevania stuff before you get huge bills like me!

    Supervision was the "premier" NES pirate so to speak, the only that came in boxes. They are one of the primary reasons Nintendo was so hard on piracy. One of the rarer companies to release a lot of 72 pin pirates too.

    No. Gradius II did use a custom mapper (like most everything Konami made for the Famicom), but it did not use the VRC6 for enhanced sound.
