As depicted in the screen shot from Nintendo Power above, Simon Belmont might just be stronger than Alucard. But who is the strongest Belmont? You’ll have to wait until Fall 2008, when Konami will release the first Castlevania fighting game, Castlevania Judgement on the Wii.

The game was announced in the August 2008 issue of Nintendo Power, which devoted four pages to the upcoming fighter. In the article, Simon Belmont, Shanoa, Maria Renard, Alucard and Dracula were revealed as playable characters and it was announced that subweapons (like the classic holy water, daggers and crosses) would be returning and hearts would still determine how many could be used. The game will also feature wiimote and nunchuk controls, Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection multiplayer, conversations between characters and classic Castlevania music.

An interesting aspect is the connectivity between Castlevania Judgement and the DS game Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. Apparently the two games will be able to connect over Wi-Fi to unlock bonus materials, though the press release doesn’t specify if the bonuses will be in Judgement, Ecclesia or both.
