If you asked this question of those games they absolutely would get less than 10% no.
This is just one of those cases were the dumb common knowledge of the masses is winning but people with real standards (the elites you might say) understand the difference. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Its too different to be a remake. Aside from the series elements, it bears little resemblance to the original.

I don't recall the actual level layouts in 1 vs. 4 being even remotely similar. Which levels in 1 are supposed to correspond to which in 4? Honestly speaking, the only things that come to mind are the castle's entrance (on the outside) and the hall on the inside, with the statues, and the torture chamber to some extent. --- It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. ...

Official Castlevania timeline calls it a remake and that's all the thought I'm willing to put into it so it's good enough for me JonThePenguin posted... The IV numbering is only the case in America.

My definition of "remake" is strict: Link Between Worlds is a sequel. Takes place in the same world but different story, characters, dungeons, items, etc. Not even close to a remake. --- PSN, and GT: Waluigi1 Switch FC: SW-6848-3841-9099 ... Copied to Clipboard!

I mean obviously it being the same event in a timeline that's now well accepted is the main and probably only reason anyone considers it a remake.
If that's your criteria I can't fight you, but I really don't recognize that standard in this case. Not to mention if you made this poll out of any other (real) remake you'd probably get an over 90% yes rate. Zero Mission, Resident Evil, etc. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

There are differences in the plots of SMB 1 and 3 if you actually pay attention! Depending on what you consider "the plot" this applies to SCIV vs Castlevania as well. Like there are a lot of bosses and stages straight up not in the original Castlevania in any form or fashion. Is Simon Belmont killing the Ghost Dancers part of the plot to SCIV? There are also bosses with reduced importance/different representation in SCIV vs Castlevania-- the Medusa isn't even a real boss in SCIV for example. I mean, the plot is so thin you could argue things like these are-- particularly if you consider Koopa Kids vs Bowser Clones an important plot difference, since there isn't a whole lot to the plot of SMB3 or SMB either. The only other difference in the plots is you save kings instead of random toads --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ... Copied to Clipboard!

The only other difference in the plots is you save kings instead of random toads also SMB takes place in just the Mushroom Kingdom, SMB3 goes to many kingdoms... also I think 3 is maybe referred to as taking place after Peach is rescued in the original somewhere so it would canonically be a sequel very different situation ! --- For your BK_Sheikah00.

so it would canonically be a sequel Well my whole argument is canon is a stupid argument for considering remake vs sequel for a game series like this, at the point in time they were made-- plot matters in Castlevania now but not then so much. The "plot" was very clearly an afterthought for the games. Like if you want canon to be the end all more power to you but there are very little similarities whatsoever between SCIV and Castlevania if you're not taking what information developers spoon feed you from external materials. Consider with a lot of these older games that the series defined plot and canon isn't really given in the games themselves and is given after the fact. Just taking what's given directly in the games, Super Mario World would be a remake of Super Mario Bros 3 by pretty much every definition that SCIV is of Castlevania. It's a bastardization of the definition of remake at best. Definitely agree that any remake that isn't stretching this hard is pulling less than 10% in this poll. --- No problem!

Super Mario World would be a remake of Super Mario Bros 3 by pretty much every definition that SCIV is of Castlevania. uh I dont remember SMB3 taking place on an island of dinosaurs I mean, Im not sure where I fall on this Castlevania situation, but it is at least the same dude at the same time going through the same place for the same goal which SMB3/SMW isnt. SCIV feels like the game Castlevania 1 would be if it was made on the SNES, even if its not exactly a remake... the best comparison in my head is original LoZ / LttP rather than a straight up remake situation. --- For your BK_Sheikah00.

Well the canon of Castlevania is that Dracula's Castle is a manifestation of chaotic magic and takes a different form and a different place every time it appears so "Dracula's Castle" is not actually the same place in Castlevania vs Super Castlevania either, as the level designs are completely different.
Like it's not even "there are the same levels given a shiny coat of paint and then some extra ones"-- there is basically zero overlap in the level designs. (Which is why Jakyl's post was particularly annoying to read) --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ... Copied to Clipboard!

what other games out there would it be debatable as to whether it's actually a remake or not Probably none And I'm pretty sure the only reason the debate exists is because of people just blindly accepting word on SCIV and the timeline of Castlevania only gaining relevance well after both games were made. (yes CV3 was confirmed prequel but you still didn't have a well established reverence for timeline yet) If we wanna get technical on the canon front, I'd sooner say Castlevania and SCIV are a games that simultaneously existed in the canon at some point, then Castlevania was retroactively made non-canon by people tied to the development saying SCIV is how Castlevania really went because series story conventions are cleaner if you don't have Dracula rise so many times in the lifetime of Simon Belmont, but it's kinda pointless to make that argument anyway-- and I'm not seriously making that argument since you basically have to take statements on canon from the official sources and it would just be a technicality even if someone conceded that point (but why would they). I mostly just don't think canon is very important for determining remake status with this game to begin with, as already said. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ...
