Netflix uses its real NES app to reveal ‘Castlevania’ trailer

Konami hasn’t done a much with its Castlevania video game series in recent years, but you know you can’t keep Dracula down forever.

Netflix just revealed the trailer for its upcoming original animated program Castlevania, which is based on the classic series that first appeared on the Nintendo Entertainment System. The trailer starts with an NES and the custom-made Netflix app for that ancient 8-bit systems (which really works). The trailer then cuts into footage of Castlevania, and we see several action scenes and moody characters with whips and a lust for human blood.
