Crazy Kid Plays Through Castlevania With A Dance Pad

In between eating KFC and removing vital pages out of history books, Southerners also specialize in beating videogames in new and interesting ways. Case and point: Nick Hagman, a Kentucky native who decided he would run through the original Castlevania on the NES using a Mario DDR dance pad. Now, that game is hard enough by just tapping fingers, but I can’t imagine Travolta’ing my way through the mansion personally. It seems like he is making good progress, however, and is already at level 5 in his practice run.

Nick Hagman isn’t a stranger to the VGM community, as he has released many remixes under the name Nario. His most recent work was Most of Me at MAGFest 8. Catch the rest of his run on his YouTube [1] account.

This is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever seen in my life. And you’re such a racist.

Not KFC, BOJANGLES. BOJANGLES, not KFC. If I could reach through this screen, I’d rip this blog from the pages of history.

GO NICK!

This is Nick Hagman a.k.a. Nario, the guy in the video.

I want to thank you for covering this video series of mine, Audun. I had no idea that it was going to be covered, and I’m honored. I’ve also seen it covered by Dale North (THE MAN) on Destructoid, and also on Tiny Cartridge as well. I am very thankful, grateful, and honored by this.

I also want to add that I’ve not only gotten better at the dance pad in the later episodes of this series, but that I’ve also gotten to Dracula. That’s right, the final boss. I have wasted 53 lives on trying to beat that (blood) sucker, but I’m slowly getting there.

I’ll try to keep you all posted! Thanks for the support and the positive feedback!
