NetDevil's here, and we get to talk to the guys working on the Lego MMO, which is cool, but man, I want me some hot Iga action.

Keiji Inafune, aka Inafking.

Geez, all he's done for Capcom (Megaman, Onimusha, Dead Rising, etc.) and there are still people that don't know his name? This makes me a sad Bamboo Pandamonium. :(

Not that there's anything terrible about the anime look they gave the DS games, it just didn't seem to really fit the series all that well.

Why? SotN is already on XBLA. This is for the PSP ONLY 360 fanboy! Go try to steal some Wii games.

I love Rondo of Blood.

It's very, very big, and it was the first place I got a chance to play a PS3.

He did a video interview with 1UP a while back, and he was wearing that hat, a black T-shirt, and black leather pants with cowboy boots. Badass.

It gives fans a chance to meet him and will sell a lot of existing Castlevania games as well as get EB a bunch of preorders for the new one.

It's not the most logical order to do it in, but if the alternative is for him just to fly back to Japan and not do a signing event then this is better.

Sure he can. I think hats are way cooler than baseball caps for instance, shows he doesn´t give a shit about how other people dress themselves. Hope he uses it. :)
