Vampire Killer

Vampire Killer, known in Japan as Akumajō Dracula, is a 1986 platform game developed and published by Konami for the MSX2. It is a parallel version of the original Castlevania, which debuted a month earlier for the Famicom Disk System under the same Japanese title. However, the MSX2 version was localized first in Europe and was published without the Castlevania branding that the franchise would start using abroad in 1987 when the NES version was released in North America (where neither Vampire Killer nor the MSX2 platform were released). It was released on the Project EGG website on July 22, 2014, and Wii U's Virtual Console on December 17, 2014, in Japan.
