When it comes down to classic platform titles for the SNES one of the many titles that instantly comes to mind is Super Castlevania IV which was released by Konami back in 1991. Ever since its release Super Castlevania IV has been praised fir various in game features such as level design along with its inclusion of Modd 7 on certain levels within the game. As popular as Super Castlevania IV was for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System there are some who question whether or not this game could have achieved the same level of success in the Sega Genesis

If Super Castlevania IV was ported or released exclusively for the Sega Genesis during the early 90’s it’s questionable on whether or not it would have been as good the SNES version of the game. The Sega Genesis did not have the Mode 7 feature that the SNES had which was a huge part of the appeal that a Super Castlevania IV had. But the again a Genesis port of Super Castlevania IV would most likely resemble that of Castlevania: Bloodlines which came out in 1994. In the long run it was best that Super Castlevania IV was an SNES exclusive since was another factor that contributed to the game selling over 500,000 copies worldwide during the early 90’s.
