Well, I just got it, and I haven't played it much. The graphical style is similar to the Aria of Sorrow, only a lot better, and the animations are incredible. Graphics and animations are easily the best that has been seen in the 2D series. The music is also quite stunning, in combinations with the graphics, it takes me away to that very magical place that I remembered being when I played Castlevania I and III, and Faxanadu when I was a child. It is a nice feeling.
So far I haven't really seen much in terms of touch screen functionality. The seal drawing thing is already known; but right now it is mainly the dual screen feature that is mst widely used; it's used as the status/map screen and keeps the main screen clear.
I'm going to play some more and finish it before I write any more. At this point in time this is easily my favourite handheld game, EVER (well, I can see myself saying that down the road). There has never been anything like it before on a handheld system. This is a work of art. I didn't think Konami had it in them to create a game like this. This game is special.
