What the...?

I think you're right, those designs, specially Maria's, remind me a lot of his style. And I wouldn't count the designs as bad at all: Everyone except Alucard is excellent, specially Simon and Maria. Alucard looks a bit strange, that's undeniable. I would have loved to see him there in a suit as Arikado. The in-game models are not that good, sadly.
Anyway, this looks "wait, what?" and promising, at the same time!

Simon's design, good? But, but... Those clothes! Ack! Shorts!
Also, I've also wanted to play as Arikado (as in, with the suit) for quite long now. Stylish!  XD

I agree and I don't.
Given IGA's insistence in that he didn't want to make an action game for the Wii that consisted in whipping around all the time because it'd get tiresome, I'm glad they found a way out of it. Now you can have wiimote whip control, and only for short periods of time, while the fight lasts. So in that sense it might be a good idea.
I also agree with shindekudasai that they're at least trying new things...
But then, it ends up being a fanservice-ish, technically low-profile 3D fighting game (since it is for the Wii, who cares about doing graphics right, blahblah), Dissidia wannabe, with whacky character designs. In that part, yes, it looks retardumb. :(

LOL, gayest Simon ever!!!! I must admit he looks kinda cool, but I still prefer the original Chronicles one (whose portrait IkariDC boldly posted before).
Also, Dracula looks terrible (in a wrong way), Maria seems to come straight from a brothel and Alucard... well, let's say I wouldn't like to go there, for obvious reasons...
From what other cafers point out about its gameplay, the game, albeit a bit simple for a VS fighter, could end up being quite entertaining. How sad that, from all the consoles on the market, the one which get the highest sales (and highest number of releases) is, ironically, the only prev-gen one...

quote: My god... just why did they want to use the little girl version of Maria? The older Maria would've suited me fine, but they go and put this loli-trash in.
Probably because a) lil Maria is much more "iconic" than her older counter-part and b) She probably stands to be the only "loli" in this game.
I mean, unless they REALLY reach back and utilize some one like Carrie from the N64 game, there's only but so many little girls in the CV series that they can use. So they might as well go with the one that people have come to expect to fill that role, I guess.
And honestly, I could care less, as long as there would be at least a few "grown-ass" women to be had any way. Yoko, Charlotte and/or Sypha would be pretty obvious picks, but I would also give a hoot if "villainous females" like Elizabeth Bartley, Carmilla, the Succubus and/or the "twins" (as vampires) got in, as well.
