3 Aug 21:20 2015		FYI you should use the (U) version of the rom for all achievements to work properly. I'm considering making a set sometime for Akumajo Dracula Densetsu since, say, Mario 2 and Mario Advance have separate sets.
18 May 21:51 2016		the achivement with the invincibility potion don t pop , i take it two times
27 Oct 1:24 2016		"n the name of my Mother... (2) (12)Deliver the final blow to Dracula as his son."------How can I earn?
5 Feb 19:39 2017		Heart of fire no working
22 Oct 20:54 2017		Yeah, as mentioned above, 'Heart of Fire' seems to be bugged, as I was not awarded it when I beat all three bosses at the end, and I do not want to do that again.
19 Jan 4:46 2018		It'd be great to see this list get ported over to the Japanese version of the game. :D
31 May 19:25 2018		That's a great game and really hard too! I got the Brando references. It was really amazing and funny mastering this set. Good job popoki!
23 Jul 15:29 2018		Is Iron Blue Intention supposed to be unlocked when Sypha gets the ice spell?
27 Oct 16:06 2018		Slowly working on getting these done. The Sypha and Grant ones will likely be hardest since I typically pick Alucard
18 Nov 3:10 2018		heart of fire, pluky pirate and thats y they call me nasty i did not receive at all in hardcore mode :(
10 Feb 13:21 2019		not working? tried all roms
10 Feb 13:26 2019		yeah, I found that it has not been working with the rom I used to beat the list with.... not sure if it's an update needed for the emulator or if something else is up....
16 Feb 23:55 2019		same :(
17 Nov 6:11 2019		Using name "HELPxxxx" which is gives you more lives will make achievements not work. Same story with passwords to start any level with extra lives.
8 Jun 9:12 2020		Mastered!
17 Jun 22:23 2020		Thunderstruck achievement haha Great ;-)
17 Jul 23:02 2020		This new achievement feels like a kid who found a new toy that other people knew about I dont think this was needed at all but whatever
2 Aug 19:22 2020		I'm getting an "unsupported" error for Thunderstruck. Anyone else?
15 Oct 5:51 2020		why make a set for the garbage version of the game
