Sure! I will actually try to trade for Bloodlines (Well, "Castlevania: The new generation" since I want the European version) soon, it's one of the titles I'm more interested in. It's expensive but I think it runs for less than CVIII PAL (See below). I can also get an American version, since I'm modding my Megadrive anyways.
Castlevania III is very interesting to me in that, unlike the original, it runs at the correct speed for PAL regions. However, I have heard it's really expensive, as it was released after Castlevania IV. It's over 100€ CIB and around 40€ for the cartridge. Very expensive.
Castlevania IV is one of the few SNES games I want, which is unconfortable for me because I don't think I want a SNES right now. Sure, Uniracers is awesome but do I want another console just for three or four games? I have also heard, and I'm sure they are right, that CV4 was actually designed for CVIII mechanics and then adapted, which is why parts of the level design don't make sense. That makes me wary to try it.
Rondo of Blood looks awesome. Sure, I have heard it's the first game with "zombie hallway" syndrome but the intro is so cool I will try it sooner or later.
As you can see, I overthink my game choices
