Zelda II: The Adventure of Link VS Castlevania II: Simon's Quest - GameDrome ft. Poetic Justice

It's Link VS Simon Belmont, Zelda VS Castlevania in this sequel-based battle to the pain.  And we're not facing the Captain N versions, both those guys were dicks.

When we pit Castlevania against Zelda, it's easy to see who comes out on top.  After all, while Castlevania is an amazing series and co-spawned the metroidvania sub-genre, Zelda has some of the top rated games in Video Game history.  I mean, we might argue Castlevania is better in a lot of ways, but we'd lose against the multitude of Zelda fanatics who love that game to it's core.  The tricky part comes when we compare different games in the series.

Ocarina of Time is amazing - but so is Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.  Is Phantom Hourglass that much better than Aria & Dawn of Sorrow? 

Here's a tough one: let's say we take the weakest games in the series.  I actually love Zelda 2, but it is the least popular of it's series.  I also think Castlevania 2 has a surprisingly interesting aesthetic, once you get by the impossible puzzles.  But which of these maligned, battered and bemoaned soldiers stands up when the spears are dropped?  Which one would you play if somebody forced you?

Which game works best?
