New Castlevania in the Works for DS, Meat Remains Unexplained

Among many other announcements, Koji Igarashi, producer on the Castlevania series, revealed to Game | Life that a new DS game is in development, although it has yet to be officially announced. Iga says the wait on announcing the game is so that people can enjoy Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles, which releases today on PSP (and was one of the games I reminded you all about this month).
When asked what was next for the series (as far as games go), Iga responded, “First, we’re doing another Nintendo DS version. There hasn’t been an official announcement, but we’re doing it. First, we want people to enjoy the PSP version, and afterwards we’re announcing it. So, please wait a little bit.”
He also discusses the Castlevania live action movie and a few other subjects, including this mystery:
Wired: Last question. Why does Dracula keep putting meat inside the walls of his castle?
Igarashi: You should ask, why do they eat it! I’ve thought about this stuff. I’ve actually thought about the candles. The candles are people’s souls that were taken by Death or by the vampires. In Japan there are candles that represent life. So, when you release the souls from the candles by whipping them, they give you a “thank you” present. Thank-you hearts, or thank-you holy water.
The meat, I have no idea.
I knew it!
