Shop Mode

Shop Mode allows a player to buy or sell items found in the game. Players can open their shops to sell items and equipment they have found or purchase items from the other players' shops. This mode was first introduced to the series in Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin in a similar way in which Soul Trade was implemented in Dawn of Sorrow, and again taking advantage of the portability of the system and availability to use a wireless connection.
