Capcom releases Resident Evil Revelations demo on Japanese eShop (video inside)
- Thread starter Prime Blue
- Start date
Because threads end up... Well, like this. Full of conversation about the systems rather than the game itself.

Check the Epic Mickey thread. I don't know if it's still the same but I'd say a good 50% of the people in that thread were banned for port begging. It's usually bannable

It looks great hopefully Capcom hurries up and releases the demo over here. Glad that it's releasing so soon.
It's a problem and was a bannable offense long ago because it completely derails topics and prevents inteligent discussion because you are discussing wanting it on another console. If you're interested in the game talk about the game. If you want the game then buy it where it is releasing or move on. In the past it wasn't that big of a deal but when Epic Mickey, DQX and other titles were anounced as exclusively to Wii and RE5 exclusively to 360/PS3 it became a big problem which is why it became a bannable offense. I think it's stupid on both ends. The people who say it and the people who get riled up by it. Saying something is safe to assume, even Capcom, just becomes annoying because just about every Revelations topic gets ran down by people presuming that it will be ported so they will wait later. I personally enjoy discussing the game and would like to but when someone walks in here and drops a pointless, off topic post that ruins the entire thread it becomes frustrating.

1146 Blocks. Not sure how much that is in MBs, though.

The demo is just under 150MB.
Just went back in with the slide pad. Seems I forgot the controls; it's actually zL and zR for aim mode and shooting respectively. R is sub weapon.
Keeping aim mode on and playing as an FPS is doable, but it's limited to walking speed and you can't pick up items or open doors while aiming. In a room full of ooze, or if you're heading down a corridor believing something will pop out, you'll have no problem going into aim mode and playing it as an FPS; besides the walking pace aiming is fast and simple.
Not sure if that's what you were asking.
I gave aiming with the gyro a try and found it rather easy too; it has a good area range without you losing the 3D sweet spot.

It is a mainline title, just like CODE: Veronica.
Yeah, but I don't think that (and REmake on Wii) really counts in the same sense.

I enjoyed the demo but I think I'll hold out for the inevitable Mac App Store port.
In all seriousness it's a great demo. I wasn't really interested in the game, Resi as a series kind of lost me after 3 or so, but I tried the demo on a whim and it really piqued my interest. The game looks beautiful and I really enjoyed playing it. The donglepad bundle strikes me as kind of odd now, in that the game seems perfectly fine without it.
The scanner thing struck me as a bit out-of-place, but I kind of liked it. I like how it replaces your weapon, so you feel vulnerable using it. I have, of course, nearly got myself skilled by attempting to scan an enemy instead of shooting it.
Only thing that really struck me as a negative was that the sound effect for when you're turning around is ridiculous, and I constantly thought it was the squelching of some lurking monster. And some of the textures were a bit gross close-up, like the wooden panelling on cabinets and doors and stuff.

NoA probably isn't even aware demos are possible on 3DS.

Watched the playthroughs, one can just wonder what was the enemy designer thinking. Worst damn enemies ever, they look like placeholder models but I guess not.
That and the beyond-awful-but-not-campy voice acting aside this looks awesome, next AAA title on 3DS for sure.

Unless the framerate has improved I wouldn't call MGS3 3D AAA.

I want it next week or the week after that... any closer to the actual release seems pointless to me. Really disappointed in NOA/NOE and Capcom here.

I've seen kits that essentially install two HDMI ports to a block attached to the bottom of a 3DS.
They're far from cheap and uncomfortable to use, but people are getting there.
I'll believe it when I see it.
what does block mean in KB? this nintendo block thing is a pain in the neck

Sven, he is awesome.
And he has been giving hints about Monster Hunter 3G, too.
May the Lord bless his soul.

This guy did a mod that allows capture over USB, but it means seriously modding your system and I don't know if he's still selling them:

Holy shit Jill's castillian spanish voice blows out of the water even the english one!
FUCK YEAH! I knew we were going to be the european country with the good dub!n I hope the rest of the voices are as good.
She is Mar Bordallo, that usually dubs jeniffer Love Hewitt here, she has a great voice.
I hope Alfonso Valles is also in th¡s, like in Star Fox 64 3DS.
EDIT: HOLY FUCK! Is confirmed that Chris' voice in spanish is the same actor as Ezio from assassins creed, Luis Reina. I fucking love that voice actor.
Its so sad that the majority of negative votes and insultin posts in that video are from south americans.

That's a Nitro (NTR), though - not even a Twilight (TWL) unit. The mod (as professionally done as it looks) may or may not work with the CTR.

Packing this in here as the thread on the demos didn't include the game titles (also added to OP):
The demo will hit the European eShop on January 19, 2012! In other words, NoA's still sleeping it out.
