HOLY SHIT!!! THAT MUSIC!!! WOW! JUST WOW!!!
That is real classic Resident Evil right there! It really does look like the best of both worlds (Classic RE atmosphere, pacing and music with RE4 style gameplay and some new elements of its own)
Never.

That first quarter Japan line-up for the 3DS is very amazing from a critical and sales potential standpoint. Nintendo pretty much let the first two months open for third parties to duke it out. Well outside of Ghost Camera which I do not know why Nintendo is still publishing the Fatal Frame series.
Kid Icarus (March) and Fire Emblem (April) will hopefully both do well. It definitely is two very exciting games for the enthusiasts.
Kiki Trick isn't by the WarioWare team per say. I think it has cumulative designers from the WarioWare, Rhythm Tengoku, and Tomodachi Collection team from what I gathered from the Iwata's Asks. All three teams fall under Yoshio Sakamoto. Hopefully this game can continue the fine streak of sales Mr. Sakamoto has in Japan (outside of Metroid that is).

Mario & Sonic 3 is also a Nintendo game in Japan fwiw. I'm surprised about the Mario Party 9 no-show since the west is getting it in March.

So probably no chance of Kiki Trick coming out in NA huh?
It has real life videos of Japanese actors (which they're not stupid enough to try and dub over) and it's niche as fuck.
Take a guess

Doesn't this deserve its own thread? Looks incredible.
I dont think there was any MGS footage during the Nintendo Direct
Cool, someone finally took a video of the MGS demo.
I think the backlash MGS 3D gets is in great majority due to the fact that people expect the game to look like the Naked Sample tech demo. Even if it doesn't look that bad, it's still very disappointing :/

Death Prophet
There was a video of a cutscenes running at what looked like 15 FPS or less. That and the screenshots were so terrible.
Man, they have to make a classic final fantasy for the 3ds, look at the enemy animations
Seemingly not. NoA fb and twitter have been completely silent on the matter. Also looks like Hulu Plus won't be coming before the end of the year.

Resident Evil looks really good, like the return to (classic) form I've been asking for. Where/when does story take place? I played half of 4 and none of 5, but still own both.
Fire Emblem looks good as well, but there was a niggling choppiness or frame-drops. It could be the video, or an early build's fault, but it needs to go.

Before 5

So all I need to do is to complete half an excellent game lol. Thanks Capcom.

Between 4 and 5. It seems relatively self contained, though.
Takes place after RE4 but before RE5. Which, like every other "interquel" will lead to massive plot holes of course
Just played the demo last night. The framerate is indeed horrible. It can be a dealbreaker. I am borderline not-buy because the framerate makes me dizzy when I watch the cutscenes.

After seeing Iwata with his wifey last night, I decided to make a short "subtitled" version of the video. The subtitling is off, and I'm not sure anyone will like it, but hopefully someone does!
Video here!

Here's a video of me showing the Theatrhythm demo -- medium and hard versions.

Wait, it looks like crap and also has a horrible framerate? Magicians at work - smh.
Medium still looks easy but hard mode is interesting! I hope there's another difficult mode, "insanity" or something else.
Is the game playable with buttons?

No. Touch screen only. You have to do directional gestures with certain beats (so you may need to do a diagonal down slash or an upwards slash with certain beats), so it wouldn't work with buttons.
It's probably the same demo I played at Eurogamer Expo. I can tell you that the framerate is complete shit, gives it a mobile phone game esc look. Oh and they don't turn off depth of field in 3D mode, making everything look like it's smeared with vaselene (depth of field is useless with S3D since your eyes are supposed to focus on objects naturally with your eyes blurring everything else). Horrible!
Ouch, bummer :\

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
That video itself seems to have low frame rate, can't really tell how the game itself runs.
Controls/HUD stuff seem to be inspired by Peace Walker in some ways, a good thing.
But yeah, seeing the MGS collection upcoming doesn't make this look worthwhile.
But since they're going ahead with it it'd be nice if it became a good port too.
Shame they didn't get a new game on par with REvelations or something.

I lol'd @ "gourmet turtles".
That actually makes me wonder if the Best Buy 3DS systems in the US will be getting the demo soon since those already have a bunch of demos.
Pretty sure it does, maybe you have to enable it in the options menu?guys does the circle pad pro work with RE?
seems to screw up the controls for me
what's the issue?

I'm following your youtube! While I do import every once in a while it's only games that I'm interested in that I don't think will come to the US. Theatrhythm was trademarked in the US & Europe so hopefully they do come over. I have a Japanese 3DS with just 3 import games so far...really wanna import this but will wait to support the NA release.
