Capcom on the launch of their 3DS titles…

“We announced Resident Evil Revelations and Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition at E3, but these are not included in our plan for this fiscal year. At present, it’s (timing for 3DS game releases are) to be determined.”

Capcom on development costs of the 3DS…

“If we use our internally developed engine MT Framework, it is possible to share the basic development process with other platforms, so we don’t think [development costs] will see extreme rises.”

Capcom on whether or not 3DS games using the MT Framework means it will be a part of a multiplatform strategy…

“We decide platform by considering the type of game and other areas. It’s not the case that we’ll simply release one game on all platforms.”
