Claustrophobic Setting, Awe-Inspiring 3D and a New Horror Set the Stage for the Most Fear-Inducing Experience on Nintendo 3DSTM
SAN MATEO, Calif. — Feb. 7, 2012 — Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced that Resident Evil® Revelations is now available for the Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system in North America. Featuring tension building gameplay and limited ammunition supplies, the terror is intense as a menacing new horror takes the fight above and below water on the supposedly abandoned Queen Zenobia cruise ship. Episodic gameplay moves between the hallways of the Queen Zenobia, snow-covered mountaintops, and the floating city of Terragrigia in a story seen through the perspective of four playable characters. Built from the ground up specifically for Nintendo 3DS, Resident Evil Revelations brings the fear to life using the MT Framework® Mobile engine to deliver astounding visuals rendered in three dimensions.
In an all-new storyline that takes place between the events of Resident Evil®4 and Resident Evil®5, Resident Evil Revelations follows branching stories of franchise favorite characters Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield. Chris has disappeared and it’s up to Jill, along with her new partner Parker Luciani, to track down his whereabouts. Their only clue leads them to an abandoned cruise ship in the Mediterranean. Far from being empty, the vessel hides danger around every corner as Jill and Parker explore the confined spaces of the ship, facing frightening horrors that emerge from the darkness. For the first time in the franchise, players will venture underwater in an effort to escape the terrifying creatures roaming the ship. Full of conspiracies and plot twists, Resident Evil Revelations is told in the style of a TV drama as players work to discover the location of Chris Redfield, the source of the T-Virus, and the intentions of a mysterious terrorist organization, Veltro.

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Denpa Ningen RPG offers arguably the most in-depth experience of any demo on the eShop thus far.
The demo itself, which is on the Japanese store right now, contains a large amount of gameplay. Users may find themselves playing for up to thirty minutes or possibly even an hour.
Perhaps most important is that the Denpa Ningen RPG demo can transfer a save file to the final downloadable version. Once players complete the demo, they’ll be notified that their progress can be implemented in the retail edition.
