The situation with the inability to remove saved data in Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D has kind of gotten out of control. Initially, GameStop had no intention of letting consumers trade in their games before reversing their decision yesterday. GameFly won’t let users rent the game while HVM outlets in the UK will be denying all trade-in requests.

Clearly this has become a significant issue. As a result, Capcom has responded to the controversy that has essentially escalated in just 24 hours. Here’s what they had to say…

Hi everyone. I know there are a lot of questions about the save data for Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, and we’ll try to answer as best as we can.

First, here’s the official statement:

‘In Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, all mission progress is saved directly to the Nintendo 3DS cartridge, where it cannot be reset. The nature of the game invites high levels of replayability, encouraging fans to improve mission scores. The save mechanic ensures that both original and unlocked game content will be available to all users. Secondhand game sales were not a factor in this development decision, and we hope that all our consumers will be able to enjoy the entirety of the survival-action experiences that the game does offer. ‘

Second, here’s the gist:

The situation for Rayman Origins and Nintendo platforms has been a bit confusing. Ubisoft announced the game for Wii just a few days before E3. Later, we saw the title pop up on a 3DS game list published by Nintendo, though it wasn’t on the Wii list.

But yes, Rayman Origins has been 100% confirmed for both platforms. Nintendo Power has the scoop on the game in their upcoming issue. The magazine has the following blurb in the table of contents:

“Rayman is finally back in action in Rayman Origins! Get all the details on this visually stunning four-player platformer that’s making its way to Wii and Nintendo 3DS.”


According to a Famitsu poll, readers were most pleased with Nintendo’s showing at E3 2011. Additionally, fans voted The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword as the most anticipated title from the event. Satoru Iwata took home the award for the person who had the greatest impact at E3.

Although gamers were pleased with Nintendo, one analyst was not. SMBC Nikko Securities analyst Eiji Maeda shared the following comments with Famitsu:

“Nintendo’s stock price plummeted after the Wii U announcement, partly because of 3DS sales falling below expectations. I also think that while the E3 presentation explained the device well, the mainstream press just described it as a ‘tablet controller’ and didn’t make a great effort to push the value of it. It was a lot easier for people to get the impression that Sony was trying hard with the PS Vita, especially on the price.”

Maeda also commented on the show overall:

“I think it was the most interesting E3 in several years. The hardware conferences had a lot of impact, as did the sheer number of third-party titles. The popularity of Capcom’s booth was also something that caught my eye. While they didn’t get the flashy displays of the console titles, there were a lot of private showings held for smartphone and social games, and a great deal of companies are putting a remarkable amount of resources into those markets.”

Game-shop owner Hisako Akitani also provided some commentary, discussing how she was disappointed by the lack of Japanese games at E3:

“Activision and the other Western third parties put on a good show, but my impression was that Japanese publishers weren’t putting in much effort. I’d like to think that they were saving their ‘A’ game for the Tokyo Game Show, but it was still disappointing.”

Yikes… what a terrible debut for Earth Seeker. It’s not the best game in the world, but at least it’s a nice, fairly hardcore title that Japanese gamers are able to experience. Why did it sell so poorly?
