Resident Evil: Revelations

“The ship’s innards are dark, subdued, and packed with fear. The 3D screen really recreates the feel of peering into a corridor and thinking you can see something on the other end — that’s why we’re concentrating on the horror in this game; because it’s such a good fit with the hardware.” – director Koushi Nakanishi

“We want a scarier game than before, one that avoids the style of RE4 and later and instead goes with the old style up to RE3, where you’re solving puzzles and exploring. Recent games in the series have been more about fast excitement, but fear is the main drive of this game from the start — something so scary to the player, he’ll instinctively want to run as fast as he can. Suspense plays a key part here.” – producer Masachika Kawada

Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D

“The Mercenaries mode was just bonus material up until now, so a lot of gamers never even got around to playing them, I don’t think. You had to finish the main games to unlock them, which made them tough to access in the first place, and a lot of the challenges were pretty sadistically balanced besides.” – Koushi Nakanishi

“We needed to change the control system a great deal for the Nintendo 3DS. The touch screen is a really great input device, so we definitely want to get the most out of that we can.” – director Kazuhisa Inoue

“You can give them skills and adjust their weaponry. That lets you adjust them for your own play style while leveling up their skills. Each character has varying heal and defense abilities, and some skills let them unlock particular weapon features or defeat certain mid-bosses more easily. Taking advantage of these skills will make the game quicker to play and allow you to raise your characters’ levels more easily.” – director Kazuhisa Inoue

“It’s tailored to be a pure action game, so there is no story aspect to it at all. Instead of that, we’re implementing a lot of new gameplay into the action.” – director Kazuhisa Inoue

This information comes from Jools Watsham…

“Yes, we’re very excited to be working on the 3DS. We are working on a title that will be announced next year, and plan to make many, many more for the platform.”

Watsham also commented on the status of Maximillian and the Rise of the Mutant Mudds. At the moment, the game is on hold, though he did say the project could turn into a DSiWare title.

Capcom also sent along this information with the new assets…

With re-mastered stages from Resident Evil™4 and Resident Evil™ 5, Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D Edition delivers the intense Mercenaries gameplay experience for the first time on a handheld console. Whether playing alone or teaming up in co-op mode, it’s a race against time to defeat as many enemies as possible before the countdown reaches zero.

Resident Evil stars like Chris Redfield, Hunk, and Krauser are joined by Claire Redfield, who is making her Mercenaries debut. The game will define the shooter experience on the 3DS, blending familiar console controls and the all-new ability to run and shoot in a Resident Evil game.

Built from the ground up for the Nintendo 3DS, Resident Evil: Revelations sees Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield investigating a deadly threat on board a stranded cruise liner. The pair will need to fight for survival as they explore the dark and claustrophobic environments both at sea and as the action moves to dry land. Join them as they delve deeper into the secrets of this all new addition to one of gaming’s most successful series.

I have a feeling we’ll eventually come across higher-quality scans of Capcom’s Resident Evil 3DS titles. We’ll add them to the site if we happen to come across any additional images.
