Finally, all speculation can come to an end regarding the 3DS’ launch date and price. Nintendo just announced at their official conference in Japan that the portable will go on sale on February 26, 2011 for 25000 yen. In North America and Europe, the system will be out sometime in March.

As it turns out, Resident Evil: Revelations isn’t the only 3DS RE game in the works. A short while ago, it was announced that Resident Evil: The Mercenaries is also in development for the system. Capcom has also saved one additional announcement for the 3DS: Mega Man Legends 3. You can check out more details below.
