“I’ve been most impressed with the Nintendo 3DS. The Resident Evil demo was very impressive. The real time graphics in that are very impressive and I’ve already seen things that I can learn from that.” – Masahiro Sakurai
At E3, it didn’t seem like Revelations was blowing players away. But for some reason, people have really sounded like they’ve enjoyed it since then. I’m certainly looking forward to it, and I was surprised to learn that the official trailer Capcom released was running in real time.
