Capcom has announced that its lowering the recommended retail price of Resident Evil: Revelations to $40. The game was originally priced at $50 which Capcom said was due to the game coming on a 4GB Nintendo 3DS cartridge. Capcom acknowledged that the pricing was too steep and said that they’ve “spent weeks looking for a way to bring [the] cost down to standard 3DS pricing.”

i’m very happy to hear this
resident evil on nintendo????? ahahahahHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA this is so lame nintendo trying to go hardcore!!!!!!1 nintendo fails
go fuck your muslim ass ya dick, RE4 was ORIGINALLY on gamecube, or are you too STUPID to know that?
lol one of the games best in the series started on the gamecube.
Don’t feed the trolls
You don’t kill trolls with ignorance. You kill them with fire.
In that case……….. *grabs flamethrower* >:)
He’s not a troll… he’s Muslim… hmmm… what kills Muslims?… SOMEONE MAN THE PORKS CANNONS, WE’RE IN FOR ANOTHER CRUSADE!!!
hey dude this is really offensive
if you track his IP youll see hes just the same troll using another name
and please no racist comments
thank you
You are worst than any troll with your blindly bigotted and racist comments.
And you’re the “worse” at spelling
aww, the angry sony fanboy is venting his anger because the vita is failing in its handheld-loving country of origin. leave him alone, guys. this is the only way he can feel better, seeing how the vita’s level of progress sure won’t pick his spirits up anytime soon
retard on unofficial nintendo site? ahahahahHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA this is so lame muslim trying to look cool!!!!!!1 muslim fails
…..wow. This is too funny. Toooo funny.
He’s trollin’ trollin’ trollin’
I hope you like trollin’ too…
(and obviously he hasn’t played it. It’s the best Resident Evil ever)
It’s going to be such an epic game.
Great :) I played the Demo and might pick this up somewhere down the line. Right now my #1 priority 3DS game is Luigi’s Mansion 2 since i already have about $25 invested in the pre-order. After that, i’m saving all my money for the Wii U.
i played the demo to um can some one tell me what to do if i run out of plays
You buy the game
you can still see the spelling mistake on the side
nevermind
Ummmm…can you?
iam so geting this
Must have settled on firing whoever checks the grammar on the box arts as their “way to bring the price down.” How else do you explain “revelaitions?”
This
Haha glad I wasn’t the only one who thought I was witty enough.
good, I want a 3DS
Yes. And please lower the price for The Mercenaries so I can finally buy it without feeling like I’ve wasted $10 to $20.
I’m glad they’re doing the best they can do while being mindful of consumer costs.
ok, awesome, now they got me. I wasn’t planning to buy because I was like : wtf, $50 for a 3DS game, I never pay that price for PC games!!!!!
Now it’s totally worth it. Minus $5 when you preorder online on BestBuy, $35 is kinda great :)
lmao this is the most BS ive ever read, lol 4GB cartridge does not mean they have to pay extra or something, the “spent weeks looking for a way to bring [the] cost down to standard 3DS pricing.” is just fake, the real reason its expensive is because Capcom are VERY greedy i.e. Multiple versions of games etc…
so 4GB memory sticks are more expensive then 2GB memory sticks because the manufacturer is greedy?? … I KNEW IT!
You sir… Are a winner
Pretty sure the difference between a 4gb and 2gb cart is only pennys when you order the number that capcom has.
I wonder if this has to do with the spewlling mistake :p
I see what you did there
Whens mario tennis coming out?
Hmm… No word yet on fixing the spelling error?
Oh, so I guess I will be receiving some money from it since I’ve already paid the full price of $50. I’m not sure I’ll be buying the Circle Pad Pro for this since the demo played extremely well compared to RE 4 and 5. Now I have to decide between Tales of the Abyss and Tekken. Tekken seems to have the upper hand for me since I saw a few videos on TotA and it looks kind of boring, and I like JRPGs.
They lowerd the price coz they fucked up with the box art lol at wrong spelling
That just lowered the price of your so-called “collectable”. The more it was worth, the more value later on (theoretically).
Anyone notice they fixed the spelling on the side? hee hee hee.
The misspelling was on the North American version, the one in the picture is the European version………
Not really played a RE game before. Played the demo on 3DS and it wasn’t really that great. They don’t give you enough damn ammo. :/ Maybe I’ll try one on a home console see if its better with a decent controller.
That’s the whole point of the game, to go back to its roots of a survival horror game where you need to be conservative of ammo. RE5 was out in the open and offered plenty of ammo, which took away from the survivor horror aspect of the game.
True I guess. I’ll have to be more conservative. Can you recommend a RE game to check out on a home console that would be a good introduction to the series?
Resident evil Remake is a hood way to start on the classic horror series. Its for the gamecube and its AWESOME.
A good one to start on would probably be Re 4 its the most critically acclaim out of all the others in the series and it has the perfect blend of survival horror and action i highly recommend getting it
That’s like saying: “I don’t like Tetris, there’s never enough line blocks”
You mean Revelaitons, right?
looks like I’ll be getting this game on month one.
I have a $30 Target gift card. I’m short ten bucks!
Good, because what will happen when other games start coming out on 4GB game cartridges?
Capcom I love you now more than ever. Will you marry me? (And possibly give us MH4 and MML3 in the west as well as put RE6 on Wii U?)
no thank you i wait for the add dumb shit that nobody wants edition :]
+1
(even at 15 i dont think ill be picking it up)
this just turned the game from a “ehh I’ll buy it whenever” to “holy sh*t i’m getting it ASAP” i will be picking up the bundle as well…..60 bucks :) worth it!!
Gee, from the idiocy from the majority of these posts on Sickr’s blog, I really wonder what the age demographics are, because it’d sure explain a lot. Have some class, people.
Mario and Sonic 2012 demo out in America now, downloading it.
Please learn some grammer and spelling also to many reduntancy. Btw humble is part of class you dumb redneck hick.
Just a heads up, at least on Gamestops website you can get a bundle with the Circle pad pro and the game for about $70, although if you really want to save about $10 just buy them seperatly which will save you $10. At the time, the game did come with a pre-order custom case, but it’s hard to say if it is still coming with it or not.
Ehh doesn’t look bad, tried the demo, but something about mgs just attracts me in a way this game doesn’t ….
Crapcom ruin megaman fuck resident duty fuck crapcom fuck street figt vs teken fuck the fans but most of all fuck sickr for promting crapcom u fail faggot
eh. I got Resi yesterday with the circle pad pro (29.99 for the bundle on zavvi) it’s pretty ok I guess. Finding it very hard to actually get into it. Circle Pad Pro is really nice tho. Makes the 3DS comfortable.
Nice to know I’ll be saving $10. Thanks Crapcom!
Yet this is €60 in Europe.
no it’s not, I paid € 40,- and it’s really worth the money cause you get a lot of bang out of youre buck!
Now I gonna have to skip Circle Pad Pro and get MGS3D and RE: Revelations. o-o
Sickr, it’s not ”Revelations”, it’s ”Revelaitions” oficially! :p
My friend in Europe said the Circle Pad Pro didn’t really make the game much better, and she recommend I wait to pick it up, just FYI.
Also, Gamestop won’t guarantee my free 3DS case with pre-order anymore… :( I was pretty pissed about that.
the elevator part on revelations scared the crap outa me

It’s 4 Gb not 4GB. The lower case b is important because it means bit, not byte.
The cartridge is actually 512 Megabytes which sort of sounds much less impressive but having played the game I can tell you size isn’t everything!
