Resident Evil The Mercenaries 3DS Announced

[Vector]

What a joke. A Mercenaries-only title? What a complete joke. Instead of adding the option in Revelations, they make you buy a whole new game altogether. Absolutely pathetic. I realize the milking of Resident Evil has been in full swing for a few years now, but this is downright atrocious. It looks like RE5's Mercs mode but with new characters. Why couldn't they have just added more characters for RE5? Because they'd rather charge full fucking price for a brand new game on a brand new handheld.

The 3DS has a pretty serious lineup, I'll give it that... but at $300 at launch, I don't see myself getting it.

As for the Revelations footage...



...that looks a lot like a Regenerator, no?
