Capcom has announced that it is bringing its Nintendo 3DS titles to the systems eShop in the coming months.
That could and is likely to include Super Street Fighter IV 3D, Resident Evil: Revelations and Resident Evil: The Mercenaries, all of which will soon be out of print.
The move was announced by Capcom’s Senior Vice-President Christian Svensson on the Capcom Unity Blog;

What’s the bet that they’ll be any cheaper than at retail? Will you pick up any of the games when they’re released?

Y’know, I’d love to jump on this, but until the prices budge I can’t justify it. It’d be great if (for whatever reason) you couldn’t get to a game store, but as long as I can pop into a JB or EB and pick up these games at at least $10 to $15 cheaper, I can’t justify it.
I look forward to Resident Evil 4 on 3DS. This is one of the best Wii games and Resident Evil games. Capcom would be dumb not to port it over.
As much as I loved the RE:R demo and want it, the prices on the eShop are ridiculous for retail games. I’d love to see some sales,with significant savings, then I would part with my cash. As it stands, the devs with exclusive eShop content and whose prices reflect the digital age we live in are the ones getting my money.
Agree with everyone. Have $60 worth to spend on the e shop and can only get 2 or 3 games that are $50, the rest are $70. Went to dick smith today and kid Icarus is $30… 40 cheaper. Would much rather download than have cartridges but not at the moment. Sad thing is, Nintendo could think nobody is supporting it.
Digital download should be cheaper than retail. But that won’t happen as it would kill the retail market….
