Can't say that I'm surprised/shocked. There has been too much RE lately, the series needs a break.

Lmao. I actually find this hilarious. Revelations is a good game, but most people who wanted to play it already did last year. They probably thought it'd make more money on consoles.

It's good to know the 3DS has an audience where adult games sell well. I'd play this game but jokes aside, it is quite violent and my parents don't like me playing violent games. So out of respect and stuff, I probably won't be playing this game on anything.

I'm not surprised either. Like Gaymer said, the people who wanted a good RE had already played it by the time the port released.

Also keep in mind that it's $20 on 3DS, and how much on consoles? $60?

$50. But what does that have to do with anything? The 3DS one has been out for a while, so of course the price would drop by now. Capcom tried to make a quick buck with this cash in, but it seems to have backfired.

You're paying for the same game though. Doesn't matter that the port is newer.

Yes it does matter. The point I'm trying to make is that people who wanted the game already bought it on the 3DS. Which I already stated in my first post.

I've held off buying the home console port and never bought the 3DS version. I suspect with these poor sales numbers it will probably be heavily discounted soon and I'll pick it up then.

I know I didn't buy it because I have two copies for 3ds.
Still tempted by that Racheal in Raid though, when it's cheaper.

Maybe the brand was over exposed and unfortunately, not the good kind of exposure.

The 3DS version is cheaper and was released a lot earlier. Unless the console version is cheaper I don't see ever selling very good.

I'm still going to buy it for the Wii U to have a console experience with it though.
