Players can try out new genres or series, often weeks before the full versions are available in stores." "The demo program allows Nintendo 3DS players to be among the first to test-drive select games. Tony Elison, Nintendo of America's senior director and general manager of Network Business, touts the benefits of 3DS demos.
Remember, Rayman: Origins won Game Rant's 2011 Video Game Awards for Best Platformer and Achievement in Artistic Design - this is one game that we can't wait to see in glasses-free 3D. Nintendo already has demos lined up for Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D and Rayman: Origins. While the eShop's first 3DS demos have been dated, don't think the program will end with Mario & Sonic. In any case, the limited number of demo trials available to players hasn't hurt Monster Hunter's fortunes - Monster Hunter 3G is Japan's third best selling game of 2011, narrowly losing the number two spot to Super Mario 3D Land. With the demo releasing tomorrow, we'll know soon enough. Whether Capcom, publisher of both Monster Hunter and Resident Evil, has enacted a similar limit on the North American Revelations demo has not been disclosed. True to form, the Monster Hunter 3G demo that debuted in Japan shortly before the game released was limited to 30 plays. During the briefing, Nintendo was keen to stress that publishers would be able to limit the number of times 3DS demos could be played. Nintendo first announced playable 3DS demos as part of its Semi-Annual Financial Results Briefing.
Heading the charge is none other than Capcom's hotly anticipated Resident Evil: Revelations, with a Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games demo scheduled to follow a week later. Starting January 19th, 3DS owners will be able to download playable demos from the eShop. It's time to scratch yet another long promised feature off the 3DS's Most Wanted List.
