Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D gets Japanese release date, co-op
Your shiny new 3DS is nearly on your doorstep, but Face Raiders – while sure to send you down a slippery slope of giggles and tears far more effectively than you’d like to admit – will only last so long. You need something fresh. Something new. Something different.
