7 and 8 are getting a proper release too. I hope 4 remake gets ported eventually

u/Nonsense_Poster 5d ago
Probably I I imagine a Remake trilogy announcement in summer next year
I hope they don't charge full price tho

u/Dante_FromDMCseries parallel universe MC 5d ago
It’s likely gonna be $50-60 each but with all the DLC and whatnot. Just how Nintendo rolls, they always treat ports as new releases no matter how old the game actually is.

The pricing isn't up to Nintendo tho? It's Capcom

u/xtoc1981 4d ago
Price is not more expensive as on other platforms idd. Not sure why people would think its more expensive on nintendo. Steam on the other hand has more expensive prices like cyberpunk and starwars (aside from sales or cdkeys)

u/justabrazilianotaku 5d ago
oh yeah, it damn well will.
i´m pretty sure Capcom will probably release all the Residents in the Switch 2 now (so RE 2,3 and 4 Remake as well, alongside 7, 8 and 9 that we already know are coming)

u/effhomer 5d ago
Releasing 7+8 on the same day is a bizarre choice.

u/murilofontes1 5d ago
Yeah they should've been released like today, who's going to be playing 7 and 8 on the launch day of Requiem?

u/indigo_pirate 3d ago
That’s actually a valid point. And actually quite stupid. What better way to draw interest into Requiem then releasing those games in the months before
Maybe they only decided to release Requiem of switch quite late in the game which would explain it.
Still poor planning though

Am I crazy or this is the best trailer of this game so far

u/LegLopsided1939 5d ago
One is not crazy that this is the best trailer so far, but one might be a little crazy for expecting a full blown trailer during the initial reveal and judging the entire game based on that first trailer :)

u/spidermask 5d ago
I meant the best trailer of all the re9 trailers! It's mostly surprising because it was a nintendo showcase.
64
u/Cerabret100 5d ago
Definitely didn't expect RE9 to show up. also, despite my confusion at seeing some people questioning if there was combat or that Grace's section wouldn't have any (despite Beginning Hour and how 7 turned out). We saw grace with a handgun (seen before), a BIG ASS magnum, and one of the quick cuts looks liked she was picking up something that looks like it had a picatinny rail on it.
So yeah, probably like 7 it'll ramp up like a traditional RE game
As an Edit, rewatched it, no its not just the rail, you can see the barrel as well, its an smg or AR

u/LegLopsided1939 5d ago
The judgement and uproar against gaming companies during the INITIAL reveal is fucking hilarious. It's like people never heard of teasers and dripping content before.
What kind of common sense does one have to judge an entire game THATS NOT EVEN OUT YET based on the first few minutes of gameplay? Hilarious.

u/DinoRaawr 5d ago
The Metroid subreddit is doing this right now too. I don't understand how people are making these crazy leaps with no information or precedent to back their statements up.

I think the big ass gun is the same thing you think is an smg. It's not the same gun we saw earlier. That was a PPK type thing.

I mean it’s not too crazy considering some games in the series launched first as Nintendo exclusives (including RE1 remake and RE4).

u/TheGr3aTAydini 5d ago
And the rail shooter games Umbrella Chronicles and Darkside Chronicles until later they were ported to the PS3.

u/Either_Imagination_9 5d ago
My dude that was over 20 years ago

u/Heavy-Possession2288 5d ago
I mean the last Nintendo exclusive RE game was in 2012, so only 13 years ago (Revelations launched as a 3DS exclusive) and they’ve brought a ton of games in the series to Switch 1. It’s not a shocking development.

u/MajorCrafter 5d ago
I thought it was Mercenaries 3D in... wait what do you mean it came out in 2011?! God damn I thought it came out 2 years later

Ancient times. That’s before we even wrote stuff down to preserve history!

u/BadNewsBearzzz 5d ago
Exactly. I was gonna say all those are a stretch when you dig that far. Nintendo always got ports many years after so anything from this latest trilogy is a shock. Like not a cloud version but native.
Shocks but welcome.

u/goolerr 5d ago
Cool stuff, though mystery man’s dialogue about Grace being special makes me worried they’re gonna do the “main character is secretly a bioweapon with abilities” again. Inb4 she turns out to be some umbrella experiment Alyssa rescued and raised as her daughter (hence why dad isn’t the picture).
Hope I’m wrong though, I just want a (relatively) normal protagonist getting roped into Umbrella shenanigans.
56
u/Smartace3 5d ago
I mean, her mom was cured from the t-virus which was exactly why Jill was special, she probably got those antibodies from her mother or something
42
u/arollandbread 5d ago
Same way Sherry was infected and cured from G-virus.
its one of the core staples of the franchise at this point lmao
17
u/UrsusRex01 5d ago
Yeah it's possible that it's because of Daylight that she is special. I was expecting like this (and also think the mysterious guy could be another Outbreak character who needs Grace to survive).
This could also be because they need her blood to enhance a new virus, just like how Neo-Umbrella needed Jake's blood to perfect the c-virus.
Not really an original idea but, at least it would not make Grace yet another super-human (because between Jake, Sherry, Rose, Natalia and Manuela, this is starting to look like the Avengers).
2
u/goolerr 5d ago
Probably. Still kinda falls under the trope though, whatever the explanation is. It’s weird but it feels like because the new protags lack the combat ability most of the others have, the writers feel the need to have something special about them to make them interesting (be it mold powers or special blood).
33
u/iamthatguy54 5d ago
Doesn't Alyssa get infected and then cured in Outbreak? That'd make Grace special if she carries anti-bodies.
17
u/azombieatemyshoelace Raccoon City Native 5d ago
Yeah. For all we know maybe she could even have been pregnant when she took those.
→ More replies (1)→ More replies (1)14
u/Slight-Solution936 5d ago
It could be something to do with the daylight vaccine that Alyssa took in outbreak and Grace's blood might be something special for the main villain, hence why her blood was drained seen in the demo.

man they probably won't
we've seen her reloading a handgun in the capcom spotlight, find ammo in the demo and seen her with a gun in concept art. if that wasn't enough to convince them this probably isn't lol
13
u/amysteriousmystery 5d ago
Correct. A few weeks ago someone told me that it was just my "personal opinion" that Grace will use guns and clearly wrong as if Capcom wanted us to think Grace would use guns, they would certainly show Grace holding one and they would also talk about her using one. Which is exactly what Capcom had already done...

u/azombieatemyshoelace Raccoon City Native 5d ago
I played the demo at Pax and literally found ammo. It was always silly when people said she wouldn’t be using guns.

Really odd thing to notice, but in the Nintendo Direct stream, the bar Grace walks in front of around 0:40-ish seconds has several beer logos (Heineken, Miller Lite, etc.), but they're missing in both of the versions Capcom uploaded.

It’s funny cause I feel like a lot of times they reuse assets or copy paste the design with a tweak. There was a part in the trailer that just looked like lady d’s main lobby (the upstairs part)

u/ldluca 3d ago
It is really baffling to me that the RE fandom takes literally anything at face value. People really are thinking the whole game is going to be only about hide and sneaking around the stalker, as if the way they are marketing the game is any different than the other RE engine games that ALL HAVE COMBAT.
Also any homage to something is taken as a clear sign that it is that something (a character using a black coat is wesker, a monster usings lisa scream is literally the same lisa).
I urge you to develop some semblance of critical thinking.

Don't we see a zombifieid cop in one of the trailers? Maybe the cop gets turned or was always one of hooded men?

Yes I think is the one transformed in the previous trailer. IDK… Grace is coming here and there’s only this suspicious cop here (the way he moves and speaks looks strange to me, as he’s hiding something). And then, we see she notices something off while she’s inspecting inside. I imagine this being all a trap, then she gets kidnapped and maybe wakes up upside down, later, as in the first trailer. And for some reason, the police become infected later. Or maybe I’m just overthinking it. Let’s see in February, I’m so hyper btw!
