replyI still don't get why this is being released as a standalone game. It'll be fun, but it's traditionally been an extra mode in core RE games. It's never been something I'd pay for on its own. Maybe that's just me?

I think it's being released as a standalone game because some people are super excited about the 3DS and its potential so they're going to go out and buy it on day one and then realize there's a very lackluster lauch lineup. They'll then be desperate to buy games for their new toy even if they wouldn't normally buy a RE: Mercenaries standalone game. These people will probably include me. =(
Although if it takes them too long to release it, and some other big name games are out, then disregard thihs idea.... -

Of course it'll be expanded, but for me it doesn't qualify as a standalone title. There's a precedent: Mercenaries has been an unlockable bonus since RE3. Even expanded, I'm having trouble wrapping my head around paying around 40 bucks for something like that. But again, that's just me.

Because it's a launch title, I guess. I have a feeling the 3DS library is going to be quite slim for a little while after launch.
