A demo forResident Evil Revelationshas appeared on the 3DS eShop today. You should play it if you get the chance, but whatever you do, don’t try the demo more than 30 times — Reggie Fils-Aime’s top men will hunt you down.

Yes, in a bizarre twist, theRevelationsdemo is restricted to 30 “uses.” When attempting to initiate the software, a message will pop up saying as much, which has me thinking this could be standard across all demos. If so, Nintendo is really stepping it up in solidifying itself as a company unwilling or unable to adapt to straightforward concepts in this industry.
