The new footage shows that you can raid creatures with players all over the world! 

Capcom's new trailer of Resident Evil: Revelations shows that in addition to the campaign, RE: Revelations offers a new raid mode for one or two players, who play co-op either locally or online.

The raid mode seems to be an evolution from RE: Mercenaries 3D and the Mercenaries of RE 4 and 5. Like them, each numbered stage has a time limit, and the result of performance is graded. Players can select characters, some of whom are seemingly playable only in this mode. Unlike Mercenaries 3D, however, the raid mode offers a lobby for players to be matched up. Besides that, weapons are customizable with custom parts that players get in stages, and can level up.

The curtain seems to have fallen on the Wii's most trusted service.

Thursday marked a very saddening record for Wii Virtual Console fans all across Europe and Australia. PAL players received their last classic game on June 10, Super Adventure Island II (SNES) by Hudson, which came just around the launch of the Nintendo eShop.

Since then, NoE and NCL have shown no intention to continue support for the service, having now left the library in the same state for 20 weeks. Before this point, Nintendo was very consistent in its releases. Every two weeks they delivered games such as Final Fantasy III, Bomberman Hero and Chrono Trigger.
