"Never let it be said that good things don't come to those who wait and wait and... well, you get the point. Having finally delivered a much-delayed firmware update to the 3DS last December, the Big N appears ready to make good on its DLC promises.  Starting tomorrow, gamers visiting the eShop will be able to take a tour of Racoon City and fire off a few shots at its zombie denizens with a downloadable demo of Resident Evil Revelations.  The company's only announced one other title, Mario &amp;amp; Sonic At The London Olympic Games, for later this month, but plans are on deck to refresh the service with new trial content from Rayman Origins and Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D, amongst others in the coming year.  Sure, it's no Kid Icarus, but this is Nintendo we're talking about -- you have to take what you can get.Show full PR text   FREE NINTENDO 3DS GAME DEMOS HEAD TO NINTENDO ESHOP    Resident Evil Revelations Demo Available Tomorrow    REDMOND, Wash., Jan. 18, 2012 - Nintendo 3DS&amp;trade; owners soon will be able to play free downloadable demo versions of select games.
