Late last year Capcom announced the console-sized adventure that is Resident Evil Revelations would arrive on a 4GB card instead of the standard 2GB card; this increase in memory size led to an increase in price as well, raising the retail cost to $49.99. Fans were not happy about the price hike, many saying that the price difference between the standard 2GD and 4GB memory cards are small, and from the looks of it the uproar may have persuaded Capcom to drop the price by $10.

Capcom issued the following statement:

"While we're confident in the game's value at that price, we're also exceedingly pleased to say that after weeks of effort, we've been able to lower the price to $39.99."
