Missing Multicard characters - Mass Distraction - 02-07-2016

In the Nintendo DS version of the original Resident Evil, Deadly Silence, almost all STARS members are playable through the Multicard Play feature. The exceptions to this are Edward Dewey, Joseph Frost and Brad Vickers. This is most likely due to none of these characters having actual character models in the game.

Playable characters are (top row) Chris Redfield, Barry Burton, Albert Wesker, Forest Speyer, Enrico Marini, (bottom row) Jill Valentine, Rebecca Chambers, Kenneth Sullivan and Richard Aiken.

Kenneth is never seen without any body parts missing, Forest can only be seen zombified and Richard always has the giant snake bite on his body when normally playing the game so this is the only time they can be seen in normal condition.

The missing characters, though. Edward can only be seen in Resident Evil Zero despite being mentioned in the game's manual, Joseph only appears in the opening cinematic and Brad was never seen before appearing as a zombie in RE2 and still living in RE3. Since Deadly Silence was released after RE0, RE2 and RE3 Capcom should have had the character models at least for both Brad and Edward but I'm guessing it was just too much trouble to import them to the game. Interestingly enough this also means that Joseph is the only STARS member to never have had an actual character model since he only ever appears in cutscenes.
