* VindicatedByHistory: An interesting example between this game and ''VideoGame/ResidentEvilCodeVeronica''. They were released within a year of each other, with ''Code: Veronica'' being hailed as redefining the series and the true sequel to ''[=RE2=]'', while ''[=RE3=]'' was regarded as a mere side story, despite the numbered title. Nowadays, critical and fan reception has swung the opposite direction, with ''[=RE3=]'' seen as being a fresh take on the classic ''Resident Evil'' formula, while ''Code: Veronica'' is regarded as good (and it technically ''is'' a truer sequel to ''[=RE2=]''), but just another ''RE'' game. It's also the only game in the series that received anything close to a live-action adaptation in ''Film/ResidentEvilApocalypse'', with Nemesis being one of the franchise's most recognizable monsters,

Added DiffLines:

* JustHereForGodzilla: Nemesis is one of the series' longest standing popular monsters. He is highly regarded as the best thing about the game and for contributing a ParanoiaFuel feel to the game that was unlike the series ever had before.

* HilariousInHindsight: A bit of an obscure one. In the ''Versus Books Perfect Guide'' for ''Resident Evil 3'', the author, as a joke, pointed out the various similarities between Nemesis and Sagat from ''Franchise/StreetFighter''. At the end he hoped that "Street Fighter vs. Resident Evil happens someday soon!" Fast forward to 2011 and Nemesis is one of the playable characters in ''[[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]'' where due to the nature of the game, he can fight various characters from the ''Street Fighter'' franchise.

* CatharsisFactor: Finally killing Nemesis for good in the FinalBattle after he's been chasing you this whole game is one of the biggest examples of this in the series.

* EvilIsCool: Nemesis. The difficulty in fighting him didn't stop fans from loving him for the threat he poses.
