"He finally said that without Alone in the Dark, Resident Evil would have been a First Person Shooter in full 3D"
the OP also claims that "Capcom had an agreement with Infogrames that was preventing Mikami to mention the french game", but I don't think it's from the article linked (my French is way too bad to read the whole thing, though)
As far as I know, an NDA can't stop someone from mentioning an influence even in more extreme cases where one side is alleging that a person/group "stole" the idea. Croc: Legend of the Gobbos/Super Mario 64 [スーパーマリオ64] situation comes to mind, developers at Argonaut have always maintained their 3D engine was an inspiration for M64 and they even allege that Shigeru acknowledged this in private. This seems like a far more litigious situation and yet they haven't been stopped from spreading this allegedly true story around. This seems like Shinji either evading owning up to the influence or him saying this in a French interview to appease a French audience now that he has nothing to lose.
The only problem for me is that there are several dead ends that were never fixed, and you may have to start the game all over again just because of the developers' shortsightedness.
