Is I just got off of work at Gamestop and yes, we are taking reserves for Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition which is currently dated for a June 25th release alongside Pokemon Battle Revolution the same day.

It will retail at $29.99 and only takes $5 to pre-order it today. Its been in our reserve database for the last four or five days.

I just wanted to clear up any and all ideas that this wasn't real.

That means two Resident Evil Wii games in six months with Umbrella Chronicles to be out at least by December, probably October.

Hmm, anyone think Capcom may be thinking about changing their minds about Resident Evil 5 on the Wii?

Why didn't they announce this? I dunno.

Why didn't they announce RE 4 coming to PC this year? Dunno but you can reserve it at Gamestop and have been able to for the last six months.

Its happening.

 

I think this game will get at least AAA even though its a Wii-make. The controls will be phenomenaul.

Not to be a drag, but I think this (if true) pretty much guarantees we won't see RE5 on Wii. They would canibalize each other zombie style.

My girlfriend would make sweet love to Leon right in front of me. Apparantly he's hot... Who am I kidding? I know he's hot.

Lol, at least one guy here is secure with himself. The rest of ya'll go join a frat:)

All I'm saying:

A) Three RE game close together on one system would be bad business for Capcom as they would eat up eachothers sales.

B)Leon is a handsome man.:)

C)What's so confusing about it? What are you guys Amish or something?

i'd rather stare at Ada.....but whatever if you prefer uglies.....

 i personally will buy this game especially for only 30 dollars that means it'll probably be 20 quid! that's a great price for probably the best game ever, and don't forget it'll have improvements, wii controls, wii motion sensitive sections, imaginge instead of pressing a to wind a lever you actually wind it, maybe new content, and hopefully great graphics that push past what they could do with the GC and show what the Wii can do

Man this is going to rock. And no joke, just earlier this week I was thinking how cool it would be if Capcom ported RE4 to the Wii while playing the GC version. 

 

I think the controls will rock. Hold B trigger to aim, and move the wimote to aim. The only problem I can think of is how will you look around with the lack of another anolog stick?

Probably because it isn't that big a deal.  I would assume anyone who really wanted RE4 has already bought it for GC or PS2.  people could also go out and buy the GC version of RE4 right now if they wanted. 

I think announcing ports for Wii or PC wouldn't get much attention anyway.  The market is probably super small anway.

True, I'd definitely get it even though I have it on the Cube already still. Problem is its an american copy and I'm in PAL territory (got it 3 weeks early that way). After a certain Nintendo executive said Wii would be region free I thought it wouldn't be an issue, but thats obviously bogus. The Freeloader boot disc won't work on Wii and I sold my Cube already :(

So is this game actually gonna have Wii specific controls, or is it just gonna be using the VC controller or a Cube controller?? Am I gonna be able to aim like in Zelda?? Cause that would be the bee's knees.

I'm a little worried it could just be a quick cash-in with badly optimized controls. The way it seems to be flying under the radar tells me they're not hyping it as pre-emptive damage control. Ninty spent a year optimizing Zelda TP for Wii controls (a few months for the sword action) and I still wasn't happy with it. I could be very wrong however. Off topic why does O'neill look like he's taking a dump? :P

Wow, I had no idea they were making a RE 4 wii-make. Thanks, I'll have to get that now. Never got around to playing the first one.
