wait im confused about RE.

so is resident evil: umbrella cronicles a brand new RE. or is it another port like resident evil 4 the wiimakesodafountan

I think Umbrella Chronicles will be a new RE game. Capcom just recently accounced a port of RE4 for the Wii which is basically RE4 GC with proper widescreen and Wiimote support. They're two different games. 

Also, it will have more emphasis on shooting than exploring.radnasty

 Which makes me giggle =] with joy.
