A reader with a sharp eye over at Go Nintendo has spotted a Wii version of Resident Evil 4 up at GameStop.com.

Seems like Capcom forgot to tell the rest of us this was coming, but then again, simply because a retailer lists an item for sale on it's website, doesn't mean they've got all their facts straight.

Unless Capcom adds some new features and improves on the visuals (as much as humanly possible) it's going to take more than just tacked on Wii controls to get me to buy this when I've got a GameCube copy of the game which plays perfectly on my Wii.

But can we get off the ports, please? As great a game as RE 4 is, there have just been far too many titles ported over to Wii with new control layouts. Since Capcom is also working on Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles perhaps the team working on the RE 4 remake will take some pointers from the Umbrella Chronicles team as far as controlling with the Wii remote goes. Umbrella Chronicles will be using the same over the shoulder aiming system introduced in Resident Evil 4 so I'm sure that team already has a method of how to use the Wii remote and nunchuk to the best of it's abilities.

GameStop.com listing for Resident Evil 4 (Wii)
Resident Evil 4 - Wii Edition - Go Nintendo
resident evil 4 is fine on the gamecube and should really stay where it is, if you think about there really is no need for them to port it over to the wii
:O

but, yea.. it's already on GC and umbrella chronicles is coming out...
Ack! Resident Evil 4 wasn't as perfect as everyone said it was.

If any GCN game gets retooled it should be Metroid Prime.
Again I'm not a graphics whore but sadly this game/port will be one of the best looking titles out for the Wii. At least the price is reasonable and I suppose those who don't already own it might be interested in picking it up.

That's what Corruption is for.

Like meBig Grin But Umbrella Chronicles is coming out next year though and this would be coming out this year.

Best Looking yes...

but what have we learned about ports....

they do not fair well at all.
This could end badly......

no suprise. my company has always done that.
If it's real I'm glad I sold my GC copy with my cube bundle on eBay.

DBZ: BT 2, The Godfather:Blackhand Edition, and Mortal Kombat looks promising as well. The number is few though.

I agree. Good ports are just one too few.
I wish there was a easy way to port a game.........
i was actually looking forward to it. enjoyed the original, but didn't get it. was hoping to get this one. sad now Sad

If it's porting to PS3 to 360 it's no problem but with Wii it's another story because of the controls and it takes time to get them right. That's why so many ports are bad, because the controls are rused an tacked on without any thought.

If they do this then I'd get it.
