Resident Evil 4 for Wii shows up on Gamestop.com



















A reader of dedicated Nintendo blog GoNintendo noticed this listing on Gamestop.com, which will undoubtedly be removed post-haste, that reveals a Wii enhanced version of Resident Evil 4 shipping June 25th for $29.99.

RE4 is one of my favorite games of all time and I always wanted to play through the PS2 version with it's Ada Wong missions and widescreen support. The widescreen support came at the price of the game not looking as good as the Gamecube original however and I never bothered with it.

If they're bothering to bring the game over to Wii, widescreen 480p support is likely with visuals at least as good as Gamecube, possibly slightly enhanced (although at $30 it probably is untouched), and of course the extra content from the PS2 edition and maybe a little extra(new costumes?). Sign me up!

If the game is more than just a listing on Gamestop.com expect it to be announced at Capcom's Gamers Day event in mid-April. A Capcom rep has already previously hinted there will be "some Wii surprises" at the show...

Oh my lord, I may just have to become a Wii-ner now, too. El Gigante ain't got nothing on the Wii. I made a blog too, because I'm a copy cat like that. It's under BloodxStone, wo0t!
