04.04.2007 TWO RESIDENT EVIL GAMES COMING TO WII
From the depths of NeoGAF comes news that a Resident Evil 4 remake for the Wii has been confirmed thanks to new Famitsu page scans (seen below). That's not all though, there's also a new Resident Evil first person shooter game coming to the Wii, and just to make your jaw drop a little further, it's also an on rails game. The "Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles" FPS will focus on the destruction of the Umbrella Corporation. Basically a better looking Red Steel that will probably also suck. So how does the Wiimote work with the Resident Evil 4 remake? Translation from NeoGAFers:
"Beating the game adds Ada's "The Another Order"/"Separate Ways" from the PS2 version. Controls adapted for waggle, including Wiimote aiming. Waggle while holding down B to reload, waggle without holding to use your knife. Also comes with a trailer for Umbrella Chronicles."
So aim and shoot, hold B and wave it around to reload, and let go of B and wave it around for knife action. It's sad, but the Wii remake will probably manage to outsell the new Resident Evil game, even though most people who have Wiis already have Resident Evil 4 for the Gamecube.
