How many editions can a game see?
Still happy for WiiU owners, RE4 is one of the best RE. A shame there's no REHD port yet.

I think I still want to play that game in 30 years so I hope we'll see a lot of versions.

And rightfully so. How is this version? Is it the "best" version? Haven't played this game sine the GC days.

Feel I need to point people to the image. its the Wii version, like how metroid prime trilogy and all are.

darkmark1987 · Oct 23, 2015

Don't see the point of this, they could have released the HD version instead and added in the wiimote as a controller scheme

Ban Puncher · Oct 23, 2015

Wii version?

Only 25% off???

Jethro · Oct 23, 2015

The HD-Version would be nice, but it's Capcom. For 10 Euros I will grab this nevertheless.

Omikaru · Oct 23, 2015

Did this version support traditional controllers, or just the Wii Remote + Nunchuck?

But that requires work.

LonelyGreyWolf · Oct 23, 2015

Surprised it hadn't been ported sooner. This game has got to be a runner-up for the most ported game released after the N64-era.

olubode said:

25% of 100%.

Muchi Muchi Pink · Oct 23, 2015

Capcom game on Wii U? Holy shit.

eltercero · Oct 23, 2015

Did the original support the Classic Controller? (I mean, can I play it with the gamepad?)

I believe it supported them even though it's not listed on the box.

olubode said:

20EUR, probably.

Sammy Samusu · Oct 23, 2015

Wii Edition is the best version of RE4. Just sayin.

AcceptableGhost · Oct 23, 2015

The Wiimote style controls in this game were really fun (albeit game breaking). I always thought it was a bummer they didn't put them in the new PC version as an option with M/KB (RE5 PC has an optional RE4 Wiimote style controls and it is pretty fun to play that way).

Eidan · Oct 23, 2015

Never liked the Wiimote controls for this game(I really sucked at aiming, was too used to the Gamcube controls), but nice for Wii U users.

Mpl90 · Oct 23, 2015

It's fitting it comes out next week. It's also the first third-party title to be released on Wii VC in the West (in Japan, Muramasa and Trauma Team have been released this Summer).

The Gamecube remake was also released for the Wii, they could easily throw up that version if they wanted

Same goes for 0

georly · Oct 23, 2015

God, do I get HD in the humble bundle or do I get this version with the (superior) wii controls!? Headshots for days.

$15 ($20)

Tales From My Ass, but plausible

Finale Fireworker · Oct 23, 2015

I would buy a Wii U again for this.

Firmly believe that RE4 was best on Wii.

Isn't it the pc hd re release the best version now?

LonelyGreyWolf · Oct 23, 2015

Regarding the controls; if you're interested in this game and haven't tried playing it with the Wii Remote + Nun-chuck, then definitely give it a try. You'd be surprised at how well the game plays with it. There are a few "waggle the Wii remote like crazy to avoid this boulder" moments, but they're very few.

Jawmuncher · Oct 23, 2015

I'd give them no more than 5 bucks.

Aostia · Oct 23, 2015

man, every time I see RE4 on a console I own, I want to buy it...but I already have it on both GC and Wii, and I played also the PS2 version, so...

GreyOcelot · Oct 23, 2015

i'm shocked they haven't just done a dirty port of the recent hd pc version on current gen

DXB-KNIGHT · Oct 23, 2015

Best version based on Controls.

yup. dat 60fps :0

can I aim with the pointer in some other graphically updated version?

TheMoon · Oct 23, 2015

Omikaru said:

It supports GameCube Controller (not on this version for obvious reasons) and the Wii Classic Controller (Pro) which means it will be playable with the actual GamePad buttons in Off-TV mode.

Best version hype.

Question is: Is the German version finally complete since they likely had to re-rate it for this release? The original GCN and Wii releases were missing the Ada bonus stuff.

Ivan 3414 · Oct 23, 2015

Wii Edition is still the best version. So excited to play this with the pointer controls.

LordOcidax · Oct 23, 2015

Best version. Day 1

Yes, you could use both gamecube or classic controller with this version.

I do too.

That pointer control scheme was amazing. Crank the difficulty up to max to compensate and it's quite the ride.

I'm kind of bummed that pointer system was not implemented in the PC version.

Lazy reasons.

giancarlo123x · Oct 23, 2015

The return of third party support!

redmetal86 · Oct 23, 2015

Huzzah for more Wii games on the eshop.

Does this count as a Capcom test?

Jonneh3003 · Oct 23, 2015

This is by far the best version of the game in my opinion, it just controls so well. Don't use a Classic Controller out of fear and if your playing the game for the very first time, have an amazing time!

Didn't even think about that! I'm sold!

Again!
