    Think of how easy it most have been to 'port' RE4 to Wii, as well. I bet it's just running on the GC's chips (or whatever runs GC game sin the Wii).

    I've just noticed that Wii Sports and Wii Play have combined sales in Japan of 3 million, despite the fact that there's only 2.6 million Wii's sold in Japan. Now THAT'S impressive, don't you think?
    YOU HAVE JUST LOST THE GAME. Sorry. Smilie

    Ahh well such figures are never entirely accurate, and besides many will choose to but a Wii Play pack when buying an extra controller i imagine, rather than buying a stand alone remote. LS

    They did also redo all the PS2 sections with GC graphics.

    Yeah they removed all the crappy textures from the PS2 build with polished Wii ones and also optimized the Ada missions and Mercenaries game. That is said to be much faster and does not slow when there are masses on screen. It's essentially faster and you would think harder but then we can on the Wii version aim on the fly even before you go into target mode (great). It is also said to be improved with Widescreen support, as that helps with panning and targeting. LS

    Well most people just buy Wiiplay for the controller. Maybe they just want more controllers.

    We can only hope. I swore I would not buy this at over 20 quid, and I'm not backing down on that.
