Before you continue to argue with wrong numbers, here is what Capcom shipped as of 12/31/08:

11. Resident Evil 4 (PlayStation 2) - 2.100.000 (up from 2,050,000)
22. Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition - 1.500.000 (up from 1,400,000)

Must be one hell of a feet for Capcom to sell 2.75m when there are only 2.1m on the shelves, I wonder how they achieved this. Same for the Wii Version btw.

Interesting, I never looked at Capcom's financial reports to check the numbers. If you are correct, that further shows that the series is declining (unless the first two games are very overtracked).

@XiaoMay: I don't think we can entirely count the Wii's sales when in the context of the franchise's decline, because there should be quite a lot of overlapping with PS2/GC versions since it's a remake made for a later generation.
