You really care this much about not getting two decent rail shooters at best? Good thing you're not a Wii only owner, those poor guys have been snubbed out of 99% of the great third party games.
Anyway, RE chronicles is fun I guess, but nothing to write home about. Me and my friend beat the whole game in one sitting and I proceeded to sell it a week later. Never played the second one, but looks like it's more of the same.
