Oh, I thought Shinji Mikami was still with Capcom. So that new Suda 51 x Mikami game is Grasshopper x Seeds PlatinumGames. Wonder how that'll turn out.

Mikami did a lot of work with Clover studio and left when they were disbanded. He was also still upset with Capcom about them porting RE4 to PS2 over his head after he strongly disagreed with the decision to do so.

Oh. And I thought RE4 was timed exclusive. I didn't know they backstabbed Mikami :O

Not only did they backstab Mikami, but they gave the Gamecube the finger too.  They announced the PS2 version of RE4 2 months before the release of the Gamecube version with exclusive content.  Of course, it turned out the PS2 version played and looked like crap next to the Gamecube version, but they killed the sales of the Gamecube version themselves.  Mikami was really pissed about this and refused to work on anymore Resident Evil games.  He moved from Studio 4 to Clover, and then when they were disbanded left with them.
