 Of course it's not RE2 but Resident Evil the 1st, which was on Playstation, Saturn, PC, GameCube etc. And then it came back as Director's Cut once more

 and then it came back AGAIN as Resident Evil Rebirth 

 and then it came back as deadly silence on DS

Well it did sell 300,000 copies and didnt GC games had to sell like a quarter million copies to reach PC? i mean the  pricing diffrences between the GC and Wii is not that big since the hardware is based off the GC. 

Hope they come soon. I'm holding out on Super Paper Mario.

woot re4

 I thought 300K par region.

The Big N's new policies apparently preclude dropping the price on games, favoring instead to let them sink or swim by their own merits. While I'm sure that fans of budget gaming will hate that, Nintendo seems quite happy with it, since it means more money for them in the long run from people finally giving in and just getting the game anyway in spite of the $50 price tag. How long that will last depends largely on how well the tactic works, I suppose. Whatever the case, bully for Capcom and here's hoping they use this line wisely as a "second chance" of sorts for games they previously didn't advertise so well, such as Zack and Wiki.

Zack and Wiki definitely should be on Player's Choice even though it didn't sell all that great. FFT and Castlevania:SotN didn't sell all that well when they were originally released yet they both were put on Greatest Hits and good word of the mouth made sure gamers would buy those games in droves as they were re-released so I could see that exact same thing happening with Z&W. That game deserves it for being a good third party game for the Wii.

 

i hope this will come to the U.S soon

I'm not entirely sure that is a fair assessment of Nintendo's strategy ...

Nintendo has in the past (and will probably continue in the future) put their games into a budget library when their sales have fallen below a certain level. As a hypothetical, Excite Truck has sold just about as many copies as it will ever sell at its current price so Nintendo is (highly) likely to drop the price to $19.99 and sell it as a budget game; in contrast, a game like Big Brain Academy for the Wii continues to sell at a rate where it can sell another million copies before it would need a price reduction.
