Resident Evil 4 is the best game on the Wii, and you’re saying that Resident Evil 5 is PS3-exclusive? That’s no good.

Yep, that's the case. The Wii version of Resident Evil 4 got across-the-board reviews as THE definitive version of the game (clearly SUPERIOR to the Gamecube, PS3, and PC versions of the same game), and now the suicidal fools at Capcom want to make Resident Evil 5 "exclusively" for a system that sold half as many units. You have to wonder why no one bought the Playstation version of Resident Evil 4 if it was made for such a "superior" piece of hardware.

We Wii owners get the "spinoff, sidegame" Resident Evil: Umbrella Chroniciles instead.

Also, you will note that the Wii version of The Godfather: The Game (released as "The Don's Edition"), also received unanimous reviews as the BEST version of the game out there, outshining the PS3, XBox 360, and PC version in content, game control, smoothness, and sheer fun. The Wii version had all kinds of features that simply weren't possible on the "superior" PS3.

Interesting how whenever third party developers do release Wii and PS3 versions of a game side-by-side, the Wii version always does better and gets better press.

Of course anyone who actually owns a Wii and has played games like Scarface: The World is Yours, Fire Emblem, Metroid Prime Corruption, and Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None knows they weren't designed as "children's toys".
