"The reason that the Wii version is the best is because the new control system makes the gameplay more enjoyable. Using both the Wii remote and the nunchuck, players will be able to perform all of the regular moves and attacks from before, only now they can do them in a more sensitive, accurate and pleasing fashion." ...

"As improved as the Resident Evil 4 controls were compared to the tank-like schemes of its predecessors, they still aren’t ideal. The final version of the game would have been the perfect time for Capcom to polish the controls with new features that nearly every game now takes for granted – like strafing and being able to shoot your gun while moving. Unfortunately, Leon still isn’t capable of performing these basic moves." ... Read full review

"If you played the GameCube original, consider the Wii game the ultimate collector's edition – frankly, that's what it is; the culmination of the best from its predecessors with some added Wii improvements. And if you have never played RE4 before, consider the Wii release an absolute must-own experience." ... Read full review

Originally one of the best games ever, Resident Evil 4 can also add on of the best Wii games to its trophy cabinet.… Expand

This was one of the bes ever games I have played when it was on the Gamecube, now enter the Wii version, and it plays like a gem. Dissmiss This was one of the bes ever games I have played when it was on the Gamecube, now enter the Wii version, and it plays like a gem. Dissmiss what Jeff V has to say, and give it a go. The lack of movement while shooting helps create the sense of excitement that this game thrives in. And with the wii pointer to target now, aiming at enemies is a breeze(as apposed to analogue stick aiming, I dont know how people can still play FPS on the 360 and PS3, but thats another matter). There is quite a lengthy story to keep you going, and with different enemies and locales, this game never get boring. When you finish, you wil play through again. Ps- please avoid the pc port of Resident Evil 4, sticj to the Wii or gamecube versions.… Expand

This game is SWEET, as Peter from Family Guy would say. This is probably the first Wii game to really do the platform AND the controllers This game is SWEET, as Peter from Family Guy would say. This is probably the first Wii game to really do the platform AND the controllers justice and is great stuff, it runs at a good pace, the difficulty ramps up evenly as you learn. The only gripes (and these really are minor things) are that you are too close to the main character as he walks around, so you can't see enough around him, and the landscapes are very confined, you can go up to an area you can see flat land, but an invisible wall blocks you, so it's not truely free roaming. But those really are miniscule issues compared to the rest of a great game.… Expand

This is simply the best way to play the game, it really is a shame that the Switch version didn't replicate this control scheme/ aim system.

Awesome game and easily the best in the Resi series, whicch is some accolade considering how good the first three were. the story line is Awesome game and easily the best in the Resi series, whicch is some accolade considering how good the first three were. the story line is enthralling and the use of the Wii remote is ingenious and adds immensly to the experience, hats off to capcom for being a developer to fully utilise the potential of the Wii-mote. The game itself offers about 15 hours of play but the unlockable extras will keep you coming back for more.… Expand

It features motion controls that work pretty well once you master them. The game itself was not altered in any way like "Dead Rising" Wii edition. If you own other versions of RE 4, you don't really need this. But using the Wii-Mote to aim feels pretty cool and is more accurate than using a controller. I would rate this with a 9.2 out of 10.… Expand
