Famitsu offered their first reviews on the Resident Evil 4 for the Wii in its latest issue, which just hit the magazine shelves today in Japan.

Of the 4 review scores given, two editors gave the game a 10/10. The other two were still lovin’ the Wii version enough to give it a 9/10.

The reviewers said that even though the content is almost the same as the GameCube title, the Wii-mote controls are to the games advantage, making the game feel like something fresh and different. One reviewer said that the game offers the feeling of being closer to the action as well as upping the tension.

Multiple reviewers agreed on two points, that the new controls are simple and easy to get into, and that even those who played the original will be able to enjoy themselves.

    I can't wait... yeah yeah its an old game... but one of the best.. and it just got better... aiming with the remote rather than a little plastic knob will rock. release day can't come soon enough!
  • It's funny, about 2 days before the rumors of this game coming to the Wii surfaced, I started to play the GC version on my Wii, then I heard the rumors and stopped playing.

    I beat RE:4 for GC back in January of '05 and I can't wait to play this version, such a great game.
