Capcom Resident Evil 4 Remake - out now for PC/Playstation/Xbox

Ashley’s segment wasn’t only in the Japanese version in the original game. The Japanese only thing about that section in the original was it had classic Resident Evil camera angles as opposed to the third person camera.

Why wouldn't they do it? Resident Evil 4 has a huge fanbase, and all their other remakes were a success. No reason not to grab into more willing wallets again. And from a people's perspective, I suppose they are enough fanboys out there who wanted it really badly. No matter how it would end up.

Capcom announced the game sold 4 million copies on the second week it was out. This game is likely going to be one of their best selling Resident Evil games. So whoever over at Capcom thought remaking Resident Evil 4 was a good idea made the right call.

According to the official Capcom site 7 and REmake 2 have sold a million more if you count RE5+ RE5 Gold.RE5 gets more only if you add the PS4/Xbone editions,but 7 and REmake 2 are still two of their best selling titles ever

When you add up the gold edition of RE5 and the PS4/Xbox one versions, it is still the best selling game. It is selling to this day actually. I do not know why they do not combine different SKUs of the older games, but they do for the new ones. I.e. RE7 is combined with gold edition, but RE5 is spread among at least 3 SKUs.
That game was a Monster Hunter World of its era for Capcom moneywise.
EDIT:

Resident Evil 5

PS3, Xbox 360, DL

8.70

Resident Evil 5

PS4, Xbox One, DL

2.70

Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition

PS3, Xbox 360, DL

2.30

TOTAL: 13.7 Million of copies sold. The first, oldest SKU includes the steam version. Switch is not on the list as it did not make at least a million copies sold, but it is safely in the hundreds thousands.

i wish they published the budget of these games like they do with movies....

It's interesting what a huge sales success was SF2 back in the day

SF2 for SNES 6.3 mil
SF2 Turbo for SNES 4.1
Super SF2 for SNES 2
SF2 Champinoship for Mega Drive 1.65

That's over 14 mill total not taking into account other versions that didn't sell over a million,when console and video game sales were much lower than today and if you take into account the huge success that it was at the arcades and the lower cost of production compared to today's games it must have been a money printing machine

PS Mega Drive's SF2 sales were just 1.65 compared to SNES' 12.4,lol SNES master race baby,take that Mega Drive peasants

The thing with Street Fighter 2 is it was one of the biggest games ever made. It’s estimated Street Fighter 2 made $10 billion, with the vast majority of that being the arcades.

I’m a little surprised Capcom hasn’t made a new 2D Street Fighter (even if just a remake of Street Fighter 2) they can just put on everything. Something up to the visual fidelity of a Vanillaware game or something. The kind of thing they could comparatively do for a low cost. Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers sold half a million on Switch in a little under a year, and that’s just a Super Turbo update with two new characters.

They could make a really nice looking 2D Street Fighter with nice HD art for a little over a million and get a pretty great return with just the kind of numbers they got with Ultra on Switch.

I played the original and was dismayed at Luis making inappropriate comments about breasts of a teenage girl. Are such disgraceful lines fixed in the Remake?

Finally started playing this. It's good, challenging, with tons of gameplay variety. I never really know what's coming next. "Karma drops" do a good job keeping me almost out of ammo, and having to switch weapons a lot when I don't want to. The rudimentary stealth adds a new layer of fun. The combat feels great. I keep coming back to it to play "just one more sequence until the next typewriter" when I meant to be doing other things. If you're thinking about playing it for what it is (instead of what it's not), definitely grab it because what it is is good.

Just found out that Del Lago regenerate up to 70% of his HP pool every time he resurface
no wonder that fight can take a while if you miss

Killing both chainsaw guys in the Village Square on Hardcore (and starting from scratch) was totally not worth the time and effort I put into it. But it feels good to have done it (and rock the two emeralds I got from them). What an introduction to a game.
