Resident Evil 4 for PS2 48
slumpy writes "An article Gamespot is running states that Resident Evil 4, the highly anticipated exclusive from Capcom, will no longer be for Gamecube only, breaking the deal they had with Nintendo. Does this show Nintendo's third-party support dwindling even more?"

After years of promising Nintendo and its fans that Resident Evil 4 would ONLY be for GameCube, Capcom shows its true colors.
I am mostly angry because ports always go TO the PS2, and not vice versa. Viewtiful Joe did well on GameCube, and it was a great game. So it got ported to PS2 (and sold horribly). Resident Evil 4 is about the most hyped game on GameCube right now, so Capcom decides that they will avoid the whole "not selling well on PS2", and announce the port before the GameCube version even comes out.
Meanwhile... Onimusha and Devil May Cry are doing well on PS2, but nobody thinks to bring them to GameCube.
It's just irritating to a great degree.

I thought that Resident Evil 4 would really be the clincher.

Also, Nintendo has been very good to Capcom. They have even allowed Capcom to develop THREE Zelda games. Capcom has responded to all of this by stabbing Nintendo right in the back.
