Now that I was used to the way Resident Evil 4 used the analog stick, it didn’t feel weird anymore. It made me realise my combat abilities could be so much better, so I kept the nunchuck plugged into the Wii remote as I excitedly went back on my adventure. I got a perfect score on every single round, first try. The shooting gallery became a complete joke. I ripped off the Classic Controller cord and it felt like I had freed myself. It was the shooting gallery that changed my mind, however.

I shamefully could not adapt, and played half the game with the Wii Classic Controller. It must be a ploy from Saddler to confuse Leon and ruin the atmosphere to make him turn back and go home.

Surely this was not made by the US government. It looks so uncanny when Leon’s gun stays in place while the cursor darts around on its own. I was shocked to discover that the cursor does not move the camera, so you still have to guide it around with the joystick. Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition removes the iconic red laser sight from Resident Evil 4 and replaces it with a big ugly green cursor. I was a bit skeptical at first, as the Wii pointer works a bit different in this game compared to Metroid Prime or Conduit. The Wii Remote attachment issued by the US government allows faster, more precise aiming without taking up a briefcase slot. A new control scheme is our best chance to stop the Las Plagas virus from spreading. It seems to be beneficial so far, but I’ll keep you posted on any adverse affects. I can see a green cursor wherever I aim my gun. I’ve also been injected with a virus, it seems to have changed my reflexes. They took a sample of my blood and uploaded it.

I’ve arrived on the Wii U through the Virtual Console, some kind of digital download service.
