This rumour just won't go away... could there be truth behind it after all?

Speculation has been growing over the past week that Capcom have are getting ready to Wii-releasing the magnificent Resident Evil 4, once exclusive to the GameCube, before they changed their minds and gave PS2 owners the chance to play an even better version...

But Wii owners may have the last laugh. After we initially reported last week on an American retailer listing the title (before it was shortly afterwards taken down), a number of other American and also Japanese sites have briefly listed the title. IGN is now reporting that one such Japanese site, Chadran Club, has even mentioned the title in their weekly e-mail newsletter.

Certainly, the title would sell on the Wii - to those who have yet experienced the much acclaimed game already, to those who want to experience it again but with Wii controls, and to those who missed out on the extras the PS2 version got, which would surely also be included.

Stay tuned for more as it breaks.
